Chlorella's nutrition is locked behind an extremely tough, rigid polysaccharide cell wall, a kind of fortress. Human digestive enzymes cannot break it down, so legacy whole-cell algae supplements are poorly absorbed and largely pass through the body unused.
The fix is broken-cell processing: physically shattering the wall with high-kinetic bead milling, high-pressure homogenization, and targeted cellulase enzymes. Done gently, it opens the cell while preserving the fragile payload inside, so the dense nutrition becomes bioavailable.
Key takeaways
- →Chlorella's polysaccharide wall blocks human digestion.
- →Whole-cell supplements are mostly wasted.
- →Broken-cell processing unlocks the nutrition without destroying it.
