Chlorella
Chlorella is a nutrient-rich algae supplement, but safety data during breastfeeding is limited. Some sources note potential for heavy metal contamination in lower-quality products.
Chlorella is high in chlorophyll, vitamins, and minerals. Like spirulina, quality control is a concern — some products have been found with heavy metal contamination. Safety during breastfeeding is not well established. If you use chlorella, choose a reputable brand with third-party testing for heavy metals and contaminants.
Always confirm with your doctor or lactation consultant before making dietary changes while breastfeeding.
