(Last Updated on November 9, 2022)

Over the last decade we have been bombarded with the health benefits of juicing.

It seems wherever you turn you find something to do with juicing. You can find healthy green drinks at your local supermarket, and even at Starbucks. Many celebrities have promoted and endorsed juicing.

There are books, blogs and magazine articles on the subject. There are recipes galore. You can buy all sorts of equipment to help you extract the juice from fruit and vegetables.

The only problem is, do we have the time to shop for all the ingredients we need? And if we do can we always find them all?

There are many companies producing green juices on the market now. These products are aimed at making our life easier. One such company is Organifi. They claim we can get all our healthy superfoods in one drink.

No blending, no shopping, no juicing.

Sounds good. But I wonder, are these drinks as good for us as the real thing?

Let’s delve in and see.

What Is Organifi Green Juice?

The creator of this product is Drew Canole.

He is a self educated health and fitness expert who has written several books. He also founded Fitlife.TV, a website:

Committed to sharing educational, inspirational, and entertaining videos and articles about health, fitness, healing, and longevity.

The product is a powder that is mixed with water or into a smoothie to create a green juice drink.

There is a statement on the container that it has been voted the number one best tasting greens powder. But underneath it says “By Drews Mom”.

Let’s look at what is in it?

Organifi Ingredients

There are eleven main ingredients in this product. It is broken down into two blends. A Superfood Blend and an Alkaline Greens Blend.

 

The Superfoods Blend contains:

It is used as a tonic with wide ranging health benefits.It can help with brain function and memory.

How Does Organifi Green Juice Work?

This green powder claims to work by giving your body a nutritional boost. This is  obtained the many Superfoods in it.

The company claims that it will:

  • Give mental clarity
  • Support health
  • Detoxify
  • Support healthy skin, hair and nails
  • Support immune function
  • Reduce stress
  • Save time

There may be some clinical support for the claims in some of the individual ingredients. There is however no actual clinical trial of the efficacy of this product as a whole.

It is also worth mentioning the absence of probiotics and enzymes in this product. It seems that a lot of other green powder drinks contain these ingredients. They may help with digestion – according to The Home Dweller.

This powder may save you time on shopping, blending or juicing your own green drink.

Organifi Side Effects

There are no listed side effects for this product. As with any change in diet, you may experience upset stomach, nausea, or a change in bowel movements.

There is a warning on the container that it may include a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or reproductive harm.

Many do comment about the high price but seem happy to pay it.

Gemma writes:

To start, I don’t write reviews. But this Green Juice is the best I’ve ever had and I’ve tried nearly everyone on the market. I’m amazed at how good it tastes and how easily it mixes with water. I get an energy boost from drinking it and my body craves it. So, I pay the high prices because the product is amazing.

Then we come to the not so happy customers.

There are many comments about the warning on the container in respect  the chemicals that may cause cancer. Some people are also not happy with the taste.

Michelle Liebenow writes:

Horrible taste! We use a lot of different supplements & shakes, juicing etc & this is very gritty, strong smell & terrible taste. Not to mention the dust from it makes a mess of like old green dried play doh when trying to wipe off counter etc. It was a waste, we threw it all away after several attempts to make it with different liquids to make it tolerable.

There are some people who also state that the container does not have 30 servings as advertised.

M.R reports:

I bought this product for $67 shipped. I was curious as to the health claims despite reading several reviews that said the amount of servings listed on the container wasn’t accurate. The bottle states it should contain 30 servings; it includes a little scoop so you can measure out an exact amount of powder each time. My Organifi contained 23 servings. Not even close to what was advertised.

Organifi Green Juice: Packages, Prices & Where To Buy

You can buy this product direct from the company website.

Each canister contains 9.5 oz of product which they state is 30 servings.

The cost direct from the company is:

  • 1 Canister / Month: $57.95 (+ $7.95 Shipping & Handling).
  • 3 Canisters / Month or One Time Purchase: $149.95 (+ $12.95 Shipping & Handling).
  • 5 Canisters / Month or One Time Purchase: $249.95 (+ $14.95 Shipping & Handling).

Worth to mention, to each order you can add:

  • 1 Biotic Balance Probiotic (optional): $47.95
  • 1 Organifi Glass Shaker Bottle (optional): $27.95

 

Refunds and Returns Policy

This where I got a bit confused.

There is a 30 day 100% no risk money back guarantee on the website.

  • You simply contact the Customer Service Department. They will give you a confirmation number.
  • You then return you empty canister and invoice. You are responsible for the shipping and handling costs.
  • They then state they must receive the canister within 60 days from the date of original purchase for the refund to be valid.

What is confusing is that when you go to purchase it states you have a 60 day money back guarantee. There are no further details of this guarantee.

If it were me, to be on the safe side I would assume a 30 day guarantee. They do state on their returns policy that will not refund outside the guarantee period.

Organifi Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Individual ingredients have some scientific back up that they may benefit health.
  • Organic ingredients.
  • Vegan friendly.
  • Many positive customer comments.
  • Money back guarantee.

Cons

  • No clinical trial on the product as a whole.
  • High price point.
  • Autoship scheme on order of one canister.
  • Warnings there may be harmful chemicals in the product.

Organifi Green Juice Review: Final Words

This product may save you some time when it comes to shopping and juicing your own ingredients. The price point is high. But it may save you money on sourcing all the individual greens and other ingredients.

There is some scientific evidence in respect of the health benefits of some of the ingredients.

I would be a little concerned that something purporting to be healthy has a warning about possible carcinogens. This warning however is on many products sold throughout the US. This includes electrical wires, jewelry, padlocks, dishes, flashlights, and pesticides. They may contain lead or other metals harmful to health.

If you are looking for a way to get healthy greens into your diet, and you have money to spare, this green powder may be for you. Alternately, fresh fruit and veg in a healthy diet may give you the same benefits.

15 Replies to Organifi Green Juice Review: Does It Really Work?

    1. I was wondering if there are any kind of fish products in this . I’m deathly allergic to any kind of fish products

    1. Did you know that 1oz of wheatgrass is equivalent to 32pounces of green vegetables? It’s worth it to try. And the Claims it contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer that’s on EVERY product you order now days. Plastic the container is made out of has those chemicals not the powder itself. I see that on almost every label I read today

      1. Perhaps an outfit so concerned with health could pend the extra 25 cents getting an organic container.

  1. Was sold on organifi until I saw the comment about cancer. Are they referring to the packaging or to the ingredients? Until I know more, it’s not worth the risk.

  2. I would rather just eat nuts seeds fruits vegetables, and herbs. You can buy a lot of these healthy foods for less than $57.00+/- a month. If you buy Organic, you won’t get the added chemicals either.

  3. Thank you for the review. I would not buy this product. I’m buying a Product for its health benefits why would I take a risk on ingesting a chemical that’s known to cause cancer. In addition if you are going to make baked clams and charge the big box you need to back it up a solid research

  4. No, I would not buy a product I am unfamiliar with that has a negative warning label. I get enough of that from the products I use already.

  5. People have you been to California, that label is on everything, even when you walk into the grocery stores it’s in the doors, it could be the label on the container…they legally have to put it on everything it seems like in Cali, I would not let that persuade you from not buying the product.

  6. Every time I read about a vitamin, mineral or meal replacement drink the FDA has not cleared it is another common statement. Nothing we put in our bodies is the holy juice/ meal. All one can do is get as close to organic as we can and pray we are not being lied to I just cant imagine what food is going to be like years from now

  7. I wish I read this review before purchasing.
    No where in the advertising does it mention the cancer risk.
    I purchased through their website. I was charged twice. When I read the warning it was not ok with me. I called, was put in a queue to be called back by the next available representative…. still waiting. Emailed and sent a Facebook message asking for a refund and return instructions. The response to both were to explain away the warning telling me, “not to worry”. I did not receive a refund or return instructions.

  8. I took the red juice. At first it helped so much. Now it’s been about a week and a half and I am feeling like I am detoxing. I had so much energy at first! It was so helpful! Now I feel sick. In was so excited how good it made me feel. I don’t know what happened. I think it is detoxing me to quickly!
