We use the poultices on bruises, injuries, bites, and with the chlorella added it makes a huge difference. Dr. Bernard Jensen was doing this in the early 1990s. He found that it was a wonderful thing to do. It is food therapy in more ways than you thought.
Multi-generational chemical toxicities
Mike: Let me ask you a deeper question with the detoxification of chemicals and the role that micronutrients and micro-algae nutrients, like chlorella and CGF, can play in that; there is an increasing awareness now that the chemical burden on our population is multi-generational. |
| Liers: The first thing that hits my mind is that chlorella is a 2-billion-year-old organism or older. That means it has survived every catastrophe on earth through all the generations. It is a tremendous survivor. How do you become a tremendous survivor? Obviously, you have to be able to repair your genetics. The growth factors come into play there. There are organisms out there -- little bacteria that you can hit with radiation that would kill anybody else -- and they will so quickly repair their genes. |
| Jensen's book about chlorella you can see rabbits, chickens, and birds, and when they gave them those growth factors, those animals at the same age as the placebos were twice as big. That is quite an amazing story.
The growth factor is a major factor. People are coming to understand this now. When you talked a little bit about homeopathic factors, there may be things we do not quite understand yet about all of this. We use the term "growth factor" but we are not sure exactly how that is working and what it means. |

The epigenetic factors are starting to be recognized, and we are realizing that the toxic load of someone today is passed on through multiple generations. |
| My wife got very itchy in her skin, and she had worked in pathology labs and pipetted radioactive materials, and maybe that is a reason she was chemically sensitive. chlorella makes her feel wonderful, but you can see the skin breaks out for some period and a lot of people say, "Oh I am breaking out."
Well, in Japan they tell people to expect this, and it is not going to be when you first take it, probably because it has a building effect. As you build maybe two or three months into it, suddenly you will break out in a rash. |
| They were selling chlorella in these little tablets, and for years and years in little granules. Then the capsules came out. These products were good, but people were not getting the amounts they needed.
To get that detoxification effect you need to have enough of it. I decided I was going to get some powder. Then everyone was worried about dealing with powder, and it is kind of messy. It is green and I love it. If I have a green mustache it's all right with me.
Mike: Better that than a milk mustache.
Dr. Liers: That is right, much better. |

You can also find chlorella in a variety of superfood products at any health food store. chlorella varies widely in quality. One of the best brands of chlorella is Yaeyama (from Japan).
Gotu kola: This herb has been used for centuries in Asia as natural medicine. Gotu kola - also called marsh penny, Indian pennywort, and British pennywort - helps in the treatment of scars and wounds with infections that have not yet reached the bone. |

It is very nutrient-dense, so much so that the 1989 special edition of the World Health Organization stated that chlorella supplies all the minerals, vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, as well as chlorophyll, that the human body needs for good health. It is noted for a property called chlorella Growth Factor which gives it the ability to promote tissue repair and growth. It is readily digestible and is a very suitable alkaline food for all ages, from infants to the elderly.
Chlorella is particularly valuable for its ability to remove modern-day toxins from our bodies. |

Chlorella: Japanese studies have found chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) to be especially effective in speeding up cell growth, a major factor in the natural repair of wounds. Various other studies reveal CGF helps heal ulcers and promote bone and muscle growth. When taken internally, it also acts as an immune-booster. Topically, it functions as a protective cleansing compound for skin.
Chlorella is found in numerous superfood products, including Rejuvenate! from Health Products Distributors, Inc. at http://www.IntegratedHealth. |

I think chlorella is as close, in my book, as any single superfood comes to doing it all. I think that you find many vegetarian people who for years have been doing nutritional yeast at 30 grams per day, they feel that yeast is the ultimate in complete nutrition. I combined them; chlorella is my main component in there. It is high in RNA, and high in chlorophyll, more by far than anything else we know. |

SP1RUL1NA AND CHLORELLA
Rich in chlorophyll, minerals, vitamins and a great source of protein, chlorella and spirulina regulate cholesterol, promote antiviral action and stimulate the immune system. The ancient Aztecs called spirulina the 'sacred power plant,' and believed it was endowed with the energy of the sun and had remarkable energising and rejuvenating properties.
Spirulina is derived from freshwater algae and contains a complex abundance of enzymes, vitamins, minerals, trace elements and amino acids and other biochemicals. It is now grown in aqua farms. |

It blew me away when we started researching chlorella for nutrition. There was almost nothing on the Internet. That is how I found your book. Besides Bernard Jensen, you did something, and that was all there was to be found. There was nothing else out there, so to speak.
Now you can do a search for chlorella and find many websites having these long, humongous write-ups about this phenomenal stuff. It is becoming a big thing, which just makes me very happy. There are some signs that we are waking up. Again, going back to what I said earlier, I feel that I am in the forefront. |

The detoxification capability of chlorella is due to its unique cell wall and the material associated with it. The cell walls of chlorella have been shown to have three layers of which the thicker middle layer contains cellulose microfibrils. Atkinson et al found a 14nm thick trilaminar layer outside the cell wall proper which was extremely resistant to breakage and thought to be composed of a polymerised carotene like material.
Laboratory studies showed that there were two active absorbing substances ? |

Knowing something about chlorella and superfoods, I also took chlorella before that appointment, because chlorella binds with heavy metals and prevents them from being absorbed by your system.
The next thing he did was put oxygen on my nose only, so I could breathe through my nose and get fresh oxygen. Why is this important? Because, when dentists start drilling out the mercury, they're creating mercury vapor, or airborne mercury particles, and you certainly don't want to be inhaling those into the delicate tissues of your lungs. So, you need to get protection by breathing oxygen. |

Chlorophyll is an excellent liver remedy. chlorella (a food algae) is one of the best sources of chlorophyll. It can heal liver toxicity and supply needed minerals to this hardworking organ. It can also soothe bowel tissue, stimulate bowel function, and reduce Candida overgrowth. A typical dose is 100 mg of chlorella daily. Other sources of chlorophyll are barley juice, wheat-grass juice, and spirulina (available at most health food stores).
Eliminating Yeast
As noted above, chlorophyll can be effective against Candida. |

They're adopted healthier lifestyles, turning to raw foods, juicing, superfoods and microalgae like spirulina and chlorella. They've realized that the drug companies are full of bunk, and that no pharmaceutical has ever cured any disease. Yet diabetics, heart disease patients and cancer patients and reversing their diseases like never before by turning to a plant-based diet, engaging in regular exercise and avoiding all toxic chemicals (including those in foods, drugs and personal care products).
To those people who still think for themselves, pharmaceuticals are largely irrelevant. |

Consumer expectations: Getting past the "greens" factor
Mike: In terms of the consumer response to that kind of product, in my experience, some health consumers will only drink those things that look like they have a fruit color, a fruit taste and are sweet enough. Then there is another group, which is, of course, a smaller group that we consider hardcore nutrition people. They do not care if it is green or if it comes from micro-algae. |
| We were also taking a lot of chlorella growth factor and we started to fill out muscularly. This is what RNA does for you. The same thing was happening to me. I had all gray hair on my chest. Now it's half-black. My skin started getting better -- my brain started working better.
Rejuvenate! is a combination of all of these things that are synergistic -- working together. You can look at it as rejuvenation. You can look at it as RNA. People are starting to go in that direction, even if they do not always understand what it means yet. |
| So we got into chlorella. Then he talked about Dr. Frank and we started putting this whole picture together of what we call the "RNA Lifestyle." It is getting to be huge. It is going to be gigantic. Even from a pharmaceutical point of view -- they are trying to make specific RNA they will inject into your body and repair a genetic defect.
In other words, you can actually reverse aging when you consume nucleic acids. My son, Fred, and I started eating 20 to 30 grams a day of it, maybe more. Then we started combining it with other nutrients. |

If your metabolism is not working correctly, you are not making ATP. chlorella is a tremendous rejuvenator of ATP in the body. Even at a simpler level, those co-factors that you need -- the B vitamins and minerals -- they make that happen. They set the foundation for energy production.
You can have toxic chemicals blocking mitochondria, too. Those are all components. I think the first component is low nutrition. They just do not have the nutrition. I think second is the toxic component. You build up toxins in the body; you block enzymes that make things happen. |
