I'm sure you remember learning all about chlorophyll in science class, but you may not know what this pigment found in plants (which gives them their green color and plays a key role in photosynthesis) can do for your well-being and health. Although there are some myths associated with it, the truth is that several studies highlight the health benefits of chlorophyll, from detoxification processes to fighting acne , acting from the inside out. We'll tell you all about it!

🏽 Chlorophyll helps fight acne.

What is chlorophyll?

Chlorophyll is the natural substance found in plants that makes leaves green and plays an important role in the process of photosynthesis, through which plants convert sunlight into nutrients. All green vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, spinach, parsley, and cilantro, contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is therefore found almost everywhere in nature, from the grass we walk on to the leaves of the vegetables we eat.

How does chlorophyll work?

Chlorophyll is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it a substance with enormous potential for well-being and health. Some argue that it is anti-cancerous, eliminates body odor, and helps with weight loss. While its benefits are significant, more research is needed to avoid exaggeration. These are some of the proven benefits of chlorophyll, for which studies have already been conducted:

  • Anti-inflammatory: A 2012 study concluded that chlorophyll and chlorophyll-containing products have anti-inflammatory agents that contribute to the body's well-being, and due to this action, may help combat the inflammatory action of acne.
  • Antioxidant properties : This is the famous "green power" of vegetables, even more pronounced in those rich in chlorophyll. Several studies have concluded that chlorophyll helps fight free radicals that cause the oxidation of cells and tissues, preventing health problems (from skin conditions to cancer).
  • Anti-aging properties: we know that vitamins A, C, D, and E play a key role in skin metabolism, stimulating cell regeneration. Being rich in vitamins A, C, and E, chlorophyll naturally supports this process, and studies indicate that when applied topically, it can help soothe sunburned skin.

How to take advantage of chlorophyll

And how can we benefit from all these effects? By eating plenty of vegetables, of course, especially green ones like arugula, parsley, and spinach, which are naturally rich in chlorophyll and provide the added benefits of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, facilitating digestion and absorption. But in addition to a balanced diet (always with plenty of water), maintaining a healthy lifestyle, with plenty of sleep, physical activity, and as little toxicity as possible (alcohol in moderation, for example) makes all the difference.

This is the base, of course, and then we can add a layer of "green" superpower, and take even more advantage of chlorophyll. An incredible (and super easy) way to get all the benefits of this pigment is with our Detox Drops , based on chlorophyll, rich in antioxidants that support gut flora, the immune system, liver function, and more efficient digestion.

And also... to fight acne.

But that's not all: did you know what chlorophyll can do for your skin? That's right. By consistently integrating chlorophyll into our daily routine, we support the body's cleansing mechanisms and the release of accumulated toxins, resulting in more energy and clearer skin! That's why chlorophyll is increasingly used to help fight acne, slowing down the inflammatory process from within. Detox Drops are a super effective and easy way to increase your daily chlorophyll intake: simply mix 4 droppers in a glass of water, ideally in the morning. Try it and enjoy!
