My brother was recently hospitalized due to shortness of breath, with a slight fever, due to extreme constipation caused by taking chlorella and spirulina combination as described in www.chlorellafactor.com
Was it the brand? He used Solgar for the chlorella and the Healthy Options brand for the spirullina. Initially taking some 2.5 grams of chlorella and 5.0 grams of spirulina per day.
It was my turn to test this theory on myself. I took the same dosages but used Solgar brand of spirulina. I took the same quantities per day. And I found myself constantly constipated! How can this be? I pride myself in dumping at least 1 per day due to my improved eating of fresh vegetables daily.
I tried improving my situation by taking 2 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil to help my bowels move. No avail. I experienced bowel movement intervals of 2 to 3 days. Very bad. To the point that I experienced a slight fever and flu like symptoms with headache. Darn. Obvious toxin build up and this is my third day!
Drastic measures, I had to hydrate myself and bought 2 bottles of Gatorade and gulped them straight down. I then took 4 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil. I drank hot green tea to get my bowels moving. It has to move tonight! Before I sleep!
I got a fair sized bowel movement. I know there is more stuck in my gut. But it will have to do for now. Immediately my headache stopped, my fever is down, and I’m here typing to report to you my experience.
I’m not taking that chlorella and spirulina combination again. It may have worked for Mike Adams, but it sure constipated me and my brother.
