When it comes to smoothies, we all know that fresh is best…
Even when it comes to superfood.
But we need to be realistic too because life sometimes gets in the way of fresh.
Sometimes your leafy greens go bad, or you didn’t buy enough, or you haven’t gone to the store to buy more yet.
And sometimes you can’t get organic leafy greens, or even a big variety of leafy greens.

And if this is the case, it can be much better to use an organic green powder than consume a bucket load of pesticides on your non organic greens.
Because leafy greens are one of the most heavily sprayed foods when it comes to pesticides, so it’s something you do need to be extra careful about.
I can only really get 1-3 types of organic leafy greens where I live so I buy these and also use a variety of different powders to increase the nutrients in my Green Thickies.
So here are my 10 best green powders for smoothies to help you get a variety of clean nutrients into your body every single day:
1) Organifi
Now You Can Get All Your Healthy Superfoods In One Drink… With No Shopping, No Blending, No Juicing, and NO CLEANUP! This is my number one favourite green powder because it’s SO tasty AND nutritious and the tubs are just the right size for travel – so it always comes travelling with me.
2) Amazing Grass Green Superfood
This very popular blend combines our alkalizing farm fresh greens and wholesome fruits and veggies with nutrient-rich superfoods for a delicious way to feel amazing every day.
This is my go to green powder when I want to get more for my money.

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

Which superfood powder would you recommend for diabetics?
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
A plant based vegan whole foods diet has been proven to reverse diabetes. But all changes, no matter how small can help.
Jon says
I love green juice but what many consumers forget IMO is that they still need a balanced diet and exercise. I have a client for example that loves green juice and is committed to the cause, with the exception of not exercising. It’s not a panacea, but it can be amazing if you’ve got all your other ducks in a row!
Katherine Kyle @ Green Thickies says
Yes I agree with you. There are many pillars to good health and diet is just one of them.
