FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are superfoods?

Superfoods is a general marketing term for foods valued for their nutrient content or plant compounds. It is not a formal scientific or regulatory food classification.

Are greens powders a replacement for vegetables?

No. Greens powders may provide selected nutrients but do not fully replace the fibre, water, and nutritional variety found in whole vegetables.

What is the difference between spirulina and chlorella?

Spirulina is a cyanobacterium, while chlorella is a green microalga. Their nutrient profiles and product formulations differ.

Can superfoods increase energy?

Some products supply nutrients involved in normal energy metabolism, but they do not necessarily increase energy in people who already meet their nutritional needs.

Do superfood powders detox the body?

There is insufficient clinical evidence that general superfood or greens powders remove toxins. The liver and kidneys carry out the body's primary detoxification functions.

Can I add superfood powders to smoothies?

Yes. Many are designed to be mixed into smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, or other foods, following the manufacturer's directions.
