Field of Greens Pros & Cons

Field of Greens appeals to the consumer looking for a certified organic, "all-in-one" product that covers many bases with its wide array of fruit and vegetable ingredients. It's a choice for those who value variety, though this often comes at the cost of transparency and a focused, high-potency formulation.

Pros:

USDA Certified Organic: The ingredients are certified organic, which is a significant plus for consumers seeking organic products.
Broad Ingredient Spectrum: Contains a wide variety of about 20 different fruits and vegetables, appealing to those who want a wide non-specific range of formulation.
Multiple Product Versions: Offers different formulas, including a caffeine-free "Raw" version and a "Charged" version with caffeine, providing options, especially for those who are sensitive to it.

Cons:

Lack of Transparency: Hides ingredient quantities behind proprietary blends, so you can't be sure of the potency or dosage of what you're consuming.
Incomplete Gut Health Support: Despite its claims, it lacks both probiotics and digestive enzymes, giving it a second guess at what it really provides.
No Third-Party Testing: There is no information confirming the product is independently tested for purity, potency, or heavy metals.
Multiple Product Versions: Verify which version contains caffeine to avoid negative side effects.

The Field of Greens, Broad Spectrum

Field of Greens takes a different tack, creating a blend from a wide variety of organic fruits and vegetables. The formula aims to provide a broad range of nutrients to support overall wellness, from immunity to metabolism.

However, their use of proprietary blends means the exact amount of each ingredient is not disclosed, making it difficult to know if you're getting a truly effective dose.

Daily Elements Pros & Cons

Daily Elements is designed for the health-conscious individual who prioritizes maximum nutrient potency and unparalleled purity. It's the ideal choice for those who want a clean, transparent, and highly effective nutritional boost without any unnecessary extras.

Pros:

Nutrient Potency: Utilizes freeze-dried microgreens that can be up to 40 times more nutrient-dense than mature plants, offering maximum nutritional impact.
Purity & Transparency: A clean, simple formula with no proprietary blends, fillers, or additives, all sourced from controlled farms in the USA.
Versatility: Being completely unflavored and unsweetened allows it to be mixed discreetly into any meal or drink, from smoothies to soups.

Cons:

Focused Formula: Intentionally leaves out extras like probiotics or adaptogens to focus purely on whole-food, microgreen nutrition.
Natural Green Taste: Its authentic, earthy flavor may be different for those accustomed to artificially sweetened green drinks. (We see it as Pros, but credit where credit is due, we all love sweet things a bit too much…)
Direct-to-Consumer: Available through official website. No grocery-store sold.

The Daily Elements, Purity and Potency

At Daily Elements, we are committed to a philosophy of "less is more." We believe that the most profound health benefits come from pure, high-quality ingredients, not from a long list of additives.

Our formula is built around four incredibly powerful, freeze-dried microgreens: broccoli, kale, red cabbage, and peas.

Conclusion:

While Field of Greens offers a certified organic blend, its use of proprietary formulas, lack of comprehensive gut health support, and absence of third-party testing leave significant room for doubt.

Daily Elements emerges as the superior choice by prioritizing what truly matters: potency, purity, and transparency. Our focused formula of freeze-dried microgreens delivers a powerful, clean, and verifiable nutritional boost without any compromises.

As you weigh your options, the most important thing is, choosing whichever product feels right for you. When you are fighting for a healthy body&mind only thing that matters is what works for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Daily Elements

1. What does Daily Elements actually taste like?

Daily Elements has a very mild, natural, and earthy taste, much like fresh greens. Because it contains no sweeteners, flavorings, or additives, it blends seamlessly and discreetly into smoothies, juices, yogurts, and even sauces without overpowering the original taste of your food.

2. Why does it only contain four ingredients?

Our philosophy is "purity and potency over quantity." Instead of using dozens of ingredients in tiny, ineffective amounts, we focus on four of the most nutrient-dense superfoods on the planet: microgreens.3 This simple, transparent approach ensures you get a powerful, concentrated dose of bioavailable vitamins and minerals without any unnecessary fillers.

3. Does Daily Elements contain caffeine?

No. Daily Elements is completely caffeine-free. The energy boost our users report comes from providing the body with high-quality, easily absorbed nutrition that supports your natural energy levels, not from stimulants.

4. How is Daily Elements different from a regular multivitamin?

While both provide essential nutrients, Daily Elements delivers them from a whole-food source in their most natural state. The freeze-drying process keeps the plant's enzymes and co-factors intact, which helps your body recognize and absorb the nutrients far more effectively than it would with many synthetic, isolated vitamins.

About Field of Greens

1. Is Field of Greens certified organic?

Yes, Field of Greens is made with USDA-certified organic ingredients. This is one of its main selling points for consumers looking specifically for an organic-certified product.

2. Can I see the exact amount of each ingredient?

No. Field of Greens uses "proprietary blends," which means the company does not disclose the specific amount of each ingredient in its formula. While this is common in the supplement industry, it makes it impossible for consumers to know if they are getting a potent and effective dose of the most important components.

3. Does Field of Greens contain probiotics for gut health?

It does not. While Field of Greens contains prebiotic fiber to feed existing gut bacteria, it is missing both probiotics (live beneficial bacteria) and digestive enzymes. For those specifically looking to support their gut microbiome, this is a significant omission.

4. What does Field of Greens taste like?

Field of Greens is a flavored product that is sweetened with stevia.4 While many find it palatable, some customer reviews have mentioned a noticeable "artificial sweetener aftertaste" and that the powder can sometimes be clumpy or settle at the bottom of the glass.

5. Does Field of Greens contain caffeine?

Yes and no. Depending on the version, with “Charged” clearly marked as containing caffeine, and “Standard” marked as caffeine-less.
