Tod Cooperman, M.D., from ConsumerLab.com explains why "fruits" and "veggies" supplements are not substitutes for getting the recommended daily intakes of fruits and vegetables, despite marketing claims for some saying they are. At best, only one-fifth of the adult daily requirement might be met with a suggested daily serving of any of these products. ConsumerLab recently purchased and tested these supplements in its Fruits, Veggies, and Other Greens Supplements Review bit.ly/3IrM5zu.
Greens powders, pills, and gummies are made from dried or concentrated vegetables, fruits, grasses, and certain types of algae (e.g., chlorella and spirulina), providing a variety of nutrients such as carotenoids, antioxidants, amino acids, enzymes, nucleic acids, fiber, vitamins and minerals that can have healthful benefits. However, the amounts provided in most supplements is small.
In its tests, ConsumerLab.com discovered that tablets of two products would not properly break apart. Small amounts of lead were found in products, three of which should, consequently, not be used on a regular basis by children and pregnant women.
