Lately, I have come across various reviews that say positive things concerning green powders, AG1 included. But are these purported health benefits scientifically true?

Even with positive feedback and assertations, science backed reviewers and nutritionists not affiliated with firmings are doubtful of the effectiveness of green powders such as AG1. Most of them have not passed the scrutiny of the FDA; and there are frequent disputes among experts as to their health benefits. There is a clear agreement among unbiased professionals that the gains are lamentably minimal, or are, as at now, unsupported by evidence.

Being deeply entrenched in nutrition research, both for sport and general health, along with exercise science research, and having been in the fitness industry for nearly a decade, any product that claims to be a panacea of benefits is going to have a kernel of truth blown way out of proportion. People always want a convenient fix to their issues, like nutrition in this case, rather than actually make true dietary changes, such as eating more plants (ya know, those actually green whole foods). Marketing is powerful but honesty and science can prevail. Solid content as always Josh!

FINALLY, someone checks this BS out. It was EVERYWHERE some months ago. It's gone a bit quiet now.

So we have yet another case where "If it sounds too good to be true, if probably is"

i just lost all respect for Huberman, stanford educated but too stupid or acting stupid to not know that AG1 is a scam.

I respected Dr. Rhonda so much for speaking the truth about AG1.

I love when my intuition is confirmed years later by actual science and research

One of my cousins uses AG1, he gave me 4 packs and I must say personally I noticed an increase in energy, however I have always been of the opinion that I would prefer to spend the money on real vegetables and make a green smoothie with veges and water than to buy a green power with some questionable ingedients. But to each their own.
