Choosing the Right Proper Superfood Powder for Your Needs

proper health superfood powders

The best supplements use clinically-backed actives to provide real, tangible benefits. But even the most advanced formulas in the world will do nothing for you if you don’t take them consistently.

That’s why we set out to create nutrient-dense superfood powders that are both efficacious and delicious. Being easy to use and easy to drink were table stakes, too. Beyond that, we asked ourselves: Is this something we’d enjoy looking at on our kitchen counters? That will bring us joy when we take a swig from our favorite reusable water bottle? That could replace whatever beverage we consider our daily treat?

Our product development team created five targeted superfood powders that check every one of those boxes while they support overall wellness—and address different health goals. Each formula has distinct benefits, but they all share a few important foundational ingredients to support gut health (and more):

  • Broad-spectrum vitamins: Vitamins A, B, C, and K—along with B vitamins—provide essential nutrients needed for energy, cellular function support, and brain health.
  • Fiber blend: This three-pronged approach to prebiotics is formulated to enhance beneficial gut flora.
  • Probiotics: We included 1 billion CFU of Bacillus coagulans, a very well-studied strain.
  • Digestive enzyme blend: Enhances the breakdown of difficult nutrients.

You’ll want to choose the superfood powder that works best for you based on which targeted benefits meet your needs. Here’s what’s different about each of them:
