I, too, put this in a smoothie in the morning for both myself and my teenage daughter who I know doesn’t always eat well. I blend in a blender two scoops of Greens Plus Multi (mixed fruit flavour) with a banana, frozen strawberries, plain yogurt, and almond milk and my fussy daughter loves it. This way I know both of us are getting all the vitamins and nutrients that we need for the day and it has also helped her with her bowel problems. I highly recommend this product and love the taste as mixed above!!!

Claire (April 14th), Your quinoa, millet, steel oats “smoothie” plus the Greens + was a hit for me. I am training for an October marathon, here, in Toronto. Your recommendation is great, thanks so much. True, the texture is kinda “gritty” but the oats, millet and quinoa will keep you going for a while! The taste isn’t so bad with the Berries Greens +. It is well worth the health benefits. Much appreciated! Kathleen the running machine

I wouldn’t dream of having my Greens + mixed with anything but Juice or in a smoothie! I don’t love the taste alone in water; can’t do it. I do love it in OJ and I shake, shake, shake it….I shake it before every sip :-) I think all the Greens products are fantastic.

I’ve been using this on the advice of my personal trainer — just started with her and she’s changed up my diet in addition to getting me to pump iron and build muscle. The winning combination for me is putting it in my breakfast shakes via blender:

6 ice cubes
1c of water
1 banana
1/2c berries (I’m using strawberries/blueberries, frozen, unsweetened)
1/2oz steel cut oats
1/2oz organic quinoa
1/2oz millets
2 scoops of Greens+ Mixed Berry powder

SUPER start to the day, but a caution to the less adventurous: Don’t use the oats/quinoa/millets unless you’re okay with a very… unusual texture to your smoothie. I put them in raw. Additionally, the smoothie looks delicious right up until you add the powder — then it looks like wet cemenet. Don’t let that deter you, bottoms up! Personally, I love this recipe, but I can understand that it might not be for everyone! =D

I have to count myself with those that can’t stand the taste of any of the mixes, regardless of flavor, so I take the capsules. They are a bit on the pricey side, so I don’t take them everyday. Rather I use a half dose (6 capsules) when I know my day ahead will be less agreeable to eating properly. I have an on the go job (photographer) so along with a good breakfast I take a few of these with my fruit and sandwich for lunch. Works great and I notice their impact on my energy levels when I haven’t taken them for a while

Just sampled plain, berry and creamsicle at a sampling table. I’ve never liked greens. I liked all the samples. The plain and berry were made with organic apple juice. Not bad at all. The creamsicle with vanilla soy milk. Very good. I use 3/4 soy milk, 1/4 water. The first greens I’ve liked. I feel good also and it seems to curb my appetite. Also feel good about the ingredients.

Hi Scott

Thank you for sharing your experience with Greens Plus. It is great to hear that you have found a way to enjoy it and notice health benefits as well.

Ever since I have started drinking green smoothies, I would probably enjoy these more today, but nowadays I feel no need for them with my diet. However, I definitely think they are a quality product with many benefits for people, depending on what one’s needs are.

Thanks again for your input!
