Chlorella

Chlorella

Chlorella is a green alga that comes in the form of powder. It's best added to smoothies, but you can include it in nearly anything. Studies in Nutrition Journal show that chlorella can decrease your total cholesterol by 1.6%, lower triglycerides by 10.3%, and decrease LDL cholesterol by 11%.

Chlorella isn't a common pantry item, but it's worth seeking out. It's often used in smoothies, but you can put it in any muffin, cake, or pancake mix.
