So guys I’m getting older now significantly older so I’m finding myself supplementing a little bit different. I picked up a few tubs of greens by Ghost in a few flavors . My diet isn’t terrible but these support gut health and aid in digestion and there are a lot of antioxidants . Do any of you guys use greens and if so is there a superior brand ? I just thought this would be a nice addition health wise .
Greens Super Foods Supplement

Nothing wrong with the product you are using if the ingredients are legit/at the dosage they list. Not one of my preferences but that is because I have yet to find one that is better than Genuine Greens Detox. That is just an opinion, but none are perfect and these mixes usually have a lot of specific ingredients and lower amounts in a plethora of organ protecting substances or so called detox ingredients.
The so called ' super foods ' are in both which is great, but when I think of a greens drink I consider it a way of reducing the number of supplements for inflammation, protecting your organs, gut health, minerals/vitamins from foods, etc. It is a great addition, if you are unable to eat enough vegetables/fruits/and if you purchased the ingredients individually your monthly budget would be ridiculous.
Phosphatidyl Choline is one the proven liver protecting supplements and GGD is loaded with it.
Spirulina is one of the few supplements known with studies to protect the kidneys.
It contacts 8 bacterial cultures for your gut health albeit if you want a lot of these ingredients you have to find a store that keeps these in a cold environment and are significantly higher than listed in either.
I disagree with the way they list the GGD as Greens plus and then others as detox. One of the best ways to detox your body (if that is even possible) is to to reduce inflammation and contains compounds that have some evidence behind them to protect organs against toxic compounds.
Through time, some organs will recover from the onslaught of the toxins we run into daily.
I do not take this year round, some supplements yes, but considering my diet is already loaded with cruciferous vegetables, foods that are natural anti-inflammatory, never eat sugar or fast food - I consider this as a bonus.
I made a post for supplements on a budget and this is one product I recommended.

I have tried
AG1 tastes great supposedly the best on the market but very expensive
Prime protein greens, tastes like lawn trimmings was less expensive has a different blend of greens.
Canadian Protein greens, strawberry kiwi tastes great and the plain tastes ok. Has a different blend of greens again
I’ve stayed with the CP one as I already order protein from them and it’s good so I have a certain amount of trust in their products.
I look at this as a supplement and hopefully it adds something to overall health.
