Product Reviews of Greens Plus - Green + With Wild Berry, 9.4 oz powderProduct Review: Greens + Wild Berry Burst Summary: 5 Stars
Good greens drink. Still has a little of that herbal nasty taste, but if blended in a smoothie not too bad. I really like what is in it. It has all the nutrients I have been looking for.
Product Review: Not Entirely Sold Summary: 3 Stars
I bought a jar, but I still don't really "get" this product. It can't function as a replacement for actual fruits & vegetables, because it doesn't have some of the essential benefits such as the fiber, the potassium, the protein, or the energy. And if you just want to make up for a diet that you know is deficient, I don't see why this would be any better than popping a vitamin pill.
I wish I could say it was an easy alternative to just having a multi-vitamin, but really it's not quite there, and a big reason for that is that it's repulsive. If I mix it in with some water and drink it straight, I feel the drink has the look and taste of pond scum. I tried mixing it in with my normal whey protein drinks, and the whey does a good job masking the horrible flavor, except then the sweetness of the berry flavoring really stands out, and gives the protein drink a strange saccharine taste. I think if I get a jar again, I'll try the non-berry version.
The concept of being able to not have to worry about eating a healthy meal every day is appealing, just like everyone else I can get lazy or too busy. This product is easy and all things equal it probably does help your health some. But it's not a miracle product, it shouldn't replace eating fruits & vegetables, and I'm not sure it's any better than a multivitamin.
Product Review: Put a little Green in your life Summary: 5 Stars
Will Greens + solve all your health problems? Probably not.
Will Greens + magically make you lose weight? Probably not.
Will Greens + make a super obvious difference in your life? Probably not.
HOWEVER,
You are not eating enough veggies. I mean, none of us are, unless we're apes at the zoo sitting around waiting for the nice lady to bring by the cart of lettuce and cucumber. Or perhaps rabbits. Chances are you eat some things that aren't that great for your body on a regular basis. You probably drank too much sometime lately. You might have had one more cookie than you ought to have the other day. Perhaps you really didn't need that third refill of movie popcorn last night. Will Greens + magically absolve you of your indulgences? Probably not. But what it will do is make you feel better in wonderfully subtle ways.
Since I've been taking Greens+ every morning I do feel like I have a bit more energy. I don't want to laze about in bed quite as much. I feel a bit more zing in my life, feel a bit younger in my actions and reactions. It could just be placebo effect, but it's still a positive effect! If you're curious about this product, buy one bottle and give it a try for a month. See if it helps anything, and if it does, great! It's so inexpensive as a supplement that you really can't go wrong giving it a try.
PROS:
- They changed the formula to where it now almost totally dissolves in liquid. It's not gritty and it goes down well.
- Doesn't taste horrible. I mix it with apple juice, which helps a lot, but it doesn't taste like ground up seaweed or anything.
- Very affordable as a supplement, especially through Amazon.
CONS:
- Has a lot of soy isoflavones, if you care about that sort of thing.
Product Review: Surprisingly good! Summary: 5 Stars
I had tried the original flavor Greens+ a while back. I didn't like it at all, and because of that, I couldn't drink enough of it to even finish the bottle.
Some time passes, and I realize that my diet still stinks, and I NEED a product like this. In a round about way, I found this Wild Berry Burst flavor and decided to give it a try.
As soon as I opened the bottle, the experience was infinitely better! It has a nice berry smell to it!
I prepared a serving, and was surprised that the flavor wasn't bad. It still LOOKS like swamp water, but the taste is tolerable.
It's not "great", but I can drink it and it's not so bad.
I discovered something brilliant though. I mix a serving of this Greens+ Wild Berry Burst, with a serving of my regular chocolate protein shake.
WOW, that's yummy! It's a nice chocolate/berry drink with NO nasty flavor at all!
I actually look forward to drinking that in the middle of my day!
If you're a picky eater like me, I couldn't recommend this product more!
I've tried to eat cleaner, and I know that Greens+ helps me get the nutrients that I would otherwise be missing.
Product Review: The Best! Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best of its kind. It also tastes great. Others taste like your chewing cud. I mix it in my protein shakes.
