Amazing Grass Amazing Trio, 240 G

I decided to rotate my morning green shakes with this Barley, Wheat and Alfalfa blend, as I tend to use a different AG variety every month to supplement my diet with. This blend seems to help with digestion and "regularity" as well as having a cleansing effect. I'll be honest, while the taste is fairly neutral, mixing it with plain coconut milk, it tastes like a mouthful of grass would. Adding a piece of fruit or any sort of flavored powder or milk would make it more pleasant. But I don't drink these for the taste, I woof it down like Rocky drinking two raw eggs in the morning - the noticeable health benefits are fantastic, and the ingredients are very "active" (you can see the spores/growth clinging to the plastic scoop). I keep it in the fridge and put it in a Nutri-Bullet every morning with some coconut mlk (low fat version). It also does a decent job suppressing hunger for a few hours. I find the positive mental and physical energy boosts from this over time to be invaluable for someone in his mid-40's (along with other smart supplementation throughout the day).

I bought this to use for a 3-day detox found in this book Hungry for Change: Ditch the Diets, Conquer the Cravings, and Eat Your Way to Lifelong Health , based on the documentary Hungry for Change. Because the breakfast calls for one of two recipes (one requiring a juice, which I do not have) and one requiring either barley grass or wheat grass powder and spirulina, I ordered this Amazing Grass Amazing Trio and I already had this Nutrex Hawaii Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica Powder, 16-Ounce Bottle . I combined the powders in water; they both mixed up easily with no clumps or mess. For daily use, this concoction would taste much better if blended with a frozen banana or perhaps half an apple, to sweeten it up and mask the very earthy and sea-like taste. However for the purpose of the 3-day detox, I can stand it with just the water. This is incredibly energizing and great for preparing the body for the day. I cannot have caffeine and this wakes me right up. On a side note, I found that this drink is incredibly helpful with eliminating hangovers. I have tried it the morning after a night out with instant relief from hangover symptoms and I've also drank it before bed and woken up without a hangover.

This stuff is great! I can really feel a big boost of energy after taking it! Additionally, I used to have a lot of digestive issues that seem to have cleared up with this product. I really trust Amazing Grass and think their products are top quality. Many years ago I used to use their green superfood powder, but it had a lot of enzymes and probiotics in it that gave me digestive problems and an upset stomach. I like that this powder is just the natural grasses, minus all the enzymes and probiotic additives. The taste is not great, but not bad. It's slightly sweet with a grassy flavor. I've tried it in apple juice, but it was way too sweet for me. I just mix it in a little bit of water. I don't enjoy it, but it's easy enough to just gulp down and chase with some water to get the flavor out of your mouth. If you used it in a big smoothie you probably wouldn't notice it much.

I do think this is gritty when just disolved in water, no matter how much I stir it. It tastes the way you expect greens powder to taste. It tastes healthy and like you’re doing something good for your body, because you are! It’s an easy and convenient way to get those nutrients and micro nutrients and go on with your day. Sometimes I put it into a protein smoothie and more often it’s just stirred into water or maybe some fruit juice if I’m feeling fancy. I’m here to re-order. I think it’s one of the better greens on the market.

good product. delivered as promised.
