Overview

The supplement provides 100% of the Daily Value for several key vitamins, which is a foundational benefit. The inclusion of various green powders, fruit/vegetable extracts, digestive enzymes, and probiotics suggests a comprehensive approach to general wellness. However, the efficacy of many plant extracts is difficult to assess due to proprietary blend issues within the 'Truserv' and 'Spectra' components, meaning individual ingredient doses cannot be confirmed as clinically effective. Some ingredients are present at doses that may offer benefits (e.g., Psyllium, Barley Grass, Wheat Grass, Chlorella, Spirulina), but the effectiveness of the extensive range of fruit and vegetable extracts is questionable given the total blend size.

The Good

Comprehensive multivitamin profile at 100% Daily Values.

Good doses of beneficial green superfood powders (Barley Grass, Wheat Grass, Chlorella, Spirulina).

Contains Psyllium for fiber and digestive regularity at a beneficial dose.

The Bad

Proprietary blends ('Truserv' and 'Spectra') obscure individual ingredient transparency, making it difficult to verify effective dosing for many fruit and vegetable extracts.

California Prop 65 warning for lead, although common for many plant products, may concern some consumers.

Potential for underdosed individual fruit and vegetable extracts within the large proprietary blends.
