What is a greens powder?

A Greens Powder is a dietary supplement made from dried and ground vegetables, fruits, herbs, and sometimes other ingredients like probiotics or digestive enzymes. It’s typically sold as a fine powder that can be mixed with water, juice, smoothies, or other beverages. Greens Powders are designed to provide a concentrated source of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients in each dose. It’s often used as a convenient way to increase daily intake of nutrients especially for individuals who may have difficulty consuming enough whole foods.
