CHLOROPHYLL
Chlorophyll is the pigment that gives plants and algae their green color. Plants use chlorophyll to trap light needed for photosynthesis.1
The molecular structure of chlorophyll is almost identical to the molecular structure of hemin. The only difference is the fact that magnesium is at the centre of chlorophyll, and iron is at the centre of hemin.3 In one study, small doses of chlorophyll markedly increased the speed of hemoglobin regeneration.4
Chlorophyllin is a semi-synthetic mixture derived from chlorophyll. During the synthesis of chlorophyllin, the magnesium atom is replaced with copper. Unlike natural chlorophyll, chlorophyllin is water-soluble.1
Dietary Sources of Chlorophyll:
Asparagus, bell peppers, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, green cabbage, celery, collard greens, green beans, green peas, kale, leeks, green olives, parsley, romaine lettuce, sea vegetables, spinach, Swiss chard, and turnip green.

Chlorophyll and Chlorophyllin |
|
Chlorophyll is the pigment that gives plants and algae their green color. Plants use chlorophyll to trap light needed for photosynthesis. The basic structure of chlorophyll is a porphyrin ring similar to that of heme in hemoglobin, although the central atom in chlorophyll is magnesium instead of iron. Chlorophyllin is a semi-synthetic mixture derived from chlorophyll. During the synthesis of chlorophyllin, the magnesium atom at the center of the ring is replaced with copper and the phytol tail is lost. Unlike natural chlorophyll, chlorophyllin is water-soluble.Unlike natural chlorophyll, chlorophyllin is water-soluble. Chlorophyllin has been used orally as an internal deodorant and topically in the treatment of slow-healing wounds for more than 50 years without any serious side effects.

How Chlorophyll Rebuilds Blood Cells |
|
The molecular structure of chlorophyll is almost identical to the molecular structure of hemin, which is a part of haemoglobin, a protein in blood that transports oxygen throughout the body. The only difference between the chlorophyll and the hemin is the fact that magnesium (Mg) is at the centre of chlorophyll, and iron (Fe) is at the centre of hemin. Scientists have observed the assimilation of chlorophyll into the body and found that at some point, the magnesium turns into iron. |

Chlorophyll and H"¶moglobin Regeneration after H"¶morrhage |
|
The question of synthesis of hemoglobin from chlorophyll arises from their closely allied chemical structures. Small doses of chlorophyll markedly increased the speed of hemoglobin regeneration. A magnesium-free water-soluble chlorophyll derivative also aided regeneration in large doses.
