PHD Nutrition: Greens pH-7

Review by Adam Nugent, resident Predator Personal Trainer and Fitness Competitor

I've always been a stickler for getting the nutrients I need from my diet rather than taking them in supplement form. However, that might all be about to change. Greens pH-7 contains an impressive blend of wholefoods, fruit extracts, vegetable extracts and fruit fibres that would be difficult for even the most virtuous of dieters to obtain on a daily basis.

Let's demonstrate this with a quick snapshot of some of its key ingredients. Spirulina and wheat grass are a natural source of chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals and amino acids. Chlorella (green algae) is one of the nutrient-dense superfoods in the world, rich in protein, iron, magnesium, zinc, phosphorus and vitamins A, B1, B2, B3 and B6.

Its blend of leafy greens includes barley grass, alfalfa grass, spinach leaf and broccoli, which are packed with dietary fibre, folic acid, vitamin C, potassium and magnesium, whilst extracts of acerola berry, pomegranate, blueberry and other juicy fruits are loaded with vitamin C and fibre, and ginseng and green tea leaf provide a natural energy boost.

As with many greens supplements the taste could be better, but given the multitude of health benefits that Greens pH-7 delivers, its tang is well worth tolerating. In summary, if you struggle to get your 5-8 a day or often find yourself being too busy to agonise over meal plans, obtain hard-to-find ingredients and prepare complicated concoctions based around a host of superfoods, Greens pH-7 will give your body the health kick it needs.
