hello i've got schizophrenia and have been advised by a naturopath to take two teaspoons of spirulina in the morning and two tablets of chlorella at lunch time. i also am on half a teaspoon of l=tyrosine a day. she said we need 7-10 times the amount of vitamins/minerals as a regular happy person would. in addtion to this she also said she doesn't want to detox me.
"It also helps carry oxygen around the body and to the brain. This is why chlorella is often called a 'Brain Food'."
And remember on the herbs2000 site "The levels of oxygen reaching the brain is increased" "and this can greatly calm him or her down"
"Getting back to the brain food topic, the GLA content of spirulina combined with the CGF content of chlorella (which repairs nerve tissues, remember?) provides a compelling reason to consume both of these micro-algae."
