Panda_Day 1 Posted March 18, 2007 I last week I bought a container of supplements from Trader Joe's, "VERY GREEN - a unique combination of concentrate greens" They were fairly expensive (about $12) and I am trying to figure out if they are useful to acne/overall health or just another supplemnt gimmick. Proprietary Green Mix Blend 1,222 mg Alfalfa Leaf Juice, Pure Soy Lecithin Barley Grass Juice Apple Pectin Hawaiian Spirulina Algae Chlorella Algae Royal Jelly Extract 3:1 Wheat Grass Juice Bee Pollen Carrot Root Juice Tomato Fruit Juice Acidophilus (in a base of fructooligosaccharide) Beet Root Extract Kelp Extract Milk Thistle Fruit Extract Bilberry Extract Green tea Leaf Extract Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract Grape Seed Extract * everything is powdered Other ingredients: Gelatin Capsule, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Magnesium Stearate (vegetable source), Silica.

Shake Off the Dust Arise 0 Posted March 18, 2007 Its probably very good for you, but if the cause of your skin problems is something else you are eating, it wont cover it up. You have to find the foods your body does not tolerate. I could eat Veggies all day, but if I just drink a little milk or eat a snicker bar, All hell breaks loose... lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NdnRomeo 12 Posted March 18, 2007 It will probably just help with replacing or supplementing your veggies. And for the effects... it will do what veggies usually do, help the functioning of your body by providing it nutrients to stay healthy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dejaclairevoyant 757 Posted March 18, 2007 I love raw greens supplements. Since they are raw they have all the enzymes and good stuff in them. These types of green drinks are great, I drink them all the time. I dont think 12 bucks is expensive at all, I paid 40 bucks for a greens supplement once. 12 bucks is good.
