The 10 Most Essential Supplements: Evan Centopani(blog)

[nothuman]

I can't speak for the other formulas, but Phytoform is one of the best tasting supplements I've ever had....and being that I really hate veggies, it's a staple for me now. In fact, I am drinking some right now as I type this.

Same. I couldn't imagine not including a scoop with my blended veggies and fruits. I order Phytoform in bulk

Green Vibrance is probably one the best crazy expensive. Garden of Life brand has several different formulas that are good too. Their on expensive too, but lil cheaper.

I use Garden of Life select food (raw organic ) : Green super food. It tastes like shit so I often manage to avoid getting it in daily. Lol. Seems like a good formula though.

Never tried phytoform but I feel like these things should all taste bad if they have enough greens in them. Too me, it tasting great isn't necessarily an indicator the formula is legit.

No one said that. But they use monkfruit extract for flavor. Who else is doing that? It was obviously a goal of theirs to make it taste good. Dismissing it because we say it tastes good is silly.

Well, you inspired me to actually look up PhytoForm's ingredient profile and its worse than I thought. Buying a processed powder fruit based product is silly. Most of the benefits of fruit come from actually eating fresh fruit itself, fiber, etc. Plus its easy to consume and enjoyable to do so. I can eat fruit and enjoy doing it. Eating "Greens" that taste bad is a much different story. Enter the "Greens" product category.

Comparing the two products, its a landslide. No wonder PhytoForm tastes good. Its barely got any "greens" in it. I wouldnt even call this a "Greens" product TBH. You can't argue with the simple ingredient comparison.

I agree on the Green Super Food. It's a really rough tasting product.

I don't even mix it anymore. I just slam the scoop with a mouthful of water and get it over.

 

[meanman]

This has opened my eyes to alot of needs I need to research for my body, much thanks

 

[WTXmuscle88]

I use Phytoform from Prime Nutrition once or twice a day. I absolutely love it. If I were to stray, I'd probably just take Spirulina. I would maybe try Green Vibrance or something like that...but more likely would just juice my own veggies and have 1-2 juices a day.

Thank you Knight! Very helpful sir I appreciate it!!

I fail to see what is unattractive about Phytoform...
The fact it has broccoli, kept, chlorella and PQQ all makes me very happy. Several of the rest are also pretty great.

I use green vibrance. I have problems digesting most vegetables so this is how I get my greens. It doesn't taste bad honestly. I mix it with with vanilla unsweetened almond milk and a little stevia.

 

[NY Muscle]

Here's my arsenal but yeah the more I use Phytoform the more I realize I'm just using it to make the rest of the stuff taste good cause the profile is on the week side IMHO.

 

[ironceltic12]

I love Phytoform, it tastes awesome. I have tried Truenutritions greens formula and honestly I used it a couple times and chucked it lol. I could not stand the taste of that stuff one bit. I do wish the phytoform had a better formula like the other brands that taste terrible do.

ya its good! ive used it just on expensive side

 

[Knight9]

well i have mitochondria issues so without it i feel difference. I take about 500mg twice day.

May I ask you to explain what "mitochondria issues" in your case means? What exactly is happening and how you narrowed it down/identified it?

 

[Knight9]

Two things (about Evan's list)

50 BILLION CFU daily in probiotics. Shit! I am just getting on the probiotic train and my once daily cap of Jarrow Dophilus is 5 billion....

And on the fatty acids...I question whether Evening Primrose Oil is even important. I used to take it back in 08 and 09 during my keto diets..but not since.

I won't reveal details of Shelby's basic diet plan when you hire him, but I do know the only real supplements he recommended on his basic/short term length diet/coaching plan (at that time) was GTE, fish oil and evening primrose oil.

I remember being surprised at the evening primrose and wondering about the merits of its use. Either people swear by it or its not even on their radar and they don't consider it worth messing with. I'm unsure if it's validated.

 

[Jasons1985]

I Have always been big on green virbance..although its a bit expensive i think its the best out there. Just bought two bottles of pytoform to try out. Taste is great like everyone says and although the profile isnt a kitchen sink approach its still giving you some awesome stuff.

 

[Jasons1985]

FYI...i also add two tablespoons of hydrolyzed beef collagen to my phytoform drink. I find its a perfect thing to mix it in.

Damn NY that has to be at least $100 a month in greens supplements lol. Almost the cost of monthly generic GH
