 Greens & Superfoods: Gut Health + Immune Support

I tried this superfood greens strawberry lemonade as part of an educational promotion. I like the idea of this drink but honestly it's just not for me. The flavor is great (i definitely need more water than it says because it's pretty strong) but it needs to dissociation for me. Its not something I would try again.

First I should mention that I've never tried a greens type drink before. So this is my first experience with them. I received the pink lemonade to try for my honestFirst, I should mention that I've never tried a greens-type drink before. So this is my first experience with them. I received the pink lemonade to try for my honest opinion and feedback. I'll be honest, the taste horrified me. I was expecting a clear drink, more like lemonade, but this is thick and chalky. It's green and sour. Worst of all, it uses artificial sweetener, which I abhor (they don't use a ton, though, making that more bearable). From my first drink, it was getting 1 Star. However, I'm painting my house this past few weeks. The whole house. It's a lot. I'm doing it by myself. I often forget to eat, or if I do, it's what I can grab because my kitchen is out of order. I was feeling really worn out and thought I'd pinch my nose and get one of these drinks down. I did, and all of my energy (plus a little more) came back. I continued to drink them, and immediately afterwards, I started to feel better. Overtime, the taste has been less shocking, and while I won't say I like them, I'm tolerating them. They have helped me so much that they have jumped from one star to four stars. For those thinking about trying these, I'll share a word of wisdom… don't order them thinking you're getting a pretty pink lemonade that will give you the vitamins of all of the veggies you've missed. This is the greens in a powder form. You could use them in a smoothie, but I can't think of a proper smoothie for pink lemonade. Anyways, none of that matters when you count the nutritional purpose. It's like that old song says, "you can't always get what you want. You get what you need" lol. Best of luck on your health journey!

I've never tried a green juice, but I know I need more greens in my diet. I was given this free in exchange for my honest review, and was told by someone that this was the best greens supplement they've tried. I can't imagine trying any other. It dissolves well in chilled water, but it is slightly chalky. I add more water than suggested to get rid of the chalkiness and the slight zero-sugar sweetener aftertaste, however the aftertaste isn't too bad. I had a little lemonade at home and added a splash, along with a splash of lime juice and it tasted just like lemonade, no aftertaste, and I couldn't put it down. I've found that this keeps me satiated for a while, and actually provides a natural boost of energy! I just feel good all around after I drink it. I'm already regular, but I've noticed this does speed things up a bit, not in a bad way at all. I look forward to drinking this knowing I'm doing my body some good.

As a new mom, nourishing my body so I can be at my best is a high priority, and Rookie Wellness Greens and Superfood has become a staple in my daily diet. To be honest, I struggled to take greens before because they never tasted good, but this one is actually not bad! Although I wish the strawberry lemonade flavor was a bit stronger, it's much tastier than other brands I've tried. I also love that it comes in individual packets; since I'm usually on the go, I can easily take them with me when I'm out.

I have tried many green super food supplements however, this right here is a winner. I am on a weight loss journey, so my gut health is very important and this does the trick. The immune support is an added bonus and just as important. The taste is incredible; I was really surprised. I have the strawberry lemonade, and it tastes just like strawberry lemonade! I drink it in the morning, and I honestly feel a little pep in my step. I also love that it actually lists all the ingredients and how much. Great if you cannot get all of your daily greens.
