Greens and Superfoods
Not sure what your macros should be? We can help you get started with a custom macro count.
I cannot speak for the benefits month over month but based on taste, convenience and price we’ve narrowed it down to our Top 3.
What did we want to find in a greens mix?
- Great taste – I do not want to choke it down.
- Well priced and easily available.
- No subscription needed.
- Good ingredients.
It is important to get in greens at every single meal. However, I recognize how hard that is for so many. So I decided to try every single greens mix I could get my hands on in order to bring you my honest review of each.
First and foremost – you should consult a licensed health care professional before starting any dietary supplement, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, or have any pre-existing injuries or medical conditions. Note – all greens were tried in room temperature water and mixed with a handheld small stir frother / blender.
#1 Mixhers – Hergreens
If you’re looking for something that tastes nothing like a green juice – this is it. It comes in single serve individual packs that taste as if you’re drinking a delicious flavored water. If you’re looking for something that makes you feel like you’re drinking greens … this is not for you! The convenience and taste of this green is what makes it #1 for us since you can take it anywhere.
ALFALFA LEAF JUICE POWDER This super-powered green helps support healthy kidney function, lower cholesterol levels, and blood sugar levels.
WHEATGRASS POWDER This green helps to reduce toxins, boost metabolism, and aid digestion. Its super-rich profile can also reduce inflammation, provide energy, and fight off oxidation.
KALE LEAF POWDER One of the original superfoods! Kale is one of the most nutrient-dense greens on the planet. Its nutrient profile boasts high antioxidants, iron, and more. It can help lower cholesterol and help improve overall health.
SPIRULINA POWDER This lesser-known green comes from a super powerful algae. It provides detoxing power, boosts liver and kidney function, and helps to cleanse and purify the body.
ENZYMES This blend gives your body powerful, digestive aids to improve gut flora and improve nutrient absorption.

#2 Bloom Nutrition – Greens and Superfoods
This is what I envisioned when I wanted a delicious green powder. I can taste the greens mixed with the berries but in the best combination possible. It has a thicker consistency than water but not in a gross thick kind of way. Mixes great, I have tried with a handheld mixing stirrer and in a blender ball cup. Tastes great with room temp water and over ice. This one make THE BEST green smoothies.
“no artificial coloring or flavoring, our blend contains the cleanest and most delicious blend of ingredients that are naturally high in micronutrients. Antioxidants like barley grass, wheatgrass and spirulina strengthen the body’s natural defense.”
“Just one serving a day helps decrease bloating and improve gut health, immunity and natural energy levels.”

#3 Your Routine – Green Routine
Another great one! I was surprised by this one to be honest. After two sips you start to notice the subtle but sweet watermelon flavor and it is delicious. It too gives the, “I know I’m getting my greens but this tastes too good to be true,” feeling. Mixed great with a mini hand frother and a blender ball cup. Tastes great with room temp water and over ice.

#4 Alani Nu – Greens
Tasted a lot of lime in this one which hid the greens well. Chalky. This was the top contender until we tried the 3 above.
