​@David Wishengrad Exorcist, 1st class What the hell are you talking about?

@David Wishengrad Exorcist, 1st class Ah of course - well when you put it that way...

Indeed. To convince oneself, that *such* a huge investment was in some way justified, one would make oneself believe in anything, in order not to feel crap for throwing away so much money. 🙂

Thank you for this, I was durn close to trying this multiple times! When companies leave key things out while overloading others, I have to avoid my multivitamin or something for the day so as to not overdo certain vitamins. Missing D would be insane to get athletic greens in. I can go a bit too high in my Bs or D for the day but I won't superload any of the fat solubles like E. They sabotaged their own product.

TL:DR- the product is only good, not perfect and its way overpriced. I'm not a vegan and have no interest ever in life turning to veganism, but I was looking for a product to replace having to eat a lot of greens. Is there any products you actually approve of to fill such a niche? And if not, what's the best option of the "not good enough" products? I literally don't have the willpower to eat much greens, the textures and flavors I find vile.

i know right? this is one of the reasons i love her. i actually think she can be trusted

Well I trust Joe Rogan and Andrew Huberman over this woke, left wing, anti 2nd amendment vegan

Investigating would have included using it herself! And if she’s so smart why doesn’t she make her own organic compound that’s better? If she knows so much she would tell you where and how to source all of the organic material that you would need to create this compound. This woman is full of crap.

​@@lnaylerjust eat your spinach you absolute baby

@Link Link thank you for your correction

@Link Link you know what she means theres no need to be nitpicky

@@lynntheplantmuncher9972 Yes. And, it's because of that fundamentalist attitude that some people turn away from veganism rather than towards it.

@@sectionalsofa no just bc if she leaves it then vegans will be shit on

Off topic, but You don’t look Egyptian

Just about ninety-something-percent of the times...

Ag1, Raid shadow legends, Raecon earbuds, VPN networks,.... Wouldn't download them for the sole fact every single KZfaqr promotes them but nobody in real life seems to have/use them..

I absolutely came to that conclusion last week

@@kenzashenna Add to that "skillshare", "curiosity", "squarespace", "audibles" and, of course, "4sigmatic" LOL

@@NomadicNaturePhotographer I'm curious, what's wrong with skillshare?

That's more than half what I spend on groceries in a month lol...

​@raspberry May I ask how? I'm genuinely interested. Do u buy bulk ?

@@Doe3Love8 I do try to buy bulk for things like oats, rice and beans but that's not always possible or ideal (sometimes you get an inferior product, and also you need some room to store it). Even when I do I can only save about $50-150/yr doing that so it's not a huge savings but it does add up. It saves on waste though which I like; I got a 50lb bag of oats that came in a giant paper bag -- great!! Throw that right on the compost when it's finished. I think the oats are pretty low quality though so not sure I'll do it again with that brand. If you want to save money, the produce section is your friend. I go to the grocery store about once a month and I get everything I need for that month, lots of fruit and veg and misc things like seeds for granola or soy milk or tortillas or pasta; whatever I need. Now the trick is in keeping your fruit and veg fresh for that 3-4 weeks. Most people know if you cut the dried-out root-ends of veg and put it in a water pot it will last a lot longer. Fewer people know that if you do that same thing but in your fridge you can often get 3-4 weeks out of it if you use the wilting parts of it continually throughout that time. I had to rearrange the shelves of my fridge to make enough headroom to do this. My original layout was more conducive to lots of little packaged and canned foods. Lastly, I don't go to back to the store until my fridge is completely empty; like I-just-bought-a-new-fridge empty. This cuts down on food waste a lot and as a side benefit you never end up with some random piece of rotting food in a corner stinking up your fridge! This method of shopping relies on knowing how to cook. The most expensive things you can buy are frozen/pre-prepared meals and bottled/canned stuff. You pay a premium for that luxury (and also a garbage collector!). I like to have a salad and a pot of beans in the fridge continually to use as base ingredients for other dishes. With those I can make tacos, burritos, just salad, and beans to throw in veggie rice/pasta. Veggie rice and veggie pasta are my staples. Just cook the rice/pasta in the final pan and when it's done put in whatever chopped veggies you feel like to steam with the lid on for 2-4 min. After that add in any herbs or spices or spice-blends/pastes (I found an indian one I really like that makes anything taste like curry). The key is to cook the veggies as little as possible. They should retain their bright color and firmness. There are so many flavors and combinations possible with this. At the 3 or 4 week mark a lot of times I'll end up having to use a lot of cabbage and onions for my veggies lol. But you keep learning how much of things to buy the more you do it. It's nothing fancy but it tastes good and is satisfying. I certainly still have many things to learn and improve on in the kitchen! I kind of rambled here but maybe something in all that will help spark some ideas of your own. Best of luck!

@raspberry OK I just finished reading it ! And I SS and I handwrote notes lol Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! That's so smart abt having the fridge be empty! Thanks for all the tips !

@@Doe3Love8 Np. Don't try to change everything at once though. You risk overwhelming yourself and getting discouraged that way. Pick one thing at a time that most interests you and get it under your belt before moving on. Relaxed consistency produces better outcomes. And also if you come up with some crazy idea you think might work, try it! I think life's more fun to live that way. Take care my man!

I got the ad at the end 😂

Yeah, and she did such a great job, we'll prob remember her everytime we see their ad in future , 🤣.

I got that ad too! Not a coincidence.

I got it hahaha

I got the ad right at the beginning. I had to laugh. I thought it was so funny. And even so, I almost thought I clicked the wrong link, which might be the intention of the ad. Wouldn't surprise me. You really know you're being manipulated when you get a promotion for a product that's being given a thumbs down review. I consider that a big FU from the manufacturer to the reviewer and her audience.

she should have done both lol promote it very sarcastically. woulda been pretty funny..

Dear Swayze. It is not too late. Even after all of these years and spreading so much misinformation about nutrition. You can still save yourself. Please read your own book. It is not the worst thing, that you have ever done. It is the best thing, that you have ever done. I really cannot understand you. It is not worth the money. If you go back to proper nutrition, which is a 100% organic raw vegan diet, then I will allow you to "juice" my "cucumber."

How big exactly are the udders of Swayze? Nobody could answer this question so far.

Shillshare 😏

What’s the problem with Skillshare? Did I miss out on something?😂😅

@@alicezanini6123 I recently watched a video about their concept. Just read reviews of their customer service - it‘s bad 😅 30 day free trial, but if you don‘t cancel after 14(!!!) days: voilà, here‘s your 12 month subscription.

@@alicezanini6123 yo skillshare is legit tho

I can't take it becuase of the pea protein in it so I can't take it either. I would turn bright red.

Lawsuit lawsuit lawsuit lawsuit

I break into hives after drinking it, I don't know to what vitamin or other components in AG1 I am allergic to :D

True.

Like the first paragraph. But, why eat grass ??? I suggest you try chopping up a cabbage and putting that into a blender with some water - far better.

Same!

My only problem with deva is that some of the ingredients are in huge dosage

@@veronicasigchoespinoza3202 Oh, I should double check on that in case any are harmful. Are they higher doses because it's geared toward vegans?

@@alohaXamanda I mean you could always not take it as often. I used to take it but when I developed photosensitivity they told me I could be taking too much B6 and then I saw that deva has 750% of the daily value and that could *potentially* be the cause. I like that it is cheap, but some of the doses are just crazy high, so if you take it I wouldn’t take it as often.

@@veronicasigchoespinoza3202 This is really great advice, thank you for pointing this out! I have photosensitivity in general and I never go to the doctor to check my levels (anxiety) so I would not have thought about this

Idk makes me feel good, great placebo ig

SAME! I clicked on this video, and sure enough, the first ad was Athletic greens 😂

7th

this is just to say that all claims aside, this stuff actually is tasty. gotta give it that at least lol!

Haha that’s hilarious. You’ve got a gold mine in your fridge. I don’t have a lot of money and was super mindful of when I took it to to take full advantage, savouring every scoop. Amassing 4 months is amazing to me !! 😂

Must have cost him a fortune. You need to put it on the insurance haha!

@@teainortakoy the amount of athletic greens currently in my apartment rivals any asset I own!

@@evedotcom he remembers to eat a gummy multivitamin daily but the athletic greens is completely untouched. I’m on a student budget so it’s been a real treat to enjoy his stash of AG1!

There’s a lot that Dr. Dray promotes that harm her credibility.

​@@sarahrosen4985 Like what?

Yes, this bothers me about her too. But what should we expect? She is a big proponent of consumerism in general, via her frequent 'shopping in national chain stores' videos.

@@heidih3048 I wouldn't mind that she takes us along to show us cheaper options. I don't live in the US so those could help me find products I don't have available locally but it seems like the US free time sport of shopping for the sake of shopping because you lead an empty substanceless life and have nothing else.

@@sarahrosen4985 I agree, and I'm from the US.

I think they’re promoting the additional vitamin D supplement that AG1 sells that you get a year supply of with the “influencer offer”. AG1 the powder doesn’t contain vitamin D.

Yeah I like it to and I save on buying other supplements. It has a good taste.

I wondered if there’s anything special about their product. I was surprised not more of the ingredients were organic. What’s the thing about their product that sells people on it?

@@tnijoo5109 it dissolves easily, never clumpy. Tastes kinda like pineapple with the enzymes in it.

Placebo

what was the taste like?

@TheSparkleina Both were fine (the AG greens, and the cheaper one I found). They both have powdered apple in it which gives it a pleasant enough flavour.

Agreed. The issue with telling people to “just eat your greens” is a bit frustrating considering most people seek these products since getting all nutrients from greens isn’t realistic.

What was the cheaper alternative?

What is the one you got in Australia I’m in perth

Same! At first I thought it was just the start of the video, lol.

that's not how vitamins work btw

Did ur body build a dependence on it?

2 yrs has it worked better for u than a supplement or green powder? I always have some form of green powder during the winter because I don't want a salad and hate cooked kale and spinach 😖

@@forever_seeking it’s honestly difficult to know how well supplements are working. But recent blood tests show all my levels are perfect. My hair, skin, and nails are great, too. In fact, I struggle to keep my nails short. They are so hard, shiny and long. Take that info and do what you will ☺️
