Perfect Food
Product Overview
One way to make sure you are receiving the nutritional benefits of multiple servings of fruits and vegetables is through green food supplementation. Perfect Food Super Green Formula has more greens per serving than other leading green food formulas. Other formulas often load their products with non-greens and fillers. While many of these non-greens are important and have a definite nutritional benefit, no other type of food source provides the nutritional benefit of green foods. That is why Perfect Food Super Green Formula Powder contains over 8000mg of greens per serving.

What are super green foods and why do I need them?
Super green foods is a term usually used to describe young cereal grasses such as wheat, barley, oats and alfalfa, as well as spirulina, chlorella, kelp and other sea vegetables. A diet comprised of super green foods enables grass-eating animals to continually maintain their weight, strength, and vibrant health.
If I'm already taking a vitamin supplement, why do I need Perfect Food?
The whole foods found in Perfect Food provide vitamins and minerals as nature intended, but it goes beyond just that. Perfect Food also delivers naturally occurring cofactors and synergistic compounds by utilizing concentrates and juices instead of extracts and isolates.
Whole foods and their concentrates are ingredients on which no chemical extraction has been performed. When nutrients are stripped of their cofactors as a result of extraction, it may alter the nutrients' utilization. In addition, these cofactors might have additional antioxidant benefits. In contrast, most widely available vitamin and mineral supplements are made from fractionated, isolated or synthetic sources that can potentially create an environment of biochemical imbalances.
For optimal health, there's nothing better than nutrient-rich, unprocessed whole foods in their balanced, natural state, like those found in Perfect Food.
Ratings & Reviews
Have used several super green products and once I found Garden of Life I have stayed with it. The taste is quickly adjusted to, and the ingredient list of the good things you're after cannot be beat.
Yeah, we know. Tastes like hell. They all do if they're any good. Having been a semi-pro goalkeeper I've literally eaten a lot of grass. Yup pretty much the same taste. Here's the trick, about 6 oz. of orange juice. I like Tropicana 50 since it's half the sugar and only 50 calories. You want enough OJ to thin in out, but no more than you can swallow in one swig. Since your taste buds can only process something after you've swallowed you only have to endure the nastiness once and the tartness of the OJ cuts that pretty well.
Great product, I would have given it a 10 but it does not taste great. I do at it to my protein drink however and it does not taste bad to me no matter what flavor I add it too. I love that it gives me many nutrients that I may be missing otherwise :)
This is a catch 22 product, it is amazingly nutritious but has a less then desirable taste lol
When I ordered this product, I was afraid that I would not be able to stomach the taste. I will say that the taste is strong. However, I just added a scoop of this to my protein smoothie and it turned it green, but the taste was mild when mixed with fruit, milk, and all of the other things that I add to my smoothie. I liked it! It really is a good product!
Outstanding green food supplement. I have been taking Maximum Greens, Light Force Greens, and Myo Greens for a couple of years and this by far the best green food supplement I have ever taken.
This is an outstanding greens product, arguably the best out there. The profile is great and the antioxidant power of this product is off the charts. The taste is pretty nasty but if I put some water in my mouth and put a heaping teaspoon (not TOO heaping) on top of the water I find that I can swallow it with only a small minority of it ever touching my tongue so it's not like it's all that hard to get down. All greens products taste horrible anyway so if you want anything like this there's really no getting around it regardless of what brand you choose as far as i know.
I used this product to fill a deficiency in my diet, not eating greens, and as a digestive aid. I spin many miles on my bicycle and as a result have a rather high protein diet as well. My daily dosage is the recommended 5 caplets. Since taking this product I have noticed that my digestive system works much better. I also have gained weight which wasn't really intended but when I noticed that this weight gain came without any significant (only .2 %) increase in body fat I was impressed. Since these are caplets there is no problem with taste but they do smell a bit.
Garden of Life makes the highest quality supplements I've found. The taste is very "green" so I highly recommend mixing it with something. My preference is to add some with my protein powder before shaking it up. That being said, I've found that this stuff is great for the immune system. It also aids in faster recuperation after workouts. I keep it on hand at all times and highly recommend it, no matter what form you choose to buy it in.
It has a very strong taste which at times can be hard to drink but the benefits make it worth while. This greens has no fillers with excellent ingredients. The king of all greens.
Great product. Don't buy for taste. Great whole food product. Excellent product.
When you first use this problem you will be appalled by the smell/taste. Duh, it's straight up greens powder. Mix it with some juice and it's very tolerable. It's become an acquired taste for me, and the sense of well being I get after drinking it is amazing.
Wow, this stuff tastes like lawn clippings and can easily overpower your protein shake if you mix. However, the ingredients are worth the horrible taste, especially if you don't get enough vegetables in your diet. It also contains beneficial bacteria for those of us who don't like to eat yogurt.
