Sun Chlorella Corporation Achieves NSF Certified for Sport® Certification for Sun Chlorella Powder—An Indication of a New Aim at the Professional Sports Industry
TORRANCE, Calif. (PRWEB) December 06, 2017 -- Sun Chlorella Corporation (SCC) of Japan announced today that its US office, Sun Chlorella USA (SCUSA) will lead the effort for professional sports outreach. This is a significant development for the Japanese food and supplement company whose sales offices span across the globe in Asia, North America, Europe and Australia.
NSF International, formerly NSF National Sanitation Foundation, assists athletes, coaches, dietitians and trainers make more informed decisions when choosing sports supplements. As an independent, accredited organization that has developed rigorous standards, conducts tests and product certification, NSF International is recognized by the NFL, MLB, PGA, NHL and more.
Futoshi Nakayama, President and CEO of SCC/SCUSA upholds a family legacy of almost 50 years starting with his grandfather, Hideo Nakayama—founder of Sun Chlorella Group—and father, Tetsuaki Nakayama, Chairman of SCC. "This was a very appropriate decision for us," said Futoshi. "Like NSF's mission to protect and improve global human health, ours has always been centered on bringing the life-affirming and nourishing nutrition of chlorella to the world. Our Sun Chlorella Powder has met NSF's stringent certification process because of our commitment to the highest quality of products."
NSF Certified for Sport® Certification consists of several steps including: formulation and labeling, toxicology testing, GMP practices and procedures, testing and analysis, as well as product certification. In addition, NSF Certified for Sport® Certification spans observation of in-house laboratories and product traceability.
"We are very excited about this new certification and growth opportunity," said Jennifer Jimenez—Vice President and COO of Sun Chlorella USA. "We believe we represent and offer the best superfood supplement available, and now our Sun Chlorella Powder is accessible to the entire professional sports industry."
Sun Chlorella Corporation has developed the most digestible chlorella in the world using DYNO®-Mill technology, a product manufacturing process involving variances in pressure that can effectively disrupt and "pulverize" the almost indigestible cell wall of the chlorella plant. This gives SCC the advantage over all other brands, offering maximum digestibility and nutrition of chlorella. "The nutritional concentration of Sun Chlorella Powder is truly remarkable," adds Yoshi Nishimaki, International Department General Manager of SCC. "It offers a wide variety of vitamins and minerals, more cell-building nucleic acids than any other food source, all 9 essential amino acids, Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids, fiber, more chlorophyll than any other plant on earth and is 50% protein by weight. It is a true, nutrient-dense superfood."
