Abstract
Although considerable number of publication have appeared in recent years, little is known about the mechanism of chlorella extract on pregnancy anemia.
The present study was designed to measure the volume of red cell, hemoglobin, serum protein, serum iron, serum potassium, serum calcium and sodium among pregnancy anemia during three months.
It was observed that the serum iron of chlorella extract groups increased more remarkably than that of another groups.
It is presumed that stimulus of reticule endothelial system mainly causes the increase of serum iron, and nutritional influence by folic acid and protein of chlorella substance is very small.
