You’ve seen the ads about green protein powder and watched influencers add it to their smoothies, water, or acai bowls—whatever they can get their hands on. They claim to offer a one stop shop for you to consume all your essential vitamins and minerals. But are they worth the hype?

They are made from a variety of leaves and fruits which are dried out and ground up. Spirulina and chlorella, are often added, and they claim that one serving will boost your energy, support immunity, and improve your gastrointestinal function.

Are They Healthy?

You’re more likely to receive the beneficial nutrients from whole foods, as most of the fibre and Vitamin C is lost in the production process. EVen still, you can boost the number of vitamins and minerals you absorb with a scoop of the green powder.

Are They Worth It?

We say yes. They contain prebiotics which can increase your good bacteria and keep the bad bacteria out, and it can help with constipation as well.

It’s hard to know how much of the nutrients added to supplements are absorbed into our system but they won’t harm you. You need to check to make sure there are no heavy metals or contaminants, so check for third party tests.

One of the best and easiest ways to improve your health is to add more vegetables to your diet, but sometimes getting veggies in your diet is hard. That’s where superfood powders come in. They’re made from dehydrated vegetables and other vitamins, minerals, and herbs. While fitness influencers swear by them and they can be found in grocery markets, are they too good to be true? Here’s what you should know before adding superfood powders to your diet.

Fiber Content

When making these superfood powders, the fiber found in fruits and vegetables is completely removed. Fiber is important for gut health, regulating blood sugar, helping you feel full, and aiding digestion.

Nutrient Composition

The vegetables used to make superfood powders are processed and usually dehydrated and ground into powders, which can affect the nutrient composition of the vegetables. To account for these discrepancies, other vitamins and minerals are added to the powders as well as herbs and sugar substitutes.

Pricing

Whole vegetables are much cheaper than powders, making them more budget friendly. Price points for superfood powders vary, but they can cost more than $75 for a monthly supply.

Should You Use Superfood Powders?

If you’re using superfood powders, you should use them in addition to vegetables, not as a replacement. They should be seen as a meal supplement, similar to vitamins, that provide extra nutrients.
