Introduction Chlorophylls are natural pigments in our everyday diet, especially with customers' rising preference for more natural and healthful habits. The antioxidant capabilities of both classes of lipophilic substances have been researched since disrupting antioxidant equilibrium appears to be linked to the development of several diseases. Methods This research aimed to evaluate the effect of injection with chlorophyll (30 and 60 mg/ml) on enhancing the blood parameters of rats. Twenty-one white male rats were included in this study and divided into three groups: control, 30 mg/ml, and 60 mg/ml. Results Treatment with liquid chlorophyll significantly increased white blood cells (WBCs), red blood cells (RBCs), granulocytes, lymphocytes, hemoglobin (Hgb), hematocrit (Hct), mean corpuscular Hgb concentration (MCHC), and platelets. However, it nonsignificantly increased mean corpuscular volume (MCV). These results confirm a great increase in important hematological parameters in response to exogenous injectable chlorophyll with concentrations of 30 and 60 mg/ml and at two different time points, 14 and 28 days after injection. The platelet count was significantly (p<0.001) increased after 30 mg/ml and 60 mg/ml. Conclusion These results show a significant increase in important hematological parameters in response to exogenous injectable chlorophyll. The liquid chlorophyll is recommended to increase blood parameters and improve blood characteristics avoiding anemia.
