What makes him one of the best science communicators is that he doesn’t shame and demystifies in a way that doesn’t make the viewer feel dumb. Thanks for all you do.
So, a few considerations:
On the nutrition side of things, keep in mind that this is a dry powder from fresh ingredients. Yes, destroying the cell membranes is a sort of a pre-digestion deal that will likely increase the bioavailability of nutrients that do not oxidize (consider garlic that is most nutritious eaten whole to minimize oxygen exposure). The method of drying will also make a difference; freeze drying is well established to protect many of the nutrients in a whole food. Pretty much any other form of drying is going to degrade the nutrient value. From what I can tell, AG1 is at least partially freeze dried; I could only find that the probiotics were freeze dried which leaves a suspicious omission, but check for yourself.
That said, a more cost effective method of getting the same effect is to just buy the whole ingredients, blend them into a shake and what you don't drink immediately you seal in an airtight container and refrigerate to avoid degradation.
Also like any supplement you should probably eat something with it to slow digestion and increase nutrient intake. Ideally something high in fiber to slow down digestion otherwise that liquid will shoot right through you.
Regardless, take a moment and ask yourself if your diet is actually missing anything. Adding something packed with nutrients onto a complete diet really isn't going to do anything for you. Green juice is really for people that struggle to eat enough, or can't motivate themselves to eat the right foods. If you already have a healthy diet maybe save your money.
Also wanted to throw in a +1 on the fasting. It's not for everyone and you have to be ready to pay close attention to your body (and probably talk to a doctor first) but it can be a fantastic experience. Note that may of the benefits, like full autophagy, don't kick in until around day 2. I don't go past 3 days, which seems to be widely regarded as the safe limit for most people. You do you, but understand if you reach a hunger panic (you'll know it when you feel it) it's time to end the fast. And start with a simple soup (make some in advance in case you need to end the fast), slowly add solids back and make sure you're reintroducing magnesium early on. There is a potentially dangerous condition called refeeding syndrome that can occur if you eat too much too quickly. I've never gone that far, but a couple times a craving for rice has made for some very unpleasant spikes in blood sugar.
A green juice, presuming it absorbs as well as advertised, would be a great pre-fast food supplement. Taking a couple days to lower intake and supplement with a high nutrient beverage will almost certainly help your fast go more smoothly. You're basically forcing your body to run through its reserves, so having a large stockpile is ideal. That said, as noted above, if there's nothing solid in your system a juice is likely going to pass right through you with minimal absorption so drinking it during a fast won't just break a true fast, but it's also not going to be absorbed super efficiently even with your body's desperation for nutrients. All around not a great idea.
I appreciate this input!, person who has same name as me lol
I read that as pre fast food supplement, like drink this then go eat some McDonald’s hahaha
@@quartzofcourse Naw, pretty sure both of those are going through your system pretty quickly.
@@NoLabCoatRequired Ha ha, any time name brother!
@@quartzofcourse That's exactly what I did, lol!
I have to say, I've been super skeptical about these supplements. Thanks for looking into them.
I appreciate your comment and your support!!
The green drinks are basically a drinkable multivitamin with more fiber
But our culture associates unpleasant experiences with "good for you" so when you drink what tastes like late Summer pond water, it feels like it has to be healthy. 😁
Thanks for plugging your IG - following you there now. And I noticed that Hank Green follows your IG. How cool is that?!?!

No Lab Coat Required coming in clutch and doing the researching leg work for us 😎
Thank you so much!! I've been wanting to use these or buy some for my family, but haven't been sure they aren't a scam like so many other products widely advertised through UA-camrs, now I'll know once I watch!
It's just basically a mixture of toxic waste products absolutely soaked in pesticides
I'm in camp D; I understand that some people might find it genuinely helpful to use these to add some vegetable matter to their diet, but I am someone who enjoys adding broccoli to ramen and eating multiple steamed artichokes in a sitting. I do not need a weird health drink to get me to down some greens.
what about boat E: i never drank green juice before it looks smells and tastes like blended up moldy lawn shavings mixed with shrek coom to me i’ll pass thanks
was instantly excited to see this video pop up on my home page
same
I drink the huel green juice just to get more healthy nutrients in my diet for low veggie days, so it is good to see that it is doing that.
You're trusting that what they say is in the mix is actually in the mix.
Supplements companies do not have a good record of actually putting the ingredient in the product.
@@zacrl1230 if they are even 50 percent truthful in the ingredients list, I would consider it worth it as a healthy snack.
@@zacrl1230legally the gotta, or they'll be sued and blocked from sale. That said they can also be using sources of ingredients rich in heavy metals or or harmful things
One of the big problems in assessing whether these make you feel good is that there is the placebo effect. You think it's going to make you feel good therefore it makes you feel good. And yes this is a real scientific phenomenon, not just with green juice but with a lot of things.
Same goes with over the counter drugs or prescribed, the mind and body can heal itself or make it ill.
You can think yourself well, or sick.
I really appreciate your grounded, sensible, deep yet approachable analysis and opinions. I love how close you stay to the literature yet you can translate it to everyday practical lessons.
Green juice used as a basic nutrient supplement, can produce energy for us that we need in order to work out and thus lose weight. That's about it. I lost 50 pounds using AG1, because it filled in the gaps on my nutrient deficiency. It didn't provide me anything more than a low-calorie food source.
Detox is a stupid word, period.
I loved that pause after the two eggs gag.
Once again, great editing. Phenomenal use of light background music. You've got great work here man, I hope you have over a million subs soon.
what's the word to use for removing toxins from a body then? Can you offer a term to replace that dumb word?
Boat C, and I thank you for helping my understanding of the situation.
Generally, if you see a UA-camr promoting something, be it supplements or crypto. It's probably a Scam
Depends on if the UA-camr is being paid.
If a UA-cam is promoting something, it’s a scam. Whether they are being paid or not.
@@steelfoeso basically a scam that takes effort with no benefits to the person promoting it? genius
@steelfoe Nah, I've gotten connected with several valuable projects and products through YT, and saved a bundle on car repairs to boot... all with great music, too. Plenty of quality products on Project Farm.
I've never seen Project Farm try to sell people on AG or Raid shadow legends, there are youtubers that do honest reviews, however a lot of them try to shill people on predatory products and companies, that pay them to do so, @AutitsicDysexlia
I'd be very interested in an episode about iron bioavailability. I got myself in a tangle trying to figure out just how much greens I need to eat to get the iron I need. I found a lot of chatter about heme vs non-heme iron and ended up in a tail-spin.
greens arent for iron
I'm in boat C. It hasn't occurred me to consider if it's a sham or not. I already have my situation straightened out with beef, butter, bacon, and eggs. It works for me, it gives me the results, but I'm also not gonna act like this is the one solution for everyone and I'm actually curious if I'd ever recommend this for the health conscious omnivore.
Is that all you eat? Curious to know how that's going. I'm primarily carnivore, but I do fold some lower toxicity non animal things in. I need some variety.
I'm not in any boat; I'm just here because I love what you do on this channel.
I've been fasting often for about a year and love it. I'd love to see you do a video on fasting.
Another awesome video! Love your style of videos, keep em coming!
Spring water is still my favorite beverage.
Every one of your videos is a gem my dude. Thanks for putting in so much time and effort into your work, it really shows :)
Been enjoyin yer channel- a friend turned me on to it the other day. That’s the first video over 3 minutes I actually watched to the end- very informative/entertaining! I wish I didn’t have the attention span of a gnat, but I-oh look a llama… 😂
I am usually starting in boat c and this man always clears things up for me
Me too!
IVE BEEN WANTING A VIDEO JUST LIKE THIS. THIS IS AWESOME
Great video again. you are one of my favorite channels.
I absolutely love this channel!
Nice job young man! Love your content! 👏🏾
As usual, well researched and delivered in a uniquely engaging way
Great video as always!
You're really good. I hope you are able to continue to grow your audience, and keep this up for a long time.
I make a smoothie some days eith milk, fruit, kale, spinach, spirulina, chia seeds, protein powder etc ehatever i wanna throw in. I feel like eating greens is good enough to not need these things. But the bioavailability of nutrients definitely can play a part in needing these things.
Kale is a sad disgusting mutant joke
What are you adding to your kale to make it bioavailable? Because it's very low on bioavailability on its own.
@justinwhite2725 so idk, my ninja blender blends it really well but I've still had that bad stomach pain after from the games that is released when the kale is breaking down, if I remember right? Anyway idk much about bioavailability, I just know it'd a thing. I've made quinoa and put kale on the top to steam in the pan. I've put kale in the oven to crisp up... I haven't looked into it further tbh.
@justinwhite2725 all I know is that it's one of the healthiest foods. I think the knowledge about this isn't really common, I think people just think eating blank equals blank nutrient and that's just the simple version.
Keep up the great work! ❤
You know what IS good? The HUEL bottle. I love that stupid thing...never tried HUEL though.
Thank you. Great work.
Excellent analysis. Very logical and well researched.
Thanks for the information. You answered alot of the questions I had.
I am in boat D. Never even heard of it
This dude knows what he is talking about. I am so happy his channel turned up in my feed a few months ago. I studied nutrition/chemistry many years ago and what he says makes perfect sense to me. The key thing deciding what to put in my body especially in terms vitamin/mineral supplement is bioavailability. If I don't know I look it up. You would be surprised at the number of ingredients in supplements that are not bioavailable. Also taking 200+% of the RDA of a vitamin/mineral is crazy. You are just going to pee it out provided it is water soluble. That is why your pee in intense yellow.
Thanks for this !
I used Ag1 during the stupid cycle of my weight loss journey, because i was really trying to break up my terrible relationship with food that meant I ate the same boring shit over and over for several months. While it was whole food it was just defaulted to not varied enough to get everything I needed. It got me through that cycle and I started introducing more varied whole foods again so I feel like it's mostly overkill at this point so im done wasting my money on it anymore. Id pay 30-35 a month topps, can't keep up with the 79+shipping for something that at this point, does essentially nothing.
Great video, subbed 🙌
Vegetables are largely water and indigestion cell walls. I believe this stuff is made by juicing the plants and freeze drying to remove the water so that you are left with the nutritional stuff. It seems like a nice shortcut to nutrients that bypasses the process of having to eat food that tastes terrible.
On this topic - what about protien powders? I was looking to see if you had a video on them and i couldnt find one. I think your take would be good!
I'll grab a premix bottle of Huel from time to time if i'm not particularly hungry or just don't have time to cook or even sit down to eat. I'm not particularly food motivated, so can be prone to skipping food for a day or sometimes even two; so these come in clutch.
love your channel ❤
Duuude I'm guessing it wasn't just me getting all these green juice ads!, you answered my question on you first topic and then doubled down on my interest when you said one of the best uses is meal replacement!. I remember 3 years ago I got diagnosed type 2 diabetes, my A1C was 7.2, doctors said I'm young (29 at the time) so we can turn this around. I binged on health topics and did a month of paleo plus intermittent fasting (eating between noon and 8 all my calories) and got that A1C to 5.6 in 30 days. Even lost 30 pounds of pure fat (I was weighted on those machines with anodes to tell body composition). I use to do green smoothies to replace meals all the time but is time consuming, can't wait try give Huel a try for that. Thanks a bunch man!
Endocrinologist say that intermittent fasting is not good for diabetics. Neither I nor II
@@LKMNOP yeah, it avoids any uncertainty or situation of you having low blood sugar. When you have a handle on what you are eating (hence my month of crazy health research) you don't have to worry about that because blood sugar goes down up to a point and eventually the body uses fat for energy. It takes a proper diet to trigger that of course.
@@LKMNOP... Doctors say a lot of things so they can't be held liable.
Only the ones with investments in the food industry will speak on what people Should Do.
That is backASSwards IF that person is interested in Truly Helping other People.
My cousin did her internship at Rush, and until COVID, refused to give Medical Advise unless in her Office, cuz that is what she was taught.
@@LKMNOP yeah they say lots of crap they were told but don't fully understand. Each time you eat, your insulin spikes, did you endo tell you that? Diabetes is affected by insulin, is it not? II is due to lack of insulin sensitivity...why? You blasting insulin constantly by eating too much and too many high glycemic index foods. So where's the logic that limiting the times you eat makes that worse? You hurt people with your blind ignorance believing anything someone with a title says without verifying. Stop doing evil work.
I love you! Thank you so much for this video. 2 eggs + scoop of green juice... love it!
Great content!
you cover all the best things my dude
So green powder is good for people who can't be bothered eating healthily? Sounds like I should get some to support my hotdog diet.
You are, seriously, one of the greatest assets to humanity currently existing. You rock, JC!
Loved the info on Green Juice!
Would also like to hear your thoughts on Blue Juice next! (Methylene Blue)
Sorrywhat?
That's a pigment often used to colour cells. .... And it's very staining...
it’s great for disinfecting aquarium tanks and fish with parasites disease or growths :)
he's right, tea time is the shit
You forgot vote choice D: Never heard of it.
I’m listening and reading 😉
Great video bro
Blueberries will do all this and more. A real superfood. Doesn't need any processing. Delicious. Although blueberries will stain your fingers or your clothes.
Source: Healthline
wild berries like elder, huckleberry, currants, gooseberries, salal, crowberry, cloudberry/bakeapple, partridge berries, woodland strawberries, bunchberry/red osier dogwood, soapberry, oso berry(ndn plum), oregon grape, thimbleberry, salmon berry, wild raspberry, trailing blackberries, chokecherry, lingonberry, saskatoon berry, sumac, hairy manzanita, hawthorn, mulberry, crabapple, bear berry(kinnickinnik) and twisted stalk are also great wild alternatives to blueberries or bilberries depending on the climate and environment you live in. just be absolutely sure your plant ID is correct to avoid accidentally ingesting toxic duplicates, make sure the area hasn’t been sprayed with chemicals like pesticides or herbicide, don’t eat plants from areas that flood frequently as this can make you sick, forage berries from the waist up unless you’re certain no dogs have been around in the area, don’t forage on private property or protected land, avoid areas next to busy roadsides as plants can absorb harmful fumes from vehicles, and lastly make sure you never pick a native plant bare of fruit and make sure you avoid returning to the same source at too-frequent intervals. happy snacking! :)
Nice breakdown. For me, the main question though, is if they actually offer anything significantly better than standard vitamin supplements. The reason I think this is a big deal is because AG1 and Organifi (haven't looked at Huel) are incredibly expensive. It sounds like their most likely actual benefit is to act as a micronutrient supplement if you are deficient, but again, there are all kinds of vitamin supplements out there already, that cost quite a bit less, so again, are these so much better that it justifies the extra cost.
This is the first of your things I’ve seen. Im impressed - a lot of thought,research, and knowledge displayed, as well as clear thinking. I shocked my skeptical self by buying AG-1. So far, meh…
good talk thks
Boat C because I make my own lol but I need to know if these powders are worth it as well. Sometimes I don’t have time to make a huge batch or favorite ingredients aren’t available.
Good video. I wish there was more of a focus on how useful the nutritional profile of these drinks are though. What kinds of diets would benefit from supplementation of these nutrients? What kinds of diets wouldn't benefit much at all? What meals might cover all of the nutrients offered by these drinks?
I believe this is one claim that all brands imply (we give you nutrient powder and you need this powder -> therefore you are nutritionally deficient) but this question was barely addressed
Thanks for comment! You can almost consider green juices as a multi-vitamin. In fact, one or the other is ideal, both would be unnecessary. Diet wise, the best start will always be whole foods, full stop. A green juice powder drink isn't coming with anything special that you can't find outside of a whole foods diet, whether keto, carnivore, vegan, etc... to answer your question, I hinted at eggs being rich in a variety of vitamins, say for example you consume some eggs and a meal with dark leafy greens in one day; you'd already be checking off quite a few nutritional boxes. Not to mention as a last point, vitamins remain in the body for longer than we think and we (especially in America and similarly developed countries) are hardly ever deficient to the point of an ailment. Green juices and multi-vitamins are for those that want to ensure they're getting what they need, however, they're likely not deficient.
@@NoLabCoatRequired thanks for the detailed response!
@@NoLabCoatRequired...I wouldn't have the patience for uTube Comments section.
I would have told them to go make their own supplement and drink it, since your Humor was wasted on them.
Must be that whole shoulder lowering thing you got going.
Nutritional boost, a lot of these things promise but they'll give you fat soluble vitamins and minerals and no fat, so you don't get any benefits it's like drinking water
You're supposed to have it alongside your frozen pizza and donuts, dumbdumb! 😂
only if you put it in water
This is such an important point that is so often missed. Same thing can happen if other nutrients aren’t present with it, like D3 and calcium and fat. Or Vitamin C and iron. Nutrients need to be in combination with others to be properly utilized. Which is where research comes in because most companies will sell you this stuff as a low calorie food when it needs fats or proteins to work which will up the calories. So insidious.
Right around the time I got some NUUN Drink tablet thingies. Very well explained.
I use NUUN for when I'm out backpacking for a few days. It flavors the filtered water and replaces some electrolytes.
i personally use liquid IV when i need it, it’s recommended a lot in the POTS and dysautonomia community and it’s actually decent tasting and not like children’s cough medicine. if i can’t make it or i’m too busy i’ll stop and get gatorade or biosteel
I don't drink "green juice" but i love green tea.
I’ve taken AG1 for almost two years. It’s mostly about gut health and it works
I use bloom and it’s been a GOD SEND for my IBS-C. I used to go weeks without a bowel movement and be in so much pain but now I’m starting to be more regular.
Something thats coming to light lately is the idea that some food products are "pre-digested" in that they are brokrn down into powders or slurries and made into things like this or formed into things like chips and bars. So they body doesnt Work as hard to digest and doesn't use energy to digest (which os a bit of a bad thing sometimes) so its just more calories in a person, when the average person isn't as active as they should be already.
Now that you mention drinks, how you feel about probiotics sodas? Like Ollipop, or Poppy? Matter of fact, are the seltzer waters that people use to replace soda any better? Aside from sugar of course
I love green juices and smoothies to aid digestion, but I’ve never tried the powders. I think they are probably healthy, but maybe not worth the price compared to just buying some frozen kale and spinach and blending it up with a couple fruits.
"I know the kind of person you are..."
Me - "You don't know me!" .......""Oh ok yeah you are right"
clutch timing on this as i'm in the middle of constructing a new nutrition plan
Check out the proper human diet (Dr. Berry)
When you talked about "cleansing", there is one thing probably more important than fasting to "clean out" your body: fibre. Your gut needs fibre to be able to push out its waste. If you suddenly increase your fibre consumption too fast, you may get a quite sudden demonstration of the words "clean out" 8-24h later 😅
Additionally, fibre is also one of the things that makes a person feel full, making them less likely to overeat. So fibre genuinely does help with weight loss too!
And those are some of the big reasons why fruits, veggies, and whole grains are so healthy for you!
Full on thought you were going to say fiber for the best way to clean out the body lol
Which, if you're getting enough fiber (of both types), it helps keep everything moving cleanly, too
Me, being semi skeptical but also drinking a smoothie with Huel while I watch this. It was on sale and I thought Why Not? The perks have to be somewhat there.
Oh - would you be willing to breakdown non-fat dairy items? My mom still subscribes to it from the 90s.
The way to use it for weight loss would be as a meal replacement. Mix in some whey protein, and it's a low calorie, high nutrient meal.
Whenever I see the word "Detox" on a product, I run the opposite direction.
Thank you for the video.
Cooking is the most popular way of liberating nutrients from the food matrix, followed by fermentation. Certain forms of cooking both liberate and destroy some nutrients, while others may remove nutrients from the solid food and place it in the surrounding liquid. Pressure cooking for long periods of time is the most-accessible (and often optimal) way to liberate and keep as much nutrition as possible. It allows bones and tough parts of plants to be eaten at all, while also making the nutrients more bioavailable from the usually-eaten parts.
PS: A lot of "processed food" exists because of it being a way to liberate nutrients from the food matrix and thus get more energy per pound of raw material to the end consumer. Most forms of this happen to be aiming for raw calories, as the specific inventions derive from roughly the 100 year span of 19th century thru the 1960s when large portions of the population struggled to get enough to eat in the US, Europe, and East Asia. Corn Flakes, Wonder Bread and Instant Ramen are forms of this. "Easy to digest" was an old tagline for foods like this.
I never expected one of the arguments to be about enjoyment. But then, I did make myself some seltzer while watching the video...
I tried a green juice powder and did not react well. I didn’t know ahead of time, but most of these powders are made with spirulina. Spirulina boosts the immune system, which can be good for some. However, for those with autoimmune conditions like me it can cause a flare up. So, be careful out there.
Boat D: Heard of AG1 from Wendigoon and that’s it
Bioavailability: The fraction of a consumed nutrient/drug that is absorbed into the blood AND not immediately broken down by the liver, such that it can actually have an effect on the organism. Absorption and breakdown can be influenced through other substances.
The whole thing about whether active substances are trapped within plant cells, coupled to some other molecule, whether they're readily water soluble or not, etc., has the formal term of "liberation" in pharmaceutical literature. How to prepare a compound that has good liberation and resorption is a question of galenic formulation.
"mister liver himself" that was gold :D
I'm curious about the cousin of green juice: Meal replacement shakes like Soylent.
You should do a video on the adaptogenic mushroom blend like ryze
Heya, do you have a shilajit video?
I think a lot of people just expect miracles from supplements but don’t change their diet at all. Adding this to a standard American diet will likely net very little benefit because they’re already consuming too many foods that impact them negatively. I think the only way to see if these powders do anything to have someone on a consistent diet for 30 days, do blood tests, add the powder while maintaining the same diet over another 30 days and doing more blood work at the end. I honestly think it would be a negligible impact if a test like that was ran and the individual had a decent diet prior to that.
Great video! I’d like to see a video about the effects of a carnivore diet. It’s been working great for myself over the last few months.
Do you have a video on fasting? I'm doing a liquid fast right now trying to improve things in my body and lose some weight to boot. I find myself thinking "what's the right number of days to continue this fast? If I only do it for two days, will there be any benefits? etc. When I was young I bought into the whole green juice fast thing, not powders, but running kale through a nice juicer. All of my information on that was not nearly as scientific as I'd like. There's another video idea, old-school green juice.
I'm in boat D. I've never heard of it before.
Can we get a video on RSO (Rick Simpson Oil)? Please ❤
bioavailability is why you add sunflower lecithin to your special cookies
it's an important and helpful thing to know
Another thing green juice products get wrong is that kale MUST be cooked to reduce the harm it WILL inflict on your thyroid. Adding kelp powder or maybe something like spirulina or chlorella can counter balance the kale's effects on the thyroid.
I'd be interested in how exercise also increases autophagy.
Could you do a video on kombucha? I primarily drink it because i like it, but i hear all these conflicting arguments about it being good for your gut bacteria or that it does absolutely nothing.
I'm glad to know I've been using green juice right as a meal replacer, but more like an extra meal technically. I don't eat enough...
i do that with protein shakes with ice cream added in when eating solids is super difficult some days, i’m underweight struggle with an ED and have hyperthyroidism which messes with my metabolism by putting it on overdrive so calorie dense hearty shakes do the trick sometimes
In terms of weight loss, the only thing I can see these things doing is reinforcing healthy habits and replacing things like soda and juice.
So happy I stumbled upon your channel!
