Description
Orihiro Clean-Cultured Chlorella Tablets | JHFA-Standard Green Whole Food – Japanese Supplement
Overview
Orihiro 清浄培養クロレラ is the classic Japanese green tablet: chlorella, a freshwater microalga, pressed into 200 mg tablets with nothing added but a trace of silicon dioxide to keep them from crumbling. "Clean-cultured" is Orihiro's term for indoor cultivation — a tank instead of an open pond, so quality does not swing with the weather. Chlorella is dense in protein (3–4 g per 30-tablet daily dose), chlorophyll, iron and B-group vitamins, which is why it has sat in Japanese kitchens as an everyday nutrition habit since the 1960s.

Who Is This For?
- People whose plates are light on vegetables and who want one plain, unflavoured green habit
- Anyone who prefers whole-food supplements with a two-line ingredient list over multi-ingredient blends
- Fans of classic Shōwa-era Japanese health staples — chlorella is as traditional as it gets

How to Use
- Take 30–40 tablets over the day with water or lukewarm water — for example 10–15 with each meal.
- The count is high because this is pressed whole algae, not an extract; the maker explicitly allows adjusting the amount to how you feel.

Cautions
- Taking warfarin or another anticoagulant? Talk to your doctor before buying. Chlorella is naturally rich in vitamin K, which works against such medication
- This is a food, not a medicine — it does not treat anything, and despite what many pages claim, it does not flush toxins or heavy metals out of the body
- Green stools or mild stomach upset can occur when starting a chlorophyll-dense food; begin with fewer tablets and build up
- If you take medication, attend a clinic, or are pregnant or nursing, consult your doctor before use
- Check the label of your pack — the maker notes package information takes precedence over web listings
- Keep out of reach of children; store cool and dry, away from direct sunlight

FAQ
Does chlorella detox the body or remove heavy metals?
No. That claim circulates everywhere and it is not supported: no food is shown to pull toxins or heavy metals out of a human body — your liver and kidneys handle that. What chlorella honestly offers is dense, whole-food nutrition: plant protein, chlorophyll, iron and B vitamins.
Why 30–40 tablets? That sounds like a lot.
Because each tablet is 200 mg of pressed whole algae with no fillers, the daily dose is measured in grams, not milligrams. 30 tablets are 6 g of chlorella. Split them across meals; the maker explicitly allows adjusting the count to how you feel.
Is it really Japanese if the powder is produced in Korea?
The declaration is honest and we repeat it honestly: Orihiro, a Japanese maker founded in Gunma, declares the chlorella raw powder as produced in Korea and finishes the product for the Japanese market. What we ship is the genuine Japanese retail article.
Is this line still in production?
Orihiro lists the clean-cultured chlorella refill among lines it retired in 2023, so availability is limited to remaining genuine stock. Every pack we ship carries its printed best-before date — check it on arrival as you would with any food.
How long does delivery take and will I pay customs fees?
Processing takes 2–6 business days, then transit depends on the carrier you choose at checkout. Import duties or taxes may apply depending on your country; for US orders duties are prepaid and included at checkout.
