They grow their grass outdoors through winter as opposed to growing them indoors and on trays which allows the greens to develop deeper roots and take in all the nutrients and essential minerals from the soils.

To find the best greens powders, we tested 19 top-rated greens powders in The Verywell Testing Lab.We reviewed each greens powder for flavor, aftertaste, texture, smell, and value, recognizing that this can be subjective and differ between individuals. We ranked each product on a scale from 1 to 5 (1 would not recommend, 5 would highly recommend) in each of these categories. We tested each product by mixing it vigorously in a glass cup with a spoon. Each cup contained eight ounces (or the recommended amount) of water with one serving of greens.

Greens powders often contain a wide variety of ingredients. It is essential to read the label carefully to ensure a product does not contain any known allergens or ingredients that may interfere with current or ongoing medications you’re taking. For this reason, it's also very useful to choose a greens powder with a fair degree of transparency. For example, if a company manufactures its product in a facility that also processes nuts, it should state this on the label.When it comes to cost, Amazing Grass Greens Blend is reasonably priced compared to other green superfood supplements on the market. Maddi Osburn, RDN, LD suggests that while greens powders make it easy to get some nutrients from vegetables, they aren’t a substitute for eating whole vegetables—which are much higher in fiber and other nutrients. However, a greens powder can be helpful when you aren’t able to eat as much produce (if you’re traveling, for instance), or for those with increased nutrient needs, like athletes. Due to their often concentrated vitamin and mineral contents, greens powders essentially act as a multivitamin, filling potential nutrient gaps in your diet. Just because a supplement is not tested by one of these three companies does not mean it's a bad product. We recommend doing some research on the reputability of the manufacturer and calling the manufacturer and their testing lab to determine their protocols and decide if you feel comfortable consuming the supplement.
