NOW Liquid Chlorophyll: Nature's Green Powerhouse
Nature's Sunshine harnesses the powers of Chlorophyll in its NOW Liquid Chlorophyll formula β a convenient 32-oz liquid that delivers the benefits of this essential green pigment in a form your body can use every day. Chlorophyll is the pigment responsible for converting the sun's rays into energy through photosynthesis, but its benefits extend well beyond plant life.
This formula is built around sodium copper chlorophyllin, a water-soluble derivative of Chlorophyll. While natural Chlorophyll is fat-soluble and doesn't dissolve cleanly in water, chlorophyllin was specifically developed to be water-soluble, making it ideal for a liquid supplement you can stir into a glass of cold water.
NOW Liquid Chlorophyll supports natural blood-cleansing processes, encourages proper immune response, strengthens the body on a cellular and molecular level, and acts as a natural deodorizer. It's a simple, daily ritual rooted in both tradition and emerging science.
Supporting Blood Health, Immunity & Whole-Body Freshness
Blood-Cleansing Support: Chlorophyll's structural similarity to hemoglobin β both are tetrapyrrole ring structures β has long linked it to blood health. Traditionally, Chlorophyll-rich preparations have been used to support red blood cell processes. Research on sodium iron chlorophyllin formulations has shown clinical evidence supporting blood health in certain populations, though standard plant-based Chlorophyll (containing magnesium rather than iron) is best understood through its traditional role in blood support.
Immune System Encouragement: Chlorophyllin has been traditionally attributed immune-supporting properties based on preclinical evidence showing immunostimulatory effects and anti-inflammatory modulation. Traditional and naturopathic frameworks have long positioned Chlorophyll as an immune tonic. The spearmint aerial parts oil included in this formula also contributes: its rosmarinic acid and flavonoids have demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activity in preclinical studies.
Cellular & Molecular Strength: Chlorophylls present significant antioxidant activity through chelation of reactive ions and scavenging of free radicals, helping to prevent oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation. The chemical nature of the porphyrin ring allows chlorophylls to function as hydrogen donors, stopping chain oxidation processes.
Natural Deodorizer: Chlorophyll has been marketed as an internal deodorant since the 1950s. One study found that the administration of chlorophyllin was helpful in controlling body and fecal odors in 62 geriatric nursing home patients. A separate study in patients with trimethylaminuria found that oral sodium copper chlorophyllin significantly decreased urinary trimethylamine. Chlorophyllin has been used orally as an internal deodorant for more than 50 years without any serious side effects reported.

Who May Benefit from NOW Liquid Chlorophyll
This formula may be a good fit for anyone looking for daily support for their body's natural blood-cleansing processes, immune response, or internal freshness. It's especially appealing for those who want a simple, refreshing addition to their daily water intake.
People interested in traditional whole-body cleansing rituals may appreciate chlorophyllin's long history as an internal cleanser and detoxifier in naturopathic practice. If you're curious whether NOW Liquid Chlorophyll is right for your specific health goals, our naturopath is available for a free consultation to help you decide.
Important note: Since the safety of Chlorophyll supplements has not been tested in pregnant or lactating women, they should be avoided during pregnancy and lactation. Individuals with rare disorders of copper metabolism, such as Wilson's disease, should limit exposure to copper additives, including supplemental sodium copper chlorophyllin. Oral chlorophyllin may cause green discoloration of urine or feces, or yellow or black discoloration of the tongue β these effects are harmless. Oral chlorophyllin may also result in false positive results on guaiac card tests for occult blood.
Directions for Use
Take 2 tablespoons (30mL) in an 8 fl oz glass of cold water daily. Refrigerate after opening.
Many of our customers enjoy the refreshing, mildly minty taste that the spearmint oil lends to each serving. It's an easy habit to build into your morning or afternoon routine.

Frequently asked questions
Is NOW Liquid Chlorophyll actual Chlorophyll or something different?
This formula contains sodium copper chlorophyllin, which is a water-soluble, semisynthetic derivative of Chlorophyll. In chlorophyllin, the central magnesium atom found in natural Chlorophyll is replaced by copper, and the fat-soluble phytol tail is removed. This makes it dissolve cleanly in water, which is why most commercial Liquid Chlorophyll products use chlorophyllin rather than natural Chlorophyll. Chlorophyllin retains the porphyrin ring structure that is central to Chlorophyll's bioactivity.
Will NOW Liquid Chlorophyll turn my urine or stool green?
It may. When taken orally, sodium copper chlorophyllin may cause green discoloration of urine or feces, or yellow or black discoloration of the tongue. These are harmless cosmetic effects and are not a cause for concern. It's also worth noting that oral chlorophyllin may result in false positive results on guaiac card tests for occult blood, so let your healthcare provider know if you're taking it before such a test.
How does Chlorophyll support blood health?
Chlorophyll's structural similarity to hemoglobin β both are tetrapyrrole ring structures β has traditionally linked it to blood health. Research on sodium iron chlorophyllin formulations has shown clinical support for blood health in certain populations. However, standard plant-based Chlorophyll supplements contain magnesium (not iron) at their center, and robust human clinical evidence for standard Chlorophyll directly raising hemoglobin levels is still limited. The traditional use of Chlorophyll-rich preparations to support blood processes spans many cultures and decades.
Can I take NOW Liquid Chlorophyll during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Since the safety of Chlorophyll or chlorophyllin supplements has not been tested in pregnant or lactating women, they should be avoided during pregnancy and lactation. If you have questions about supplementation during these periods, our naturopath is happy to discuss your options during a free consultation.
Does NOW Liquid Chlorophyll really work as a deodorizer?
Chlorophyllin has been used as an internal deodorant for more than 50 years. A study found it helpful in controlling body and fecal odors in 62 geriatric nursing home patients, and another study showed it significantly decreased urinary trimethylamine in patients with trimethylaminuria (a specific metabolic disorder). However, modern evidence for this benefit in otherwise healthy people is limited and largely based on older or small studies.
Are there any drug interactions I should be aware of?
A case of delayed methotrexate clearance was reported following administration of a complementary medication containing Chlorophyll, suggesting a potential interaction with at least one chemotherapy agent. Additionally, chlorophylls form tight molecular complexes with certain chemicals, but controlled studies have not determined whether this mechanism might limit uptake of required nutrients or co-administered medications. If you take prescription medications, we recommend discussing Chlorophyll supplementation with your healthcare provider.
