1. Amazing Grass Green Food Blend 5.7g
This blend is composed of a variety of organic grasses, vegetables, and fruits.
The grasses include wheat grass, barley grass, and alfalfa grass, which are commonly known for their dense nutrient content, particularly chlorophyll, vitamins, and minerals.
The vegetables such as spinach, spirulina, chlorella, and broccoli are equally nutrient-rich and provide a broad spectrum of vitamins, antioxidants, and phytonutrients.
The total weight of this blend in most variations is around 5.7g, which is a decent amount for a total of 7 ingredients. And we do like the choices, because they’re pretty nutritious superfoods with a vast variety of benefits.
Ingredients: Organic Wheat Grass, Organic Barley Grass, Organic Alfalfa Grass, Organic Spinach, Organic Spirulina, Organic Chlorella (cracked cell-wall), Organic Broccoli.
2. Amazing Grass Antioxidant Blend (1.1g)
This blend is composed of a variety of organic fruits and botanical extracts known for their high antioxidant content.
The fruits included are a selection of berries and pomegranate, recognised for their high levels of naturally occurring vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols, compounds that have antioxidant properties.
The blend also includes green tea extract and apple peel, which are additional sources of antioxidants such as catechins and quercetin, respectively.
The total weight of this blend is 1.1g, which is on the slightly lower side for 12 ingredients, but likely still enough to get the benefits of antioxidants.
Ingredients: Organic Apple Peel, Organic Blueberry, Organic Cranberry, Organic Pomegranate, Organic Raspberry, Organic Strawberry, Organic Cherry, Organic Blackberry, Organic Green Tea Leaf Extract, Organic Rice Bran, Organic Beet Root.
3. EFA Fiber Blend (668mg)
The Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) Fiber Blend likely aims to provide a source of dietary fiber, which is important for digestive health, as well as essential fats that are vital for maintaining cell structure and function.
The inclusion of flaxseed and apple pectin provides both soluble and insoluble fibers, along with omega-3 fatty acids from the flax. With a weight of 668mg (for both ingredients together), the ingredients likely are normally dosed.
However, given that the suggested amount of fibre is 30g per day, a 668mg blend isn’t going to provide a significant contribution to your fiber goals. This is something we thought is worth mentioning, but it’s also important to note that ingredients of other blends inside of Amazing Greens Grass contain Fiber, bringing the total fiber per serving to 3g (much better!).
Ingredients: Organic Flax Seed, Apple Pectin.
4. Digestive Enzyme & Active Culture Pre/Probiotic Blend (426mg)
This blend contains enzymes and probiotics which are intended to support the digestive system. Enzymes such as amylase, protease, lipase, lactase, and cellulase help in breaking down various components of food, making nutrients more available for absorption. The probiotics (beneficial bacteria) included, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus, can promote a healthy gut microbiota.
Ingredients: F.O.S. (Fructooligosaccharide from Chicory Root), L. Acidophilus, Protease (Aspergillus oryzae), Amylase (Aspergillus oryzae), Lipase (Aspergillus niger), Lactase (Aspergillus oryzae), Cellulase (Trichoderma reesei).
