MyProtein Super Greens Review — Is It Worth It?

MyProtein Super Greens is the budget entry point to greens supplementation. The formula is considerably simpler than AG1 or Huel, but at this price it functions adequately as a basic daily greens top-up rather than a comprehensive nutritional foundation.

What Is It?

Super Greens Powder is MyProtein's everyday greens supplement — a blend of green food concentrates in powder form. It's positioned as an easy way to add greens to your daily routine, particularly useful for anyone who struggles to hit vegetable intake targets through diet alone.

Ingredients & Nutrition

Per 10g serving: a proprietary greens blend including spirulina, chlorella, wheatgrass, barley grass, pea powder, spinach, and broccoli. At 30 calories per serving. The product does not include added vitamins or minerals beyond what naturally occurs in the greens blend, and the proprietary blend means individual ingredient amounts are not disclosed.

The absence of added adaptogens, probiotics, or premium functional ingredients is the key limitation compared to Huel and AG1. This is a greens concentrate, not a comprehensive wellness supplement.

Taste & Mixability

The unflavoured version has a strong grassy taste that most people find challenging. The natural flavoured variants (Mixed Berry) are considerably more palatable and mask the greens taste effectively. Mixability is moderate — slight grittiness typical of chlorella-containing products. Consume immediately after mixing.

Effectiveness

For basic micronutrient top-up from greens sources, it functions adequately. The spirulina and chlorella provide protein, iron, B vitamins, and chlorophyll. Wheatgrass and barley grass contribute antioxidants and plant enzymes. The absence of standardised vitamin levels means you can't rely on it for specific micronutrient targets — it's genuinely a "greens supplement" in the literal sense.

Value for Money

At £17.99 for 300g (30 servings at 10g), you're paying approximately £0.60 per serving. That makes it 40% cheaper than Huel and one-quarter the cost of AG1. For a basic greens product without added vitamins, that's a fair price. During MyProtein sales, it can drop to around £10–12, making it very accessible.

Verdict

MyProtein Super Greens is best understood as a basic greens top-up at a low price, not a nutritional insurance policy. If your diet is already good and you just want a green food boost, this is fine. If you genuinely need to address micronutrient gaps or want adaptogen and probiotic support, the step up to Huel Daily Greens is worth the additional cost.
