Inside the daily pouch
Superfood Greens Blend
The greens blend is a 200mg mix of fourteen concentrated plants inside the Daily Greens+ gummy, one of six in the daily GUUDIES pouch. It is the part that makes Daily Greens+ more than a plain multivitamin.

Not all greens are green
The category name is a bit of a misnomer. Only spinach, kale, moringa and the two algae are actually leafy greens. The rest are roots, seeds, bark, a flower and a fruit. What they have in common is being concentrated plant material rather than being the same colour.
The two algae
Spirulina is a cyanobacterium, a blue green algae, and one of the oldest organisms on earth. Chlorella is a single celled green algae with a tough cell wall that has to be broken during processing for anything inside to be available at all. Both are grown rather than harvested wild, which matters, since algae readily take up whatever is in the water around them.

Honest about 200mg
Two hundred milligrams is a fifth of a gram. A greens powder serving is typically several grams, and a portion of actual vegetables is 80 grams. So this is a top up, not a substitute, and anyone telling you a gummy replaces vegetables is selling you something.
What a gummy has over a powder is that people take it. A scoop you have to mix, wash up after and tolerate the taste of is a scoop that gets skipped. That is the whole trade off, and we would rather state it than dress it up.
Ashwagandha and pregnancy
Ashwagandha is not recommended during pregnancy. If you are pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, check with your GP or midwife before taking any supplement containing it.
Which gummy carries it
The greens blend sits in Daily Greens+, tropical flavour, alongside vitamin D3, vitamin K2, vitamins A, C and E, the B complex and zinc, copper, iodine and chromium.
Common questions
What is in the greens blend?
Spinach, kale, spirulina, chlorella, moringa, holy basil, ashwagandha, ginger, cinnamon, beetroot, hibiscus, flaxseed, chia seeds and acerola cherry powder, 200mg in total.
Does it replace eating vegetables?
No. Two hundred milligrams is a fifth of a gram, against 80 grams for a portion of vegetables. It is a daily top up, not a substitute.
How does it compare to a greens powder?
A powder carries several grams per serving, far more than a gummy can. The gummy wins on being taken consistently rather than abandoned after a fortnight.
Is the greens blend vegan?
Yes. Daily Greens+ is plant based and pectin based, with no gelatine.
Can I take it if I am pregnant?
Ashwagandha is not recommended during pregnancy. Check with your GP or midwife before taking any supplement containing it.
Is spirulina a plant?
Not strictly. It is a cyanobacterium, sometimes called blue green algae. Chlorella is a true single celled green algae.
