Green Drink Reviews: Green Defense
July 6th, 2008
A well-rounded mixture with the emphasis on fiber, veggie powders and greens (in that order). Unfortunately, we feel that they went a little overboard with the fibers, which consist of more than 1/2 of the mix. They also use a fiber containing a fructose-derived ingredient, which helps the taste of the product, but adds fructose to your diet…something you probably don’t need. Anyway, other than this, but mixture is good and carries a compelling price tag.

I can’t wait for your review. I was a Dr. Schultz devotee but was off-put by the yeast (mainly because I couldn’t tell how much was added so I suspected it was cheap filler). So I’ve tried various other green mixes and really liked this one, mainly because it helped fix a “dent” in my body created by a steroid shot. Nothing else helped. Weird I know; maybe it helped increase circulation?
Anyway, I haven’t bought it since because I haven’t seen it on sale, but am curious what your think.
