At the start of 2024, I made it a goal of mine to improve my health. I quit drinking alcohol, focused on creating good habits, and learned how I could improve my gut health. That is when I came across AG1, a vitamin, mineral and probiotic supplement in the form of a green drink.
As a part of my morning routine, after I have filled my 2 liter water bottle with my required water for the day, I prepare my AG1 vitamin supplement drink. It is super simple. I use the bottle they include in their starter kit and add one scoop of the green powder to 12 oz.’s of water. I give it a shake and drink it while I wait for the kettle to boil. It is literally as easy as popping a traditional vitamin capsule and going about your morning.
What is AG1?
According to the website, “AG1 combines the power of multiple supplements like vitamins, probiotics, and whole food sourced nutrients into just one scoop, making it your simplest daily health habit”. Since I am not a doctor or a scientist, I can only attest to the simple part and that is 100% true. It has been easier for me to develop the habit of taking AG1 every morning than it ever was to remember my multivitamin.
What’s In It?
Well…lots of stuff I don’t pretend to understand fully. But they claim it replaces the need for multivitamin and pre and probiotic supplements – both of which I tell myself I have to remember to take but never do. I included an image of the full list of ingredients from their website below.
Why is it One of My Favorite Things?
Ok, now to the stuff I can actually get excited about. What I love about AG1:
Taste
First, it tastes pretty good. I love the pineapple-y taste. It does have a bit of a grit to it, as most “dissolve in water” things do. I find if you let it sit a minute or two before drinking more of the powder seems to dissolve. That is really the only thing holding it back from being perfect. But hey, it still beats eating spinach for breakfast.
Health Benefits
Second, I can honestly say, I have been feeling healthier since I started taking AG1. Now, whether that is entirely do to the extra vitamins or whether the fact I have made other lifestyle changes as well, who knows. Probably all the things. But you can’t discount that because I am getting more vitamins I have the energy and motivation to stick with my other healthy habits.
One little story that I believe is proof AG1 has helped my immune system happened this past February. Everyone in my house got sick with a nasty cold (including my husband). It was right before I was do to go on my wellness retreat. I was like “Great! I am going to be sick during my trip.” But, I never got sick. Not even a sniffle. The only thing I can imagine for the reason I didn’t get sick is my immune system was doing its job well. And I have to say that is because of the immune system support I was getting do to AG1.
Value
Lastly, the value. It is expensive at first glance ($79 USD per month supply). But, when you consider the cost of a multivitamin ($30-$45 a bottle) and a probiotic supplement ($30+), I think it is priced fairly. Plus you get the benefits of a green superfood drink and immune support for free basically. Since, I was only taking the vitamin and probiotic I count those other things as a bonus. It costs the same as what I was doing before but it has been an easier habit to make and it gets delivered right to my door.
Should You Take AG1?
That question is totally up to you. Because I am not a scientist, a doctor or a part of the AG1 team so I can’t say to whether it is right for anyone in particular. I do know I love it and my husband now takes it as well (but only occasionally). I believe I saw benefits from starting this habit just as anyone who was focusing on getting extra vitamins and minerals would.
