NOW Liquid Chlorophyll | Blood & Immune Support

Discover NOW Liquid Chlorophyll from Nature's Sunshine β€” supports blood cleansing, immune response & whole-body freshness. Learn ingredients, directions & FAQs.

What It Is

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.

How It Works

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.

What's inside

Key Ingredients

sodium copper chlorophyllin β€” 90 mg
Sodium copper chlorophyllin (SCC) is a water-soluble, semisynthetic derivative of Chlorophyll in which the central magnesium atom is replaced by copper and the fat-soluble phytol tail is removed. This makes it dissolve cleanly into water β€” unlike natural Chlorophyll, which is fat-soluble. SCC contains two related copper-containing compounds (trisodium copper chlorin e6 and disodium copper chlorin e4), both retaining the porphyrin ring structure central to Chlorophyll's bioactivity. Chlorophylls are principally extracted commercially from sources such as alfalfa, grass, nettles, and spinach. SCC has been used in traditional medicine since the mid-twentieth century, with documented applications in wound healing, anti-inflammatory use, and as an internal deodorant. Studies suggest SCC may support the body's defenses against environmental toxins β€” a landmark randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 180 adults found that chlorophyllin three times daily produced a 55% reduction in urinary aflatoxin-DNA adduct biomarkers versus placebo. Research also suggests Chlorophyll derivatives may support liver detoxification by binding lipophilic carcinogens in the GI tract and reducing their hepatic exposure. Chlorophyll's structural similarity to hemoglobin has historically linked it to blood health; wheatgrass and other Chlorophyll-rich preparations have been traditionally used to support red blood cell processes, though controlled evidence for isolated Chlorophyll supplementation in this role remains limited. Chlorophyllin has been traditionally attributed immune-supporting properties based on preclinical evidence, and naturopathic practice has long positioned it as an immune tonic. As a whole-body cleanser, Chlorophyll has been used for decades based on its documented ability to bind carcinogens, support detoxification enzyme systems, and reduce gut-derived toxin absorption β€” though the broader 'whole body cleanse' concept is rooted in traditional use and naturopathic practice. Natural chlorophylls are not known to be toxic, and no toxic effects have been attributed to chlorophyllin despite more than 50 years of clinical use.
spearmint aerial parts oil
Spearmint (Mentha spicata L.) is an aromatic herb in the Lamiaceae (mint) family, native to Europe and southern temperate Asia, with a long history of traditional medicinal use across cultures β€” from ancient Roman baths to traditional Iranian medicine for digestive support. Spearmint essential oil is rich in carvone and limonene, the signature compounds that give it a sweeter, milder character than peppermint. The herb also contains important phenolic compounds including rosmarinic acid, caffeic acid, and flavonoids such as luteolin. In this formula, spearmint aerial parts oil contributes to immune support: research suggests its rosmarinic acid and flavonoids modulate immune function through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and immunosuppressant mechanisms documented in preclinical studies. Rosmarinic acid has specifically demonstrated immunosuppressant activity, including inducing apoptosis of activated T cells in preclinical models. Spearmint is Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring agent.

Who It's For

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.

How to Take It

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.

FAQ

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.
