I’ll stick to smoking my greens
both for best results
There’re missing the point here, it’s a supplement. When you need to get just a little extra nutrition on top of a healthy diet. People who take these are not at McDonald’s every day.
Ironically, the commercial I got on this video was for Pizza Hut…😂
i got olive garden
Olive garden here
I got no commercial because I have TH-cam premium
@@Afterimage_Rush There were no advert on mine, and I have no premium lol.
I got AG1
I had bloom greens and it helped me so much. I bought it to decrease bloating and it worked. I hope it helps someone.
Stop the cap
@@highvalue1195 lame
i always be bloating right after finishing my meals at the restaurant so i really need it
Bloom is a scam
This is not a “latest health craze”. And most certainly not something you can fully cover in 4 minutes. I have been drinking powdered vegetables every day for 7 years now and believe I am much healthier for it.
What brand do u recommend?
@@chaddy60 I’m so happy you asked! So I have a couple:
My old favorite was paradise herbs orac energy greens. They have a great blend of vegetables, fruits, and a bunch of antioxidant ingredients that honestly I would just say to read the label to see what’s in it. Also no proprietary blends so you know exactly how much of each ingredient is in there
- the greens I use right now is Huel daily greens just because it tastes WAY better than orac energy greens. But don’t get me wrong orac energy greens is an amazing formula the taste is just very much resemblant of celery and it’s got a gross texture and the huel just tastes much better in comparison. Only thing is it has proprietary blends so if u look at the label it doesn’t tell you how much of each ingredient is inside. HOWEVER, I trust huel as a company and they are laser focused on making sure they add everything a human would need into their products so I think these greens are a really good choice. Price is more expensive than orac energy greens but in my opinion it’s worth it.
- ok one to avoid is athletic greens. They charge SO much for what’s in the product it’s insane. Just avoid. Yeah ingredients are good but there is No Justifying $90 for a 30 serving pouch.
I switched from AG1 to the $20 a month Costco one. I feel the same on both
Great! What is the name of the Costcos brand?
@@angelawilliams2445 Costco
@@angelawilliams2445 Most likely “Kirkland”.
@@shawnecmc5190 thank you!!
@@angelawilliams2445 You’re welcome. That’s the brand name of their own line of products.
It’s funny that the pharmaceutical companies that we wholeheartedly trust, aren’t there to prevent, but wait fur you to get sick and then treat. And make billions.
well said
To be fair, millions of people willingly expose themselves to cigarettes, alcohol, fast food and soft drinks, and don't exercise, so their bodies are just rotting from the inside out. Pharma companies are just the vultures watching and waiting for the person to collapse so they can have their feed.
Along with the powder, just add frozen spinach or kale to the smoothie. Fills in the fiber gaps, checks the box for adding real veggies to your diet (plus frozen spinach/kale doesn’t lose any nutrient value when compared to fresh, apparently), cheap on the wallet, and has the benefit of freezer longevity.
Thanks for that info
AG1 is 92 dollars a month with tax. There's no way I'm buying a product that expensive and have to add more veggies for fiber or anything else.
Or just skip the 90 dollar powder and just have the smoothie with the fresh fruits and vegetables. A lot cheaper that way
Never grind KALE!
@@sergioknuf Nothing wrong with grinding/ blending Kale.
Soooo pharmaceutical drugs are safe? Even though there are studies there are a ton that damage organs but they are still prescribed. I'm looking into making my own organic greens powder because so many of them are super gross and some have ingredients I dont want to consume. But I do have Country Farms Super Greens in the meantime until I make my own.
You would think they would test efficacy of their product before the product comes out which was stated near the end of the video. I’ll just stick to individual pills for now and not the multivitamin version. Seeing 1% to 10% of daily dose of most ingredients is sketchy to me imo.
i tried a red powder juice before and i bought it in costco. it has a gruesome taste but my bowel movement is great. almost everyday i pooped 2-3 times and it was really massive
Wow, that's a lot of pooping lool
@@WillPutYouToYourPlace i knkw hun. it really flushes all your waste. try it.
What the name?
@@Ecko92 red juice
An honest doctor!
I been taking AG1 for a couple of days and I can definitely feel a difference in my energy.
This is more than added nutrition, it’s literally the best food for all of the cells in the body. It’s not about instant gratification either, it’s for long term care and prevention.
I'm a smaller guy, I just don't even enough veggies never have. But I use supergreens and have for a couple months now, and have gained weight I was never able to before
what brand I got force focus . haven't started yet. Being a small female the only thing that's helped me gain weight rapidly was birth control
@@FoxyBeanz Mines. Called "supergreens" I have it with a protein shake every morning, and a bananas some milk and froze strawberries, a big trick I've found is just add calories where ever possible. Sauces, snacks (nuts, pepperoni, dried fruits etc). And solid sleep
They should go the CoVID Vax route, do a study and then try to hide the data for 75 years. The FDA then will approve.
Amazing!
AG is expensive. Period.
kinda
I use Amazing Grass. Under $30 a month.
coming back here to say THIS IS NOT A LATEST HEALTH CRAZE. editors calling everything a craze because they don't do it themselves
It might not be the latest but it is a craze. And a pointless one
@@whatever833 it's not pointless and not a craze, if you have the right one you are drinking pure nutrients
I know - green powders have been around in my country for at least 20 years. I was confused by the video, because it comes across as if Americans have only just discovered green powders now.
@@whatever833It’s legitimate vegetables, just dried and ground down to powder. It’s good for people that forget to eat their vegetables.
I can’t stand “news” pieces like this. They’re only looking to dismiss the products.
A couple of things to note:
*Have a fiber supplement if you’re not getting enough fiber. Many doctors & “nutritionists” often try to dismiss the supplement by saying it’s not equivalent to fruits & veggies >- only
The FDA just like modern medicine, is by design meant to support the billion dollar pharmaceutical companies
I have an immediate resentment for companies that don't test the efficacy of their products transparently. That goes for not just supplements, but skincare. Otherwise its all based on placebo.
Should CVS test their own brand of acetaminophen (Tylenol) to prove it works???
@@susanwojcicki3581 industry studies should be taken with a grain of salt
why would it be based on placebo if it gives you nutrients that you otherwise lack in your diet?
but yeah, if you already have a well-rounded diet then you don't need it
I mix it with my instant coffee powder. Its effective in my experience
whoa
What about a how it’s made episode on ag1
AG1 is a bit expensive and I don’t like subscriptions for food or supplements
me neither
overly priced tbh it shouldn’t be more than 35 that’s pushing it
Just get a blender and make green smoothie
We eat way too much salt sugar saturated foods gluten junk food
Green powder makes me poop 💩. I get my feel good from exercise.
MASF Greens is by far the best one. Proven.
Min 0:48 what do you think of supplements Dr?
They are good supplements
Wow! This is news...thanks doc
LOL he said "They can supplement your diet."
NO way, really??? A DIETARY SUPPLEMENT can supplement your diet. Wow.
All the supplement companies claim they're going to do a study😂😂
You have to try it I trust that they'll work for you and just cuz foods and drinks taste doesn't mean that they're healthy cuz of sugar salty salts and fat
Supplement is the operative word here
Can anyone recommend me a really good one?
Hemp powder is a complete protein
I drink green juice. Idk about those powders.
I get plenty of fiber from eating 5 dates a day. Incoming: arm sized poops. :p
People in the comments acting like your supposed to get high off of broccoli 😂. It will only make you feel better if your diet isn't good or you have a deficiency in one of the ingredients.. then once you get used to it, you won't feel it anymore.
Make sure you all understand these are just commercials. Sponsored content. Even if it looks like "news"
Great for a hangover after a drinking a bottle of Vodka. One shot and you can feel your hangover disapear👍🥂
Placebo is a powerful thing
that's perfect lol
@@rudyacosta4839 it’s not placebo ! The green powders work to some extent !
Thanks I Thought I Wanted AG After Seeing This “The Price Of $80/Month” I Can Make My Own Green Smoothie/Juice 🤪
They are getting rich off of people. You can buy a juicer, some greens and make daily drinks AND STILL SAVE MONEY.
This is a lie. Calculate the money you spend on real food that you juice and you'll spend more than the bottle of greens. Not to mention, do you have any gauge of how much you should be taking if you are juicing for yourself? Now I am not saying to put your trust in these companies but there are nuances to just thinking you can juice for yourself and get a balanced nutrition without overdoing it some respect.
It's good supplement but you need to add fiber to them
good point
Kaged... outlive 100 is way better no property blends...$49
FDA, LOL😂
Will help get Get rid of of herpes
Green snake oil.
Placebo effect
The long story short this video sponsored by AG1
P
If they could verify that these products work from a third party, I'd fork up the money. But until then, I'll stick to the real stuff.
Let's trust the old school MD and dying news. Good lord.
None of this processed crap can replace real veggies
not sure about that but fair point
Isn’t the fruits and veggies you buy at the store processed also?
Athletic greens gives you diarrhea!!!
High oxalates. Get kidney stone
Is a scam
