The In’s & Out of Chlorophyll

Feb 26

“I am healing and glowing as my body purifies & rejuvenates at a cellular level.”

There is magic in plants. Plants can thrive in both the harshest of conditions and the lushest of climates. They can grow to enormous heights, regenerate after trauma, and flourish with sunlight and water. While we can’t be plants, we can harness some of their magic for our own health.

Chlorophyll is a piece of that plant magic. Chlorophyll is the component in plants that creates their green hues, from vibrate lime green to muted dusty green, and co-creates with sunlight to provide nutrients for the plant. Chlorophyll also has many proven benefits for our divine human body as well.

On The Body

Using chlorophyll, or its derivative chlorophyllin, on the skin has been shown to reduce acne, lessen the appearance of large pores, lessen the signs of exposure to the sun, and generally help in slowing skin aging. Chlorophyll is a powerhouse of antioxidants and vitamins. Combine all that with the green tint to lessen redness and it is no wonder people are turning to this plant magic for their skin. A bonus benefit to applying chlorophyll to the skin – some studies have shown it can reduce the smell of personal odor.

In The Body

Adding liquid chlorophyll or chlorophyllin to water or smoothies has been gaining in popularity. While research is ongoing about all the benefits of this magic green goodness, our bodies are seeing many positive impacts. Increased energy, increased red blood production, boost in iron and oxygen efficiency, stimulation of the immune system, healthier hair, and an overall feeling of optimal health have all been reported by people using chlorophyll.

Getting started using chlorophyll is easy; add a few drops of liquid chlorophyll to your water as part of your morning ritual or drop some in your daily smoothie. Then, meet the day head on with your plant magic working to better your whole divine being.
