Just ran out of the brand of chlorella that I normally use. However, I don't want to reorder more of that brand since it is manufactured in Japan.
With the radiation problems going on over there I do not want to order my usual brand of chlorella.
So does anyone know of a good brand of chlorella that will be a safe brand to get right now?
Where is the BioPure chlorella manufactured?
Thanks, Pam

I use KingChlorella by Allergy Research Group (iherbs.com), but I cannot seem to find out where it is manufactured. Good question.

iherb.com states "February 2010 - Please Note: We have been informed by the manufacturer of this product that it will be out of stock for at least 12-14 more weeks. We apologize for the delay."
But I am not sure where it is from either.
Though one of the reviews states that the person is from Hong Kong and she got it in 4 days from the states! (By Anita Tham From Hong Kong "in just 4 days from US to Hong Kong")

I got mine that is made in japan and stocked up since they did not just ship it.....nothing that is on shelves is from recent japan shippments. They are not sending items since the earthquake? I went to vitacost.com and got my yaekeam Chlorella while they still had it the other night.

I would buy it NOW... lots of companies are bound to have plenty of their own stock. But hurry.

I tried to get my usual brand the other day from the vitamin shoppe and it was already back ordered for 2 months.
Maybe someone else has it. Unfortunately I won't be able to stock up because I barely have the money to get one bottle right now which stinks.
At least that will get me through a month and then I can try to find another brand after that.
I will try to contact some of these companies to see where they are manufactured.

Biopure is grown under a controlled environment. I've been taking them and have had good results with them so far. Just started a week to ten days ago. You can get them cheaper here:
They don't have everything Biopure has but the Biopure Chlorella pills I purchased from nature pure nutrition saved me ten dollars over Biopure's price. I found this out from a thread thejoje started last week.

I have used chlorella from Morin Labs...their tele # is 877-856-
4860...to find out where it is harvested...doesn't say on the bottle
also comes in powder ( cheaper ) to make your own capsules...
probably not the cheapest brand but a good one...
Posted by gwb (Member # 7273) on :
Yeah, I encourage you to find out where it's grown and harvested. Also, ask the manufacturer to provide you with a fact sheet listing any metals that might be in the product or the percentage of metals or other pollutants.
I bought Planetary Herbs which is supposed to be a good brand and send them an email asking for a fact sheet on their chlorella. They never responded so I sent a second email. Still no response from them. No business from me.
You can't go wrong with Biopure.

Thanks!
Thanks for that link Gary! I actually use the biopure garlic and I see that it is $10 cheaper at the site you posted. So that is helpful.
I plan to call or e-mail some of these brands to see where they manufacture their chlorella.
Good point to also check and see what other metals might be in the product. I have worried about that before with some brands since I have heard they can contain pollutants etc.
