Greens powder
Greens powders are formulated dry particles of fruit, and green and leaf vegetables intended to serve as a dietary supplement.[1] They generally mixed with water prior to consumption, or added to foods, including during cooking.
Composition
Greens powders are supplements made from greens, vegetables, seaweed, probiotics, and digestive enzymes.
Health claims
Consumption has been cited as partially making up for insufficient vegetable consumption.[2] Greens powders have been claimed to boost immunity and reduce chronic disease risk, but research continues into the supplement's long-term effects. They generally come without recommendations from dietary experts.[3]
