8Greens Tablet

jjb — Sat, 30 Dec 2017 15:17:49 GMT

Has anyone tried this? Does it really work and is it safe? I also was wondering if you would still get the benefit if you divide the tablet in half and take only half daily and get 120 supply instead?

I wouldn’t try it. I think it looks disgusting. I would rather eat a plate of veggies over these things. I’m not fond of drinking green juices. They just make me gag.

DD who is sort of a health nut, tried these tablets a while back. She hated the taste, and offered them to me. I tried one, and the taste was vile. I returned them for her. Just could not drink, even if they were good for me. I am sure that for some the tsste wasn't that bad. We're all different.

I’m really bad about getting enough greens in my diet so didn’t know if this would help. I don’t think you need 15 cups of broccoli or 6 oranges a day so was wondering if breaking the tablet in half would give what you need in a day and save some money?

I agree...if it doesn’t taste good what is the point!

Their site says manufactured in the USA, but where are the ingredients sourced?

I wouldn't touch it.

“...what you need in a day”

Yes, vitamins/minerals are important, but what we need in a day is much, much, much more than that. Whenever you separate out only certain vitamins/minerals of a food & concentrate it, your body doesn’t know how to react w/ an onslaught of those vit/minerals....in fact, it can cause more damage & be highly inflammatory.

The fiber, fats & calories alone is worth eating fruit/veg in whole form....which you don’t get in a supplement. And the most important part, the chewing, converts nitrate oxide into nitrite with is invaluable to your body’s endothelium.

There’s SO much more than popping a daily supplement. Again, paying a lot of money for those concentrated amounts could be causing more damage than you thought.

Yes, I take 8 Greens - on my second order. Taste? Glass of cold water and drink with a straw. Yes, you can split one in half - better to take half than none at all. I take 2 or 3 per week. Great if you can't eat lots of greens and/or oranges or other fruits.

Can only share my experience....purchased these about 6weeks ago...they really sold me on the healthy benefits PLUS increase in energy. Well I didn't get any energy increase....and what's worse is that if caused me to have a terrible rosacea break out flare up. My skin had been doing so good...no bumps...calm...and now I am still struggling to get things back under control. I should have known better....it contains barley...and many many yrs ago I was doing a health diet which involved barley plus other things to make you more alkaline ph....anyway I broke out so bad.

As far as taste it isn't really bad....heck I have drank fish oil for health benefit...now that's difficult to do IMO. I would just use cold water....add some orange flavor zero sports drink (1/8 cup) and it tasted fine. Drinking it is the easy part....the cost is alot but I was willing to give it a go...was planning on doing it for 6mo's as I wanted to be fair and see if my energy would increase.

The horrible bumps and pus filled ones in areas I never get them...my eyes and so on just couldn't tolerate it. After 2weeks I had to stop and return them.

I only used 1 tablet per day....says people can use up to 3 a day! As for bowel movement increasing? I saw zero change....I have IBS-D so that would be a concern for me for sure...but no change.

I've never tried them but most of the other green-type drinks that I have tried are not exactly what I would call delicious.

I brought this and the taste is like a lemon lime flavor,not bad at all by itself. IF you don't like the taste by itself,put it in a smoothie as your liquid , banana and strwberries, IT IS DELICIOUS!

I love the 8Greens tablets. I found that they are even better after the table has dissolved and you put an ice cube into the water. Also, no diarrhea for me at all. I will continue to take them and stay on auto-delivery.

Consult Beaute on Evine has a very similar product offering, you can also check that one out.

This is today's special value and I was A L M O S T going to buy it but had the sense to read the ingredients. I was so disappointed to see a "healthy" product with a chemical sweetner (sorbitol) in it. Why? They have stevia in it which is natural. I would assume that to make it even sweeter they decided to add a different type of sweetner. But there are countless people who do not know that their stomach problems can be traced back to the chemical sweetner that is so many products. So glad I read the label!

SidsMom: Absolutely. Enough said.

Well said, @sidsmom

It seems as if these tablets are basically fizzy vitamins.

I find their marketing to be misleading (all the vitamin C from 6 oranges!). Well, where's all the fiber and pectin and minerals and other benefits of eating a whole orange?

@ROMARY @GingerPeach

Major double over giggle....!

I saw this, read your responses & thought....

’when did I talk about 8Greens Tablets?’

Then I noticed it was a 2017 thread.

But I would say the exact.same.thing today.

Common sense never goes out of style. 🙃🌼

I would not touch these with a 10 foot pole. I can't imaging people thinking that taking these tablets is a substitute for whole fruits and vegetables. Overpriced, I be the profit margin in these is quite high.

Hi @sidsmom

I didn't even notice the date. I wonder why QVC is selling this kind of stuff? I mean, other than profit. And to feature it as a TSV? I would have hoped someone would know better.
