Clayton Family,
I believe Spirulina is a salt water algae, chlorella is the fresh water
variety commonly sold in stores. Corrections welcome.

There are major differences between salt water algae (kelp, etc) and fresh
water algae, the first being that nearly all sea water kelp and other
algae is safe to eat, and many different kinds are used as food all over
the world.
Nearly all fresh water algae is poisonous. It is so toxic that one should
not even get their feet wet in a green puddle of water.
There are algal blooms in the ocean that are also poisonous, called the
red tide. No one goes in during red tide, and it kills lots of fish. There
are similar types of problems that occur with algal blooms in estuaries.
Kelp is usually Macrocystis species sea algae that is quite large and
grows nearly everywhere off the west coast of the Americas. It is also
called a sea vegetable, and also goes by Giant Kelp.
Spirulina is a fresh water blue green algae that is edible, according to
some sites I googled, however, I remain suspicious of the fresh water
algae. Some people might do well with it, if they have highly functioning
toxin removal systems.

Has anyone any idea what the difference between these two is? if there
is a difference, which would be the best all round supplement to have/or
both as the case may be? Also, does anyone have any advice re painful
knee joints and was this something to do with magnesium oil? Many thanks
in advance. Dee
