Yes, it's very good, doesn't taste awful, works good in vanilla protein. It's not nearly as tasty as Oximega, though, not even close.

This.

I tried it once and returned it to get some Steel Cut Oatmeal.

Not a fan of Greens Supplements to begin with but OxiMega is the best so far

Thanks guys...but disregard taste please...I'm just curious in regards to the formula and bang for buck.

Also, why do both formulas include red beet root. According to the product description, red beet root "has been suggested to increase endurance and support nitric oxide levels in exercising humans." Isn't increasing N.O. a bad thing since it increases free radicals? Would seem contradictory to include it....

[Bruinfan280]

anyone else tried this stuff?

No. Nitrates are pretty good for you, and they support heart health, as well as endurance. It's freaking beets, dude, they're GREAT for you.

Don't worry, man, just buy it, if you want it. It has an ORAC rating of over 8000 per serving, it has large amounts of greens, it'll fulfill your green powder needs.

ORAC Oxygen Radical Absurbance capacity(orac).. 8000 is good. I use to buy Gnc SuperFood supreme and it did work wonders for me. However its 50 bucks... I will be checking out trader joes this weekend

what kind of results/benefits did you notice from the GNC superfood supreme?

[eldawg]

Never tried it, but the profile looks decent.

The antioxidants also help with this.

looks like a good product, why not try it and orange oximega to compare?

yup, orange oximega is great for profile and taste. the nitrate donor complex is good for overall health.

I find with all Greens Products (OxiMega included, which is what I take), you're better off using the smallest amount of water you can get away with and shooting it back in one gulp. Even though the CL product is somewhat pleasing spearmint, it still gets old if you fill a glass and sip on it for a while.

[Bruinfan280]

Sounds like it's a decent product from the responses....although they also have a red powder mix for the same price...

No better alternative from bb.com for a similar or better price?

orange oximega greens is 22.50 after the 10% off code and is 60 servings

[Bruinfan280]

The ingredient profile looks good...I'm just wondering if perhaps they are underdosed...

I have both in my fridge. Oximega is better, hands-down.

I crave Oximega, sometimes I mix a scoop in 12oz of cold water and sip it. Seriously. And my 4yo daughter begs for it in fruit juice with breakfast, daily.

No, it's not. it's just not as tasty as Oximega, and it has fewer servings.

thanks for the vote of confidence

with how good and effective this is, we really should get sample packets made

[alcakes]

everyone is praising OxiMega
Im in california... and the label shows up with a CANCER WARNING ON IT!

but if you check on the site, there is no warning.. because they dont have to
only if you live in California

why the hell is a GREENS drink (oximega) have ANY remote possibility of causing cancer??
something is not right!
