Unimaginable power, functional plants

What is

This society aims to provide opportunities that researchers exchange opinions to analyze, identify and measure the functional plants such as Chlorella. Moreover, we aim to provide more information regarding functional plants and food ingredients, which are based on scientific evidence accepted by researchers, medical experts and so on, and contribute to create "society of health and longevity".

What are functional plants?

Plants contain various nutritional compositions; therefore, they have been used for keeping health since ancient times.
They are called "functional plants" because they are rich in ingredients which condition our body. For example, Chlorella, used as food, contains various ingredients such as protein, vitamins and so on, and these ingredients complement each other, not single. Chlorella promotes our health based on the concept of "whole food".
