Chlorella is a chelator of mercury. There are a few good brands of mercury-free, tested brands of chlorella out there. The one on Dr. Mercola's site, Yaeyama, is supposed to be free and tested. also, the one in my refrigerator, Nature's Sunshine won a gold seal award for testing mercury free. I will list some that are supposed to be the best available. When chelating mercury, it is necessary to use a combination of supplements, as some mobilize the mercury and some bind to it and carry it out of the body. Click on the picture at the bottom for a list of known mercury chelators.
Chlorella is comprised of a fibrous, indigestible outer shell (20%) and its inner nutrients (80%). It is the fibrous material that has been proven to actually bind with heavy metals and pesticides like PCBs, that can accumulate in our bodies.
This detoxification of heavy metals and other chemical toxins in the blood will take 3-6 months to build up enough to begin this process depending on the dosage of chlorella a person is taking. It is also this fibrous material that greatly augments healthy digestion and overall digestive track health.
[Those who claim chlorella is not a chelator are measuring it by the heavy metals excreted in urine. However, 90% of the mercury is eliminated in feces. In Addition, mercury takes time to be eliminated and such tests do not encompass that.]
Chlorella plays a particularly crucial role in systemic mercury elimination because the majority of mercury is rid through stool. Once the mercury burden is lowered from the intestines, mercury from other body tissues will more readily migrate into the intestines -- where chlorella will effectively remove it.
I was fortunate to team up with Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, the world's leading authority on mercury detoxification, to write a ground-breaking paper that reviewed evidence supporting Amalgam toxicity and described practical and effective techniques -- like the use of chlorella -- to facilitate mercury elimination. It was first published in the Journal of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine in March of 2001.
Chlorella contains enzymes such as chlorophyllase and pepsin, which are digestive enzymes. Enzymes perform a number of important functions in the body. In fact, you can not even blink without the presence of enzymes. Chlorella has many different types of enzymes that our bodies need.

Chlorella binds with aluminum and other heavy metals to pull them out. Chlorella also enhances mobilization of mercury compartmentalized in non-neurologic structures such as the gut wall, muscles, ligaments, connective tissue, and bone.
Chlorella is an important part of the systemic mercury elimination program, as approximately 90% of the mercury is eliminated through the stool. Using large doses of chlorella facilitates fecal mercury excretion. After the intestinal mercury burden is lowered, mercury will more readily migrate into the intestine from other body tissues from where chlorella will effectively remove it.
Chlorella is not tolerated by about one-third of people due to gastrointestinal distress. Chitosan can be effectively used as an alternative in these individuals. Chitosan makes up most of the hull of insects shellfish and also bind metals like mercury from the lumen of the intestines.

All BioRay Products are cold processed, concentrated extracts made from the highest quality ingredients available in the world today, ensuring purity, biological activity and bioavailability.
NDF
NDF is a patent pending, proven dietary supplement for the treatment of heavy metal and chemical toxicity.
"NDF" refers to the manner in which the active ingredients are suspended in the liquid, and stands for Nanocolloidal Detox Factors. NDF is produced using a proprietary manufacturing process which assures rapid absorbtion and 100% bioavailability of the ingredients, including cell wall decimated Chlorella, Cilantro and the bacteriocin components of multiple probiotics.
NDF Plus
NDF Plus is a patent pending, proven dietary supplement for the treatment of heavy metal and chemical toxicity. It contains NDF plus fulvic acid complexes and concentrates of probiotic predigested drainage and support ingredients including agaricus blazei and milk thistle.
The fulvic acid restores the electrical potential of the system and thus allows for improved utilization of the ingredients. NDF Plus also contains suspended probiotics for enhanced nutritional support.
NDF Quality Control Measures
1. Six different sources of Chlorella were evaluated for heavy metal contamination, and only two were found to be contaminant and mold free. These are the ones that we use.
2.The nanonization process occurs in a closed, sterile environment. Given that the process breaks down the cell walls of Chlorella and the probiotics, any other spore or microbe present (there are none) would also be killed.
3.The water used is of the utmost purity in the world. It is regularly checked for contamination by an independent lab.
4. Post nanonization, the material is tinctured in 3 column distilled, 4 stage filtered grain neutral spirits. The alcohol level is at 20%, serving as a preservative and sterilizing agent.
5. The bottles and droppers are sterilized in 10% hydrogen peroxide and then rinsed with UV sterilized reverse osmosis water. Certificate of sterility of final product from Silliker Labs on file.

The Mitigation of Methyl Mercury Vapor Inhalation and Exhalation in People with Dental Amalgam Fillings - Abridged
©2002 Timothy Ray OMD LAc
Abstract
It was found that NDF in the amount of 10 drops repeatedly and effectively bound 100% (dose related) of the mercury vapor precipitated by chewing, and did not cause the precipitation of additional mercury from amalgam fillings into the oral cavity, as measured by atomic absorption spectroscopy. Other substances tested did not perform effectively, and normal chlorella in equal amounts was 50 times less effective.
"Tim has done something simple, yet profound by making all of the valuable aspects of chlorella bio-available. NDF and NDF Plus have been scientifically proven to be the most effective and safest heavy metal, chemical, & neurotoxin chelators in the world today."

it took 50 times more normal chlorella to bind as much mercury vapor as NDF. This explains why most of the testing done with normal chlorella has shown it to be 'lacking' as a heavy metal chelator.

Why "Nanonize" the Ingredients?
Chlorella is known in mining to bind heavy metals to its cell wall. Yet many people have taken Chlorella with no benefit. The reasons are that all of the available chlorella is not really 'cell wall broken' and that most of it is already contaminated with heavy metals. Enclosed are before and after micrographs of our processing of the best, heavy metal free, currently available "Broken Cell Chlorella" taken at 400x on a DarkField microscope:
The picture clearly shows that not only are ALL of the cell walls in tact, but the individual diatoms are tightly clustered in groups of about 500 units each. This would be very difficult to digest and may explain why some people get gastro intestinal distress when taking normal chlorella but not with NDF. Nanocolloidal cell wall decimated chlorella has never been available so far!
Mid nanonization. You can see the single free chlorella diatoms during the middle of the process and the beginning of cell wall destruction. Colloids of the cell walls can be seen in the surrounding liquid, the nano colloids remaining invisible to the light microscope.
his micrograph is post centrifugation and reveals the colloids made from the chlorella during nanonization. You will notice that there is no particulate matter in micrograph A. In this micrograph you cannot see the millions of scintillating particles at .1 microns surrounded by a 'protit veil', or haze of smaller particles.
In addition to binding to heavy metals, Chlorella has other beneficial effects, augmented by putting it through this process, including: increased elimination of toxins, growth hormone regulation, a powerful nutritive impact and protection from radiation.
Why does it work?
The following is essential to the understanding of this supplement: The ingredients are in a nanocolloidal form. A mathematician friend of mine calculated that there is at least a 500-fold increase in available surface area and a dramatically reduced particle size, thus rendering each ingredient more bioavailable and effective. That means the effective bioavailable dose is roughly one five hundredth of the dose required compared to using a dose of the original ingredient. This is why 50 milligrams of nanonized chlorella achieves what 25 grams of normal chlorella cannot. Most toxin-burdened people have compromised assimilation and utilization problems and cannot benefit from macromolecules.
In the past, Chlorella was only known to mobilize a small amount of heavy metals via the bowel. In NDF, because it is nanonized, 'molecular components digested off the nano particles can be absorbed across the GI wall into the bloodstream and have a possibility to enter the brain depending on the molecule' ? a possible explanation of why it can facilitate elimination via the urine.
PolyFlorTM contains fulvic acid. This could be the underlying reason why healthy bowel flora is so vital to good health. However, just taking a flora supplement will not provide heavy metal detox of the same magnitude as NDF. Please see www.fulvic.com
The major health benefits of both live and cell wall broken beneficial bacteria are described by recent clinical research in The Handbook of Probiotics. Lee, Nomoto, Salminen, and Gorbach. Pub. Wiley & Sons, Inc. '99. Unfortunately, once the Amalgams are put into the teeth, or the toxic body burden becomes too great, or if a person only consumes processed and pesticide grown foods, these powerful allies no longer stand a chance of sharing their healing benefits with us.
Summary
Based on the results of comparative 24 hour urine samples analyzed by an independent clinic and lab, a person can safely excrete up to 920% (9.2 times) more heavy metals per month taking NDF daily as compared to doing one DMPS intravenous injection per month. This greatly shortens the time required to achieve detoxification, an average toxic adult person requiring a maximum dose of 2 mls. twice a day for a period of about two months. NDF has also been observed to remove other toxins from the system.
To our current, best understanding, the predominant route of excretion is via the urine, thus accelerating the excretion rate of the mobilized metals as compared to the fecal route, decreasing the possibility of enzyme and leaky gut mediated resorption through the bowel, and decreasing the burden on the liver. The majority of the metals to be mobilized and eliminated per dose are quickly detectable in the first urination following the dose. Fecal Element studies show an average of 38.4% reduction in fecal metals following 5 days at maximum dosage while urine levels remain elevated. Individual pathways of elimination have been noted.
Independent real time digital EEG studies show a beneficial effect on the electrical activity of the brain, specifically raises the heavy metal suppressed beta waves to normal levels (from within 5 to 113 minutes post ingestion and lasting at least 4 hours) with a concurrent dramatic increase in the urinary excretion of heavy metals and patient reports of subjective improvement. This proves that no 'healing crisis' is required during heavy metal detox while using NDF.
