Looking for a good greenfood to buy at a reasonable price. Can anyone reccomend a good one, or a good site. I've bought GREENS+ at HyVee, but it is expensive. Would appreciate any help and/or advice about price or another good product. Thanks

"InnerLight's balanced SuperGreens formulation includes organic, concentrated ingredients, many of them sprouted- when the plant is at its nutritional peak. Each ingredient in the formula is concentrated at its cleanest and purest state, and SuperGreens contains no sweeteners of any kind.

InnerLight SuperGreens, created by Dr. Robert O. Young, is an exclusive, synergistic blend of 49 organic grasses, grains, and green vegetables. This nutrient-rich, alkaline formula helps to gently pull the blood and tissue balance from an acid base to an increasingly healthy alkaline state."

This is a great way to get greens "on the run." It is alkalizing, energizing, hydrating, and a great and cheap way to get what you need when you don't have access to the fresh stuff. It is around $40 I think for 1/4 pound, but it lasts a long time. I drink one liter with one teaspoon of the greens and at least two liters of this daily in addition to 2 more liters of water.

The following shows the ingredients of many green drink products and highlights some of the benefits of each element:
