Is "greens" supplement worth it ?

[wariorpolni]

Hello, i have a question. I eat like 2 bowls of vegetables daily (mix of carrot,cucumbar,salat, etc.) and 2-3 pieces of fruit. I found out "greens" supplement, you know supplements with extracts of vegetables etc. Its pretty expensive, but it looks like one of the supplements thats really worth it, i mean there is a lot of things in there, but still its a "powder". So my question is -> is greens supplement worth it ? Does it have benefits on health/fitness, or i dont need it if i have amount of vegetables/fruits that i listed here ? Thanks

Chlorella + Spirulina are powerful "greens" supplements that are insanely potent with helping maximize the way your system functions

Based on what? Sellers claims? (Peer-reviewed scientific studies? Where?)

I actually drink a little greens powder drink a couple times a week, but it's mainly cuz it makes my stomach feel good and the taste is actually kind of nice.

real food > supplements but if you cant get enough of real food or you want to add some extra greens in your life i say go for it

A lot of the good stuff from vegetables are the phytonutrients. I question how intact they are after the manufacturing process of turning them into a powder. For the price of them, you can buy a lot of vegetables.

Know that cucumber ain't doing much for you nutritionally. If your salad base is spinach, kale, arugula/spring mix or cabbage you are well on your way IMO. Not so much with romaine and iceberg lettuce.
