![]() It is dull and repetitive and poorly edited, if it was edited at all. This book, however, incites no such laughter. Really, it really did make me laugh aloud! But I did stop laughing when I trashed it at the next highway rest stop. On my drive home, I began listening to the CD, and could not stop laughing at its claptrap inanity. The Henri Rousseau ripoff cover is as alluring here no less than in its big fat precursor volume published around 1979 "The Eating Gorilla Comes in Peace." I bought "Green Gorilla" at a health expo at a booth staffed by Adi Da Blah Blah's devotees, and because it was at list price they added a gratis CD of His Royal Highness's talks. As the old adage goes, You Can't Judge a Book by Its Cover. Needs to be dosed at 1000mg to have any benefits. Means that we have 650mg total for the rest of the ingredients. Water would be higher based on product listing order (let’s assume 700mg). ![]() We know that they dose Ashwagandha at 600mg and this means that the coconut Have the superfood blend containing Organic Coconut Water Powder, OrganicĪshwagandha, Organic Red Beet (root) and Organic Turmeric. This is not the good start that it promised to be. Unusual, AG1, Super Green Tonik and most of the other big names manage to comeĬlose to hitting all of your needs with the exclusion of a couple of vitamins Organifi doesn’t even come close to meeting your micronutrient needs. Look at the limited Organifi label, unlike a lot of other Greens powders Juice for example has been shown to contain a decent amount of potassium, iron Most of the nutrition is passed on through powdered form, and this is all ![]() Here and it’s pretty par for the course, as you’d expect you get most of theīenefits you get from adding healthy greens to your diet. That’s quite a lot and most of theseĪre pretty standard in greens powders, there’s not really anything special in Green tea (Camellia sinesis, whole leaf). Plant), Organic Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris, whole plant), Organic Matcha (Moringa oleifera leaf), Organic Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis, whole Greens Blend contains Organic Wheat Grass Juice Powder, Organic Moringa Juice etc to suggest this is all pretty reasonable. There’s enough evidence on greens like wheatgrass, lemon It’s not unreasonable, greens powders do help your digestion and containĪntioxidants etc. There’s not really a lot toĭetox, it really depends what they mean, it’s a relatively washy statement, but Help with this, beyond possibly filling you up. Weight management, there isn’t really a lot here to suggest that Organifi would If this is correct then it can be effective. They do claim to haveĦ00mg as a dosage on the site, but it is not on the actual nutritional label. There have been double blind studies to back this up. Which they likely do, then it’s not an unreasonable claim by Green Juice as That their product will reduce stress and cortisol levels (with the aforementionedĪshwagandha being largely behind this claim), help with weight management (we’llĬome back to that one) and that it will help detox the body.įirst claim, if we assume that they’ve got the correct dose of Ashwagandha, In short, it’s OK, but there are better tasting, better value and better dosed options available. Now, all of this doesn’t mean that Organifi Green Juice doesn’t have any effectively dosed ingredients, it also doesn’t mean it’s a particularly bad greens powder by the standards of the industry. It’s also a certainty that some of the ingredients can’t be fully dosed based on the total volume and that all ingredients being fully dosed would simply require more milligrams than exist in a serving of Green Juice. ![]() The logic being quite simply that people will buy the product because the ingredients are listed, and then they fill it with more of the cheap and ineffective ingredients. It’s all well and good for Green Juice to say it includes ingredients good for stress (see ashwagandha) or inflammation (see turmeric), but if it’s not included in a large enough dosage to be effective, then they don’t really serve much purpose.Īnd whilst many consumers would think that Organifi Green Juice wouldn’t include ingredients without putting an effective amount in their greens powder, it’s unfortunately very common practice in the nutrition industry, to the point where we would say it’s more common than not. It’s just not good enough to top our best greens powders list, it falls into what seems to be a pretty common trap for greens powders, and that’s simply, not giving us the full nutritional details. ![]()
