The Best Greens Powders

WIRED

05-02-2025

I tried the Wild Strawberry Kiwi flavor of Groove, which tasted fantastic—fresh, sweet, bright—and the Ginger Peach flavor, which was a little spicy, a little sweet, and reminded me of a wellness juice shot. Both were delicious. One thing I will say is that the scoop design has a little groove on the back that collects powder and makes things a bit messy, so I recommend storing the scoop outside of the powder bag. It also took a little bit longer to dissolve than some other brands I tried. But it tastes like a mocktail or a bottled juice, not like a supplement. Each serving contains 20 calories, 5 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of fiber, your daily values of vitamins C and D, a ton of Vitamin B12, plus 8 percent of your daily iron. There are superfoods, vitamins, minerals, fiber (not much, but it's there), antioxidants, probiotics, and digestive enzymes. The brand touts Alpha GPC (a form of choline), freeze-dried coconut water, and of course the ever-buzzy superfoods like various grasses and spirulina. I noticed higher energy levels than with other greens powders I tried, less bloating, and happier digestion. Let it be known that these greens don't taste like fruits or veggies at all, really. If you want your greens to taste more green, another brand might be a better option. But for me, this hit the spot.
This greens powder is very subtle. It's almost unflavored, both the plain version and the Wild Berry version. The instructions aren't super clear—the packaging says to add a scoop to juice, water, or milk. I mixed mine with 10 ounces of water and it was fine. It didn't taste great and it didn't taste bad. It's vaguely earthy, a little sweet, but mostly neutral. Because of that, I think this is the best candidate for mixing into other drinks. You'll get a kick of 'healthy' flavor without risking overpowering whatever it is you're drinking.
Each serving contains 25 calories, 5 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of protein, 3 grams of dietary fiber, a bunch of vitamins (including K, A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, and B5), folate, calcium, iron, magnesium, iodine … the list goes on. The brand lists each ingredient and the reasons for inclusion on the website, a deep dive that I appreciate (though again, these are not regulated by the FDA). You'll get probiotics. You'll get enzymes. You'll get the superest of superfoods. I noticed higher energy levels and a healthier-feeling gut. If you already have a morning smoothie routine going, or you want something that tastes healthy without tasting like straight-up grass, I think adding in this powder makes sense.
