Where is this algae from?

Package indicates the algae is from a clean pure source ( Kalmuth Lake ?) Believe that an element of trust may be necessary on any supplement product and to deal with a manufacturer one does trust is essential. I use this supplement in my protein shakes along with fruit. I am pleased hope that helps.

I just confirmed - it's China or Korea. Just got this email from them" 1000mg Chlorella: While previously Taiwanese current country of origin is China or Korea. They are grown in controlled outdoor commercial fresh water ponds. They are processed in their respective countries and packaged here in our Bloomingdale, IL USA facility. I too want to find a source that is not China.

What little I found out from digging around is all organic spirulina comes from India. Take this with a grain of salt because that info came from a website that claims to sell to companies that sell us organic. The best organic I ever had came from hawaii and is now owned by another company that no longer grows organic also the color of there spirulina has changed to a more dull green as before was a deep blue green that had almost a liquid look. The Pure Synergy company claims to grow there own in the USA. Good luck on finding the actual truth and let me know if u find something that is actually USA grown. Good luck Mindi

Well chlorella is a type of algae. Therefore if you can verify that the species of algae in the "broken cell wall algae" is chlorella, then there should be virtually no difference--aside from dosage and perhaps other ingredients. But those both would be labeled.

I keep only freshwater fish so I don't know if the fuzzy red algae is truly algae or something else. Algae problems are generally caused by an over abundance of nutrients in an aquarium. These nutrients can come from food, decaying matter, and fish waste. The best way to solve algae problems is to reduce the amount of available nutrients. A power head will allow for more water movement, but will not solve algae problems. I would first make sure that the fuzzy red stuff in your tank is truly algae. There are many on-line resources that can assist you in identifying your fuzzy red menice and which can suggest solutions. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

Made in Korea, according to the package, but there's no telling exactly what body of water the seaweed was farmed from.

That's a difficult question, you may have to ask World Organics. The label states: purified water, Decoction of Atlantic kelp (fecus vesiculosis) if I'm reading the fine print correctly.

As far as I know, it is just chlorine. This is the only product that I use in my pool and I have never had any algae. I have an Intex easy set pool.

I don't know. The label says "environmentally controlled ponds." Call 1-800-9NATURE or visit www.naturesway.com and ask. Japan's chlorella market seems to have collapsed since the disaster. All commercial chlorella comes from China, Taiwan, Korea or Japan. More research might be necessary to find out the "cleanest" source.

The metal part looks like it might be stainless or chrome plated. It looks like a nail with the point cut off. Inside is a ball bearing made of the same material. The body of the device is made of plastic/nylon. I am guessing.I have not had any algae issues since purchasing them.

Stakich claim it is from Kona, Hawaii. They are not forthcoming about who makes it. I know Cyanotech don't, and as there are no other spirulina producers in Hawaii (according to extensive Internet searching, and according to Cyanotech, who make the Nutrex brand), this leads me to believe it likely does NOT come from Hawaii. See my review for the full story.

Craig, NOW Certified Organic Spirulina is processed and magnetized in India. Why they do that is unknown to me. Probably so that we get magnetic personalities that charm people. Haw!
