Best Super GreensThe most commonly asked questions we came across when researching our Green Juice review
Greens
Blend 5.1g
The Organifi
Greens Blend contains Organic Wheat Grass Juice Powder, Organic Moringa
(Moringa oleifera leaf), Organic Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis, whole
plant), Organic Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris, whole plant), Organic Matcha
green tea (Camellia sinesis, whole leaf). That’s quite a lot and most of these
are pretty standard in greens powders, there’s not really anything special in
here and it’s pretty par for the course, as you’d expect you get most of the
benefits you get from adding healthy greens to your diet. The studies show that
most of the nutrition is passed on through powdered form, and this is all
pretty good. [3]
Wheat grass
juice for example has been shown to contain a decent amount of potassium, iron
and zinc which all sounds good so far.
Until you
look at the limited Organifi label, unlike a lot of other Greens powders
Organifi doesn’t even come close to meeting your micronutrient needs. Which is pretty
unusual, AG1, Super Green Tonik and most of the other big names manage to come
close to hitting all of your needs with the exclusion of a couple of vitamins
like calcium. This is not the good start that it promised to be.
Superfood
Blend 1.95g
Next up we
have the superfood blend containing Organic Coconut Water Powder, Organic
Ashwagandha, Organic Red Beet (root) and Organic Turmeric.
And whilst
we know that they dose Ashwagandha at 600mg and this means that the coconut
water would be higher based on product listing order (let’s assume 700mg). This
means that we have 650mg total for the rest of the ingredients. Turmeric usually
needs to be dosed at 1000mg to have any benefits [4]. As for beets, we have the
same issue, if you want the benefits of beets you’re better of getting a reds
powder.
So not terrible,
but it’s also not great.
