Organifi Green Juice – Powder Supplement with Organic Spirulina, Ashwagandha, and Chlorella – Helps Achieve Fitness Goals and Reduce Cortisol Levels, 30-Day Supply

Read The Bad Review and Buy This Anyways
I saw an advertisement on the net for this and rushed straight to Amazon to see it they carried it and read the reviews. I was intrigued by reviews complaining the can (glass) was half full. Huh?! I have never opened powdered anything and observed it full to the top. In fact, I prefer NOT to have it full to the top because the stuff will get everywhere! But I pressed on reading review after review on this stuff. The number two complaint was the price. The last time I checked, organic anything and especially organic herbs always cost more. I don’t know where everyone shops but I’m pretty sure if it says organic your going to pay more. Undaunted, I kept reading. There appeared to be some who were rooted in reality that I could compute. They weren’t suprised the product settled during shipping and handling. One reviewer said to shake it up and see for yourself that it is not half full. Others, such as my simple self, pay attention to the prices they pay for regular vs organic products offered in the market and were not outraged at the price nor demand the capitalist who produced this, to lower the price. That being said, due to superficial negative reviews, I decided to give it a shot. For transparency reasons, I’m slightly overweight junk food junkie who decided Dec. 28th to eat healthy for the first time in 49 years. I don’t do smoothies that flatten my grocery budget. But for the sake of loosing some ugly weight and see what fruit and veggies taste like, I soldiered on. I ordered this about two days into the change. It arrived about day 8 of my healthy eating (I live in Alaska, so this is good time on shipping). I was burned out on my watery protein shake, but I refuse to blend all these vegetables and fruit in the am. I would get to work around lunch time!! When it arrived, I eagerly opened it in my office (just had to see how bad I had been ripped off). As I expected, it had settled during shipping. I gave the can a good shake and looked in it again. Word to the wise: Don’t. It’s very fine, sifted onto my jeans a bit, and got on my fingers. To Organifi, do me a favor AND don’t fill it to the top, because I won’t buy it, simply because of the mess. I already discussed the financial end. Now let’s talk about a slightly overweight 49 year old woman who has not been experiencing much energy and up until December 28th was a beer drinking pizza lover bread eating tired thing. The next morning I eagerly got up. Put the water in my blender, the recommended amount of protein powder, a bit of coconut oil and a scoop of this green stuff. Gave the blender a few whirs, poured it in my cup. It’s green alright. But it tastes fine. I wouldn’t go to the juice bar and pay for some fancy smoothie with a scoop of this stuff. But it wasn’t bad (remember, I lived on beer and bad carbs for 49 years). I can drink this everyday. And it does have some fine grittiness to it. But dear god almighty! I got to work and I was on! Had tons of energy and in a great mood despite a very cranky boss. If I keep experiencing these benefits, I can guarantee you this will stay in my diet for a long long time.

Updated – Expensive
Note: the lead warning has the word ‘may’ in it because different ingredients are grown in different places and I’m sure farmers don’t provide a soil analysis to clients. They don’t PUT lead in the Organify product. But some farmer somewhere may use a fertilizer or pesticides that include trace amounts of lead. CA requires disclosure of that possibility. You probably consume the same amount in locally grown food. Update- So I have been faithfully drinking my green juice every day for a few weeks to give it a fair shot. I have to say that I almost look forward to it now. I am getting used to the taste and feel good that I’m feeding my body something good. Still using 1/2 scoop to make it last a little longer because it is expensive. That said, I don’t mind drinking it now (mixed with unsweetened iced tea and lemon juice) and will definitely finish the bag. I will consider repurchasing and have upped my star rating from a 3 to a 4. If the price was closer to $30 I would rate this 4.5-5 stars. For me the price is the main negative.Full disclaimer – I’m new to green juice so the jury is still out. Not sure what I expected. It’s minty grass water. It’s gritty and very expensive. I’m starting with 1/2 scoop and I mellow the flavor by mixing it in unsweetened iced tea and adding some extra lemon juice. Still minty grass water. I am trying to drink it daily, but honestly, if I don’t feel a major change in energy and stress by the time I reach the end of the bag I will likely not repurchase.
