How many servings of greens have you had this week? If you’re like most, the answer probably is: not enough. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends eating 2-3 cups of vegetables per day (including 1 cup of greens), but most Americans find it tough to meet that goal. The main reasons people do not eat enough greens are that they dislike the taste or aroma or don’t know how to cook/prepare them well.
Powdered greens like our Organic Greens Booster is a convenient and healthy way for people to increase their intake of nutrient-rich green vegetables.
Here are 4 benefits of incorporating Organic Greens Booster in your daily diet:
Convenient: While you should definitely be adding fruits and vegetables into your diet as much as possible, it can be a real struggle to calculate ways to squeeze in the healthy greens your body needs each and every day. Organic Greens Booster is the easiest way to get one cup of raw, organic, nutrient-rich green vegetables in just one scoop.
Nutrition packed: It contains dehydrated kale, spinach and broccoli in their purest form with all the fiber intact. It’s an excellent source of vitamin K and delivers the phytonutrients lutein and zeaxanthin, along with other vitamins and minerals. The best part: only 10 calories per serving.
Economical: Each serving costs less than $1.00 compared to one cup of organic kale, spinach and broccoli at $2.30†. Plus, no more wastage due to soggy, spoiled, wilted greens.
Versatile: Adding the Organic Greens Booster is not just limited to shakes. The possibilities are almost endless with its mild taste and aroma! You can add a scoop to your soup, stew, omelette, pancake batter. You can also add it sauces, salad dressings, dips to give it a nutritious punch. It’s also a clever way to “sneak” some greens into your kids’ favorite foods. Try this recipe today:
