DeutschGreens powder
Greens powders are dietary supplements made up of green and leaf vegetables, as well as other plant-based products.[1] They are generally mixed with water prior to consumption, or added to foods, including during cooking.[2]
Composition
[edit]Greens powders are made from various dehydrated powdered greens vegetables, fruits, algae, grasses, herbs and other plant-based ingredients.[3] Ingredient labels often list pre and probiotics, antioxidants and various vitamins.[4]
Health claims
[edit]Consumption has been cited as partially making up for insufficient vegetable consumption.[5][unreliable medical source?] Greens powders have been claimed to boost immunity and reduce chronic disease risk, but research continues into the supplement's long-term effects.[6] They generally come without recommendations from dietary experts.[7]
