Ecogenya Daily Greens Chlorella & Spirulina Powder – 50/50 Blend for Smoothies & Juices
Couldn't load pickup availability
Ecogenya Daily Greens Chlorella & Spirulina Powder is a balanced 50/50 blend of broken cell wall chlorella and gently dried spirulina, finely milled to blend into liquid without clumping. It is part of our Daily everyday range, offered as a food with two ingredients and nothing else.
People often buy these two together without knowing they are quite different organisms. Chlorella is a single-celled green algae with a tough cellulose wall, mechanically broken in ours so it is digestible. Spirulina is a blue-green cyanobacterium with no such wall, milder and more savoury. Blending them evenly gives you the chlorophyll-dense green profile of chlorella with spirulina rounding off its grassier edge, which is why the 50/50 is the easiest of the three greens to drink.
How to use it: start with a small spoonful in a smoothie, green juice or water. Citrus and tropical fruit carry it best: pineapple, mango, lime, ginger and banana.
- Format: fine powder in 50 g, 100 g and 250 g
- Even 50/50 blend of broken cell wall chlorella and spirulina, nothing else added
- Vegan, non-GMO and gluten-free
- Third-party tested for heavy metals, with a certificate of analysis available, which matters more with algae than with almost any other ingredient
- Made in Canada from domestic and imported ingredients, and we plant a tree with every order

Fruiting body vs Mycelium and Spores
There is a lot of discussion around which parts of the mushroom should be used for extraction. Here is a short explanation:
In mushrooms, the part that is typically used for extracting nutrients and compounds is the fruiting body, which is the visible part of the mushroom that emerges above ground. This is because the fruiting body contains most of the bioactive compounds, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial substances.
The fruiting body is rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds because it is where the reproductive structures of the mushroom develop. These structures contain various substances that the mushroom needs for growth and reproduction, as well as compounds that help defend against pathogens and predators.
However, it's worth noting that different parts of the mushroom may have different nutritional profiles and concentrations of bioactive compounds. For example, some mushrooms also produce mycelium, the underground network of fungal threads, which can also contain valuable nutrients and compounds. Additionally, certain species of mushrooms may have medicinal properties associated with specific parts of the organism, such as the mycelium or even the spores. Therefore, the specific part of the mushroom used for extraction can depend on the desired nutrients or compounds and the intended use.
We always use the fruiting body for our extracts but we are also working on developing special compound extracts from other parts like the mycelium and spores. Keep an eye on our blogs and subscribe to our newsletter to get notified of these advancements as they happen.
