This review is for Vibrant Health's Green Vibrance Superfood Powder =================================================================== WHY ONLY 4 STARS I found no contact info on the product page. Nor did I find contact info on the Vibrant Health Store homepage on Amazon. So I made the effort to visit their website and search for a contact address (which certainly wasn't front and center). When I found the address I sent them a very short and succinct question. They never bothered to respond. Guess it was too much trouble. --------------------- FIRST TAKE I'm a suburbs guy but I have used bales of hay to mulch my gardens. When first opened, the strong odor wafting from the canister smelled exactly like a just-opened moist bale of hay. I love that smell as it reminds me of nature, Mother Earth and the essence of life. And that's one of the reasons why I like to garden. But the odor of moist hay doesn't smell appetizing, make me salivate or look forward to swallowing grass. So the first hurdle was getting past the fact that Green Vibrance does not smell like something I'd want to consume. The next hurdle was getting past the taste, which was very similar to the odor. Meaning, it tasted like puree a la hay bale. Not a terrible taste at all in my opinion but I gulped it down, as my brain and taste buds did not register hay as a food item. I'll leave the last sentence as my evaluation of the odor and taste. Other reviewers absolutely hate the taste, as you can read in their reviews. Note: On their website, the company also offers a Blueberry-Lemon flavored version of this product. It costs a few dollars more but may be worthwhile for some people. Some people complain that Green Vibrance is gritty. I do notice a bit of grittiness in the product but for me it's not bad at all. TWO WEEKS ON After about two weeks I grew used to the odor and the taste. I don't look forward to it, nor do I try to avoid it. It's akin to taking a vitamin. However, I do still gulp the mixture down as my brain has yet to register it as a food item. RESULTS I've been using this product for six weeks and haven't noticed any positive or negative impact, but didn't expect to. I know for a fact I don't eat enough vegetables and that's why I wanted to start using Green Vibrance. My expectations are there will be long-term health benefits, and those will be very difficult to measure. Other reviewers have noticed increased levels of energy and better well-being. If you choose to use this product, only you can make a determination as to whether it's worthwhile or not. PREPARATION Green Vibrance is a very dry powder and I quickly discovered that it's easier to mix when the powder is added to the glass of water. When water is poured on top of the very dry and hydrophobic powder, some of the powder stubbornly sticks in small clumps to the sides and bottom of the glass. To mix the powder into the water, I found that a small rubber whisk from the Dollar Store works better than any other utensils in my kitchen drawers. I suspect better tools would include a small handheld immersion blender or even one of the small single serving blenders (Magic Bullet, etc.) which would also allow for blending in some banana, blueberries etc., if desired. BOTTOM LINE I'm taking Green Vibrance to help make up for my inadequate vegetable intake, and also for the long list of healthy ingredients/supplements. IOW I'm using it as a much-more fortified version of a vitamin pill because I don't think my diet is adequate. I'm now used to the flavor and smell and it's part of my morning routine. It's a form of health insurance that's hard to evaluate, and I don't expect to notice any immediate improvements. If you don't believe vitamin supplements are helpful, this is product is probably not for you. But if your diet isn't the best and/or you get bad colds in the Winter and catch most every flu that comes around - this product may be worth trying.

I decided to take a risk and order this product. All I can say is I wish I knew about it sooner. I definitely have more energy and my sleep is so much better!!

Finally a product without added sweeteners! It is earthly but does have a bit of natural sweetness--just right for a person who doesn't like the taste of sweeteners.

This is truly hands down the best quality product. Not only has my bloating decreased but my skin is glowing and I have received many compliments. I am not a person who cares if it tastes good as I know what I am drinking and prefer to not have any additional sugar. I mix apple cider vinegar w/mother, lemon juice and about 3-4oz of water. The list of ingredients could not be better. Note: I also add verisol collagen (better easily absorbed in the body for hair/skin/nails)- Sparkle is the brand. Worth every penny. Also, i have found that I have a hard time digesting vegetables so I have needed to cut back on the raw vegetables and this provides the nutrition that I have needed to replace.

So much energy and focus! I stayed awake all day and didn’t break focus 🧘
