“Nutrition is one of our 5 Essentials, and greens powder is one of the fastest ways to close the gap between what people actually eat and what their body needs. We built our Greens + Superfoods to cover that gap with real food-based ingredients — not just a wall of isolated extracts on a label.”
— Dr. Blake Livingood, D.C., Founder of Livingood Daily
For independent context: registered dietitians widely agree greens powders can help fill nutritional gaps but shouldn't replace whole fruits and vegetables, which provide fiber and plant compounds a powder can't fully replicate (source: multiple RD interviews, U.S. News & World Report).
What Is Livingood Daily Greens + Superfoods?
I'm skeptical of greens powders by default — I've tried enough of them to know that “50 superfoods in one scoop” often means 49 of them show up in amounts too small to matter. So when I added Livingood Daily's version to my routine after already testing their Multi Vitamin and Collagen, I went in expecting another proprietary-blend greens powder that's mostly marketing.
It's part of the “nutrition” pillar in the brand's 5 Essentials framework and comes in Original, Berry, Chocolate, and Unflavored. Each scoop combines spirulina, chlorella, barley grass juice, and flaxseed powder with leafy greens, fruit extracts, and functional roots, plus 10 billion CFU of probiotics and a full digestive enzyme blend (amylase, lipase, cellulase, lactase, protease). It runs $67.95 for a 30-serving container — about $2.27 per serving at full price.
5 Reasons It's Worth Your Money
1. Probiotics and enzymes are already built in
A lot of greens powders make you buy a separate probiotic. This one includes 10 billion CFU plus a 5-enzyme digestive blend standard — that's a real cost you'd otherwise pay for elsewhere.
2. Cheaper per serving than AG1, comparable ingredient depth
At $2.27 per serving full price, it undercuts AG1's $2.30–$3.30 range while still delivering a genuinely broad ingredient panel, not a token greens blend.
3. Four flavor options mean you'll actually finish the tub
Original, Berry, Chocolate, and Unflavored cover a lot more ground than the single-flavor-only competitors, which matters more than it sounds — the best greens powder is the one you don't quit on by week two.
4. It mixes into an existing system instead of standing alone
If you're already using other Livingood Daily products, the Greens slots into the same 5 Essentials framework rather than being one more disconnected supplement from a different brand with its own philosophy.
5. The 60-day guarantee lowers your actual risk
Most greens powders give you 30 days to decide if you like it. A 60-day window (plus 15% off with Subscribe & Save) means the real cost of trying it is lower than the sticker price suggests.

My Real Experience: 4 Weeks Testing It
Week 1: I went with Original, mixed into 16oz of water each morning. It's noticeably more “green-tasting” than the fruity greens powders I'd tried before — grassy, a little earthy — but it mixed smoothly with just a shaker bottle, no blender needed. No digestive upset in week 1, which isn't always true when you add 10 billion CFU of probiotics to your routine cold.
Week 2–3: This is where I started tracking bloating specifically, since that's the thing digestive enzyme blends are supposed to help with. I'd had regular afternoon bloating after lunch for months. By day 15, I counted only 2 bloating episodes in the prior 9 days, down from what had been a near-daily occurrence. I also noticed more regular mornings — not a detail I love writing about, but it's exactly the kind of specific, unglamorous result that actually tells you something's working.
Week 4 — the real test: I stopped for 5 days mid-week to see what would change. The afternoon bloating crept back by day 3 off the greens. That's not proof of causation for one person, but it was consistent enough that I went back on it and I'm sticking with it going forward.
What I didn't experience: any noticeable energy boost. Some greens powders market an energy lift, but this formula doesn't include caffeine or stimulants, so if that's what you're after, this isn't the product for it.
What This Greens Powder Does Well
Probiotics and enzymes included standard. No need to buy a separate digestive supplement.
Genuinely smooth mixability. Dissolves with a shaker bottle, no blender required.
Competitive pricing against AG1. Lower cost per serving with a comparably broad ingredient panel.
Flavor variety. Four options versus the single-flavor-only approach many competitors take.
What to Know Before You Order
Taste is more “green” than fruity. If you've only had berry-forward greens powders, the Original flavor's earthiness may take a few days to get used to — the Berry or Chocolate options are a safer starting point if that's a concern.
No added caffeine or energy blend. If you want a greens powder that doubles as a coffee replacement, this isn't formulated for that.
Introduce it slowly. With 10 billion CFU of probiotics, some people notice mild digestive adjustment in the first few days — start with a half scoop if you're sensitive.
How It Compares to Other Greens Powders
| Feature | Livingood Daily | AG1 | Bloom Nutrition | Organifi | Amazing Grass |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Approx. ingredients | 50+ | 75+ | 30+ | ~15 (2 proprietary blends) | ~20 |
| Probiotics included | Yes, 10B CFU | Yes | Yes, with prebiotics | No dedicated strain listed | Yes, pre/probiotic blend |
| Digestive enzymes | Yes, 5-enzyme blend | Not standard | Yes | Not standard | Yes |
| Flavor options | 4 (incl. unflavored) | 1 (original) | Several fruit flavors | 1 (original) | Several |
| Approx. price/serving (full price) | ~$2.27 | ~$3.30 ($2.30–$2.64 subscribed) | ~$1.13 | ~$2.68 (~$2.06 subscribed) | ~$0.90–$1.33 |
| Return window | 60 days | 30–60 days (opened) | 30 days | 30 days | Varies by retailer |
If price is your only filter, Amazing Grass and Bloom are meaningfully cheaper. AG1 has more raw ingredients but costs more per serving even with a subscription. Livingood Daily's Greens lands in a strong middle spot — more complete than the budget options, less expensive than AG1, and one of the few in this list that bundles both probiotics and a full enzyme blend standard.
Who Should Buy This Greens Powder
This is a good fit if you want probiotics and digestive enzymes bundled into your greens powder instead of bought separately, you want flavor options so you'll actually finish the container, and you're already using or considering other Livingood Daily products. It's also a reasonable pick if AG1's price tag has kept you on the sidelines but you don't want to drop to a bare-bones budget powder.
Maybe Wait If…
If your budget is the deciding factor above everything else, Amazing Grass or Bloom will get you a greens powder for close to half the price. And if you specifically want a greens powder that also delivers an energy or caffeine boost, this formula isn't built for that — you'll want to pair it with a separate energy product.
Final Verdict: 4.6/5
Livingood Daily Greens + Superfoods earns its price by including what a lot of competitors treat as optional add-ons — real probiotics, a full digestive enzyme blend, and enough flavor variety that you'll actually keep drinking it past week two. It's not the cheapest greens powder on the shelf, and it doesn't try to double as an energy drink, but for the price it lands in a genuinely strong spot between the budget options and AG1. If gut-focused nutrition is your priority, this earns its spot in the routine.
