Do Greens Powders Work?
So you've heard about greens powders...
But want to know, do they actually work?
We dive into this blog post to find out whether greens powders actually work!
Yes! Greens Powders do work.
Greens powders are a fantastic supplement to add into your already well-balanced diet, they are NOT a substitute for eating your broccoli.
So if you're looking to stop eating vegetables all together, then you're looking at greens powders for the wrong reasons....
Greens powders allow you to give your body and extra BOOST of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are naturally occurring in the ingredients within the product such as broccoli, spinach and carrots powders.
This is instead of supplementing with something such as your supermarket multi-vitamin, where the vitamins and minerals are synthetically produced and not as easily absorbed by the body.
So, what is a greens powder?
It's just vegetables dude!
Put plain and simply, it really is just a perfect blend of vegetables with some other green stuff thrown in...
In more specific terms, greens powders most popular ingredients are:
- Spinach
- Broccoli
- Carrots
- Fruit Extracts (to help with the taste!)
- Digestive Enzymes
- Greens and Grasses
Then you have the really green stuff such as spirulina, which by itself taste like the scummy water you'll find sitting on the top of your pond in your back garden. Which is quite apt considering Spirulina is a type of blue-algae!
But... when blended in combination with other ingredients such as vegetables, fruit extracts and a little sweetener, it creates a power house of nutrients designed to give your body the exact top up that it needs.
So I Don't Need To Eat Any More REAL Vegetables?
Err... not quite.
