I recently contacted Amazing Grass about their gluten free status and was delighted to hear back from Teri that all of their products are gluten free. I was even more delighted when she told me she would send me some samples to try and review on the blog. The first thing I tried was the berry Green Super Food in a glass of juice.
Now, I gotta tell you, the taste and texture is…eh…an acquired taste. It is a bit green tasting and it really gritty. I think it is much better suited for a smoothie where the texture and flavor would be less obvious.
All of that aside, the health benefits are awesome and they are great for an energy boost. From the amazing grass website:
“Amazing Grass Berry Green SuperFood is a perfect blend of alkalizing greens, antioxidant rich whole food fruits and vegetables, immune boosting support herbs, friendly pre & probiotics all infused with acai and goji berries. ”
Doesn’t get much better than that. I will definitely be adding some of the amazing grass products to my rotation though I’m not sure with the cost that I will go beyond the bars and sample packs every now and then.

You’ll have to let me know how your body continues to do with AG. I’m not 100% sure I’m OK with it… but I bought a tub of it, so I’ll be trying it again soon. Have you tried the chocolate flavor? I liked it.

Yeah, the Amazing Grass stuff is best in a smoothie – I find it quite ‘gritty’!
