👉 This study looked at two types of —chlorella and spirulina—to see how nutritious and healthy they are. It found that spirulina has stronger antioxidant effects, while chlorella may be slightly better at fighting cancer cells in lab tests. Both are rich in nutrients and show promise as ingredients in health foods and supplements
