Dietitians Review Greens Powders

U.S. Food and Drug Administration ruling classifies dietary supplements as food rather than medicine. The classification means greens powders face no required testing to confirm that labels match contents or that advertised benefits occur. Products may contain ingredients not listed on packaging or omit ingredients that labels claim to include.

The health supplement market has expanded under these conditions.

Wired reported that the writer consulted dietitians and conducted taste tests on products from multiple brands. Bloom Nutrition’s Superfood Greens Powder was identified as the preferred option after several months of evaluation. The same report noted that the lack of regulatory standards leaves consumers responsible for verifying product contents and effectiveness.
