Fiber & greens

Greens Powder

A backup, never a substitute for vegetables.

Why it earns a place

Honest framing: greens powders are insurance for travel weeks and bad-eating stretches, not a replacement for the produce drawer. Pick one with a short ingredient list and no proprietary blends hiding the doses.

Frequent travellers and anyone in a stretch of low-vegetable weeks.

Who should skip it

You eat vegetables at most meals — save the money and buy more produce.

Dose

1 scoop daily.

$30–$70

Common questions

Can greens powder replace vegetables?

No. You lose the volume, the fiber and the fullness. Treat it as a gap-filler.
