The best greens powders are designed to help supplement your diet when you can’t get all of your nutrients from whole food sources alone. But those can get tiresome after a while, and finding one that tastes good can feel like a huge chore. So when I heard about grüns greens gummies, I was skeptical but intrigued. Could nutritional gummies actually taste great?
I’m happy to report that they can.
For this grüns review, I ate one pack of gummies every day for a month. I also consulted with Destini Moody, RD, CSSD, LD, to get her expert opinion on their formulation. Below, I’ll share my honest thoughts about whether or not these healthy gummy bears are worth adding to your daily routine.

A Quick Look at grüns
Grüns currently sells two daily nutritional supplements, one for adults and one for kids. They come in gummy form and aim to support whole-body health and wellness. Each adult snack pack contains 100% of the Daily Value (DV) of important vitamins, such as A, C, D3, E, and K2, plus around 25% DV of minerals like chromium, copper, zinc, and iron.
![A look at the front of a bag of grüns daily gummies](https://www.garagegymreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/bag-of-gruns-gummies.jpg)
The plant-based gummies are free from nuts, gluten, and dairy, making them suitable for various dietary needs. They don’t contain any artificial colors or flavors.
Before You Buy
- Each pack of grüns gummy vitamins has 8 grams of added sugar. A sugar-free version is available for those trying to watch their sugar intake.
- Before trying grüns nutritional gummies, check with your doctor to see if you’re deficient in specific nutrients. It might make more sense to supplement only the nutrients your body is lacking.
- You’ll save 25% by signing up for grüns’ AutoShip & Save plan.
Are grüns Worth It?
If you already consume a healthy diet with adequate amounts of fruits and vegetables and/or take a daily multivitamin, grüns may not be necessary. You likely already get enough of the nutrients your body needs for optimal health. If you need a little extra help filling some nutrition gaps, grüns can be a beneficial addition to your daily routine. Just be prepared to spend nearly $3 per snack pack.
Great for:
- People who don’t have easy access to fresh fruits and vegetables
- People who want to take a greens supplement but don’t want to deal with messy powders
- Folks who need to avoid gluten, nuts, and/or dairy
Not recommended for:
- Folks who already consume a healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables
- Individuals who want to avoid supplements with added sugars or stevia
- People with strict budgets

Experience Using grüns
I ate one pack of grüns daily gummies each day for a month. Sometimes I took them first thing in the morning on an empty stomach; other times I took them after a meal. No matter when I ate the gummies, I didn’t experience any negative side effects aside from minor bloating. After a few days, I even started looking forward to taking them.
![An opened bag of grüns gummies next to an individual snack pack](https://www.garagegymreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/bag-of-gruns-gummies-with-individual-snack-pack.jpg)
I can’t say that the gummies greatly affected my mood or energy levels or led to significant progress in my workouts. Perhaps it’s because I only took them for a month, or because I’m already pretty good about eating fruits and veggies most days. Still, grüns left me pleasantly surprised. I’d definitely consider keeping them in my pantry for days when I can’t stick to my normal diet but want to make sure my nutritional bases are covered.
Price Per Serving
A bag of grüns with 28 snack packs costs about $79, which equals around $2.82 per serving. I gave them 1 out of 5 stars for price because this is one of the most expensive super greens supplements I’ve seen. Even with the increasing prices of groceries in my area, I can usually get a month’s worth of fresh fruits and vegetables for cheaper.
Destini Moody, RD, CSSD, LD, echoed this sentiment. “I don’t like any daily supplement that costs $2 or more per serving. It’s just too steep to justify for people who can just as easily buy fresh, healthy food,” she said.
Grüns offers recurring subscriptions that bring the cost down to around $2.11 per serving. The lower price is appealing but is still higher than many multivitamins and greens powders. For reference, Transparent Labs Prebiotic Greens cost $1.53 per serving, and Amazing Grass Greens Energy Blend is just $1.33 per serving.
Formulation
Grüns contain 60 vitamins, minerals, adaptogens, antioxidants, super mushrooms, and prebiotics. These ingredients are intended to support gut health, immunity, brain health, cognitive function, and more.
“There’s a lot to be said about grüns gummies, as they have a lot of benefits that similar products lack. They have enough micronutrients to rival a good multivitamin, along with nearly 10 grams of adaptogens, greens, fruits, and prebiotics. That’s a lot!” said Destini Moody, RD, CSSD, LD.
RELATED: Super Greens Powder Benefits
Each snack pack also has 6 grams of fiber, which impressed Destini. “That’s about the amount of fiber you could get from eating two oranges or three cups of broccoli,” she commented.
“I also really like that grüns are vegan-friendly. Most gummies are made with gelatin, which is derived from crustaceans and thus isn’t suitable for those who don’t eat animal products. Instead, grüns gummies are made from pectin, which is a fiber derived from fruit,” Destini added.
![The supplement facts label on a bag of grüns gummies](https://www.garagegymreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/supplement-facts-on-bag-of-gruns-gummies.jpg)
While this all sounds good, the formulation didn’t quite earn a perfect score. Instead, I rated it a 4 out of 5. There are two versions available: a low-sugar one and a sugar-free one. The low-sugar version still contains 8 grams of added sugar, which can be a lot for people who prefer to limit their sugar intake.
Additionally, the antioxidants, adaptogens, prebiotics, and super mushrooms are hidden in a proprietary blend called a Core Nutrients Blend. When companies hide ingredients behind proprietary blends, it’s hard to determine if you’re getting research-backed dosages of each.
Taste and Texture
Grüns describes their greens gummies as having a berry-like, sweet green flavor. I definitely noticed the berry taste, and while there was a hint of earthiness, they didn’t taste overwhelmingly like grass. They weren’t cloying but still helped satisfy my cravings when I wanted something sweet after a meal.

RELATED: How To Make Greens Powders Taste Better
The texture reminded me of the fruit snacks I used to eat when I was a kid. The gummies were easy to chew and swallow and didn’t get stuck in my teeth. However, they had a coating that felt like a soft, invisible powder. I found it weird at first but got used to it after eating a couple of packs.
All in all, I rated grüns 4.5 out of 5 stars for taste and texture.
Side Effects
Everyone reacts to supplements differently, but some of the most common side effects of greens supplements include bloating, cramping, constipation, or loose bowel movements. I had some minor bloating after taking grüns but didn’t experience any other negative side effects, so I rated them 5 out of 5 in this category.

Third-Party Testing
Grüns are manufactured in NSF-, GMP-, and FDA-certified facilities in the USA and tested for heavy metals and contaminants. This is good to know, especially since many greens powders (and supplements in general) aren’t tested at all. However, I wish there was more transparency about who does the testing, so I gave grüns a 4-out-of-5-star rating here.
grüns vs AG1
AG1
Athletic Greens AG1

Product Highlights
- Contains 75 minerals and nutrients in one serving
- Available in travel pouches and bundle and save options
- Said to support gut health with prebiotics, probiotics, and naturally occuring enzymes
- Supports immunity with key ingredients like vitamin C and mushrooms
- Magnesium is added to boost energy
- May aid in recovery as it features superfood complex with adaptogens and antioxidants
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Backed by notable health experts
- Transparent and detailed ingredient list
- 75 vitamins and minerals
Cons
- Expensive
- Some reviewers dislike the taste
Bottom Line
If you’re looking for a greens powder with a unique blend of minerals, nutrients, power greens, enzymes, and probiotics and you're willing to spend some money, Athletic Greens may be a good choice for you.
The most obvious difference between AG1 (formerly Athletic Greens) and grüns is that AG1 is a powder while grüns come in gummy form. AG1 is available in individual travel-sized packets, but grüns are still more travel-friendly since you don’t have to mix anything into a beverage.
Having tried both, I prefer the taste of grüns over AG1. I didn’t dislike the flavor of AG1 on its own and even enjoyed the hints of pineapple in it, but the grassy, earthy flavor was more apparent in AG1 than in grüns.
Neither supplement is cheap, but grüns are more affordable at about $2.82 per serving. AG1 costs around $3.30 per serving. A major contributing factor to the higher cost is AG1’s inclusion of 75 nutrients. Grüns only have 60. Both supplements offer subscriptions that bring down the cost, but grüns are still cheaper.

Customer Experience
Grüns has a 30-day return policy and allows you to return unopened snack packs for a full refund, no questions asked. You’ll just have to submit a form on the company’s website to start the return process.
If you sign up for a recurring subscription—which I did when I ordered mine—you can cancel at any time. I’ve seen complaints online about people struggling to cancel their subscriptions, but I was able to cancel mine easily. I feel confident giving grüns a 5 out of 5 for customer service.
Ordering grüns
You can order grüns directly from the company’s website. Shipping is quick—my package shipped the day after I placed my order, and I received it two days later. You get free shipping if you sign up for recurring deliveries, but you’ll have to pay around $6 for shipping if you make a one-time purchase. If you don’t want to pay the full price all at once, you can use Shop Pay at checkout to break the payments into four installments.
Grüns are also on Amazon. I’ve seen them for as low as $66 per bag for one-time purchases, which is about $13 cheaper than buying from the brand’s website, and two-day shipping is available for Prime members. However, signing up for a recurring subscription costs around $59, the same as a subscription on grüns’ website.
Customer Reviews
Grüns has an average rating of 4.9 stars on their website but doesn’t disclose the number of total reviews. The majority of the reviews are positive, with customers saying they enjoy the taste and convenience. Buyers also appreciate the comprehensive formula.
On Amazon, grüns daily has an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars based on 207 reviews. Most Amazon buyers also left positive remarks on the convenience and taste, and some customers say grüns offers good value for money. However, a few Amazon customers didn’t like the taste.
Final Verdict of Our grüns Review
While grüns daily gummies taste great and boast a comprehensive ingredients list, they aren’t intended to replace fresh fruits, vegetables, and other whole food sources in your diet. Instead, they should be used as a supplement to help fill nutritional gaps. They could be good for you if you:
- Have the budget to spend over $2 per snack pack
- Prefer the convenience of eating gummies
- Want something that tastes better than your typical greens powder
