Anybody here drink it? I'm considering it but I heard it contains progesterone.

I have tried it before when I was real sick I don't think its anything we need on a paleo diet. Its seemed to do nothing for my stomach pains and I didn't notice any positive or negative effects from it.
I think It conflicts with the formation of healthy meat loving bacteria, and is basically only good for making vegetarians have less smelly farts.

Yeah, I was wondering if there was even a point on the paleo diet. Eating liver should supply the same minerals that are supplied in liquid chlorophyll.

I am thinking it could be useful for people with estrogen dominance, if it does indeed have decent amounts of progesterone. But, I don't know either..

Perhaps for vegetarians chlorophyll could improve hormonal imbalances, but once one is on a raw paleo diet the glands should actually rejuvenate and begin to work at optimal levels, returning the body to its natural hormonal balance, without the need to supplament with plant hormones, which from what I can tell are very inadequate and often interfere with the healing process.

I think chlorophyll's main use is against bad breath, so use it for that. Otherwise, as a food supplement it is a waste of time, even on a raw vegan diet.

Sounds like an vegan idea.
Cows eat chlorophyll. We eat cows. It's very comfortable and tasty. ;-)

Liquid chlorophyll if from a high quality source and fresh would be a good supplement to use occasionally. I consider chlorophyll to be a very important component for a plant, so it should have some properties that may be beneficial to people too. You can't take too much of it though, and there could be a thin line between what's appropriate for you and what's unhealthy.
Personally I eat a lot of vegetables and that's usually enough. I rotate the vegetables I do eat to get a variety going. I don't juice vegetables anymore, but still have a juicer and think it is a good tool to use if used appropriately , and not excessively long-term.
