Garden Of Life Whole Food Vegetable Supplement – Perfect Food Green Superfood Dietary Powder, 600g

QUALITY, TASTE, AND SMELL
Okay, so you have to choose what you find most important… your health or the smell and taste of the product. 10 out of 10 makes me feel great. 10 out of 10 mixes well. 10 out of 10 on quality. As for the smell….. it’s just awful… I mean so awful if you put it in a bottle and shake it up then go to take a sip it’ll make your face box up! It’s dreadful but here again it’s a 10 for the health benefits!

Good for my allergies AND revenge fantasies!
This is my first Amazon review, despite being in their thrall for years and years now. I felt compelled to share my experience with this product in hopes that it might help others.I have been using this stuff for over two weeks now. I initially heard about a different product, Miracle Greens, on one of my favorite podcasts. The digestive benefits the host was talking about piqued my interest. After searching on Amazon for Miracle Greens and similar products, I chose this one from Garden of Life based on ingredients. So, two weeks in, what have I learned?First, the taste review: worse than the worst thing I have ever tasted; better than death.I would still wish it on my worst enemy, but it’s pretty bad, ya’ll. If tooth decay has a taste, I imagine it would be like this. The first time, I didn’t think I could finish it. I went into an immediate shame spiral over my silly purchase of something I’ll never use, a waste time and money, destined to gather dust on the shelf next to my papaya tablets, soy protein mix, and “Quantum Wellness” book. Not to mention the embarrassment when my husband asks me “How’s that new green powder supplement going?”. Then I remembered I’m 31 years old. I remembered the comments here, and how I was forewarned of the taste, and I decided I just needed to put my big girl undies on, pull ’em up nice and tight, and drink this little harmless, (fetid), good for me, (foul) glass of green. And I did. Over the next three days, I tried different juices suggested here. None helped me, in fact only made it worse tasting, but I persevered. The hubz suggested on the fourth day that I hold my nose while drinking. (He went on to suggest other disgusting things it would be possible to eat/drink with one’s nose plugged, things of which I will spare you.) So I mixed a scoop with about 6 oz of water, held my nose, and killed it. And it really was tolerable. The amazing thing is, after several days of drinking it that way, my taste buds acclimated to the horror. Now I can drink it freely, without plugging my nose. And it’s really not bad at all anymore. I’d rather drink this than, say, a packet of Thermaflu.Another suggestion: put a scoop in a glass jar with a lid, add water and shake (rather than trying to stir it). It dissolves easily this way, but doesn’t froth up if you use water.So far, I haven’t noticed any change in my digestive *ahem* progress. I’m hoping that will come soon. However, I suffer horribly from indoor/outdoor allergies, and since taking this, I haven’t had to take a single allergy pill. For the first time in 2 years. So that’s pretty phenomenal, and has made a huge difference in quality of life for me. Overall, I feel measurably better; my mood is brighter, I have more energy, and have noticed improved skin tone. I’ve also been craving more water, but I’m not sure if that’s a bi-product of ingesting this, or if it’s a subliminal you-spent-40-plus-dollars-on-this-so-you-better-not-muck-it-up-with-diet-coke message fueling my thirst. Either way, more water=good.I give this product full stars. I still think I might try to Miracle Greens or Macro Greens, whatever they are. If any of you have tried both, and would indulge me by making comparisons in the comments, I’d like that a lot.Good luck!

Amazing stuff!
I’ve been struggling with arthritis pain, sore joints and low energy for a long time. After changing my diet completely, I was still dealing with these and other health issues to varying degrees. A reputable natural healer advised me to incorporate a quality green supplement to my organic, vegan based diet. It was when I added “Perfect Food” to my already stuffed Blentec that in two weeks I noticed a change, perhaps the change that was to elevate my health to another level, where I began to feel a noticeable tapering of my arthritis symptoms as well as my sore joints and muscles. It’s been a long journey, probably too long to discuss here, but i’m relieved to feel better to the point that I cannot remember when I last felt this good.Perfect Food combines many great ingredients including a quality probiotic, green grasses and vegetables too numerous to list and many are organic. It is great for those who have no time to hunt down leafy greens to eat or grind up. I should know because I spend a lot of time going to stores who are indifferent to organic produce and if they carry any, it is already expired and wilted. So I recommend mixing this product in water or even in your protein drinks for the daily helping of green. We need green to fortify our poor American diets since few of us are not fortunate enough to live on or near a farm.Recently after petting one of my dogs (another “little” Rottweiler), I discovered two cysts on opposing shoulders that were 3.5 cm’s in diam. She had a dry, wiry coat and was shedding excessively which surprised me because she is on a natural/raw diet. I decided to give her and my other dogs some of my green drink since I felt they were not getting enough green and this was easy to do for me. Within two weeks, my little Rotty’s cysts had each shrunk to the size of a pea. Her coat was shiny and she ceased to shed. My other dogs’ coats also improved and two of them no longer had ear issues.This is a proven product that has been on the market for a while and it works. In my case, I had to also change my diet, eliminating many fats and “dead” foods. Amazon has made this so affordable with their auto delivery program and I am grateful. We go through one 600 gm. container per month as well as one “Primal Defense” (see my review) 180 cap bottle. Both are free shipping. I’ve seen Perfect Food as high as $72. Vitacost has it for $42. Amazon beats them all (600 gram container) for $34 total! Thanks Amazon!
