chlorophyllin
binomial name: natural green 3
a natural body cleanser, this is derived from chlorophyll (extracted from plants) and then stabilized with copper and applied topically or ingested. chlorophyll is a naturally occurring antioxidant found in plants. when magnesium is replaced with copper, the body is able to cleanse itself of imbedded toxins by binding to them and carrying them away. with the increase in blood flow and oxygen delivery, the body can rid itself of impurities and there is an increase in antibacterial actions.
benefit: when applied topically, chlorophyllin is effective in eliminating odors from the skin and healing wounds and skin irritations by slowing the growth of bacteria. often used in cleansers and skin products, this ingredient acts mostly as a preservative and coloring agent, but is safe and non-toxic.
