What about the Award winning Greens and Fruits supplement powder called Green Vibrance and Spectrum Vibrance?
This is exactly why I respect Rhonda, stating the facts.
She's right on this topic. But look how she pushes fish oil capsules? (which much research has debunked). So I suspect she may get payment from that industry.
what…. Show research on this
@@mikespector2 Well she doesn't really endorse a particular brand so how would she benefit from this?
@@mikespector2 research has not debunked it.
Well, when she says, "thats just what i think" it kind of sounds more like that's just what she thinks. I've taken Ag1 consecutively for about 3 months and warts on my fingers have nearly completely disappeared so i wouldn't say it's a total hogwash and with any type of supplement like these, you should never trump them over the real thing.
How to destruct AG1 marketing in 3 minutes. Good job :)
Anyone who is using it and doesn’t think it’s a multivitamin is mislead
@@rajt9034why do you say that?
2mins
Lmao!
@@frankg.39 I use ag1 daily as a multivitamin, but I never was under the impression I don’t need to eat fruits n vegetables because I’m taking it, not sure where that came from honestly
Rhoda can’t be bought 😋
Except by Big Suana. Totally joking. Love her.
Get me that discount code@@porkshank13
She’s the goat.
Love her
Put some ”n” and respect on that name.
@bfromthea7663right? Lol
Respect. This is the power of not taking any ads
Bruh she went on Huberman’s podcast and he hawks the stuff constantly
@@lionelgrisbane-ud87 Difference between going on someone that hawks it and promoting it herself.
Finally someone with the intellectual honesty to tell it how it is regarding AG1. It is so sad to see many in the community recommending it just for the sponsorship money, with no regards to the actual product, ingredients and their quantity.
half of the cost goes to affiliates.... such a scam
And yet she recommends a certain extremely over-priced brand I won't name that is not even third-party tested. This is just her taking down a competitor.
It's not a bad product, it's just extremely overpriced is what it is,
Sad that Andrew Huberman and Peter attia recommend AG1…. On top of it just being a multivitamin powder, they don’t mention how much of each ingredient is actually in it.
@@PapiG-gw7lono, it’s actually bad. Concentration is pretty unbalanced.
And this is why Rhonda will always have my respect! Zero shilling. Love it!!
she shilled fckng hard for the genetic injections
lost all respect for her
I love how I got an Ad for AG1 at the beginning of this video.
Me too 😂
Me too!
You have no idea how much respect and street cred you just earned from the masses by making this video. Your brand just went up in Stock price. You a G Rhonda.
I have been taking AG1 for months because Peter Attia. Andrew Huberman, Joe Rogan, Rangan Chatterjee, and many others promoted it. I read the label and kept questioning how this product and ingredients could possibly be so good. But i trusted them. However, lately i've wondered if been suckered and been a victim to marketing even by people with huge followings and credentials. But i've always appreciated Rhonda Patricks honest assessments, research, and evaluations and SO THANKFUL for sharing her opinions on AG1! Its about time someone spoke up regarding AG1 to help us on our journey to optimizing our health, and save us from spending on hard earned money too! Thank you Rhonda Patrick!
Yep, you should ask for your money back. It's extremely expensive. Can't believe the level of people they've managed to buy out through money. Even Tim Ferris. It's extremely sad to be lied to by the people you trust. F em.
No but you have to think. The package, bottles, cans, tastes, recipes, instructions, guides, tips etc etc. It's all because of the price.
The whole experience with ag1 is what you pay for. If you only want the supplements, buy something cheaper. I like their stuff and I understand why it cost the way it does.
I got suspicious when I realized everyone who is sponsored by it says "I've been taking it since before they sponsored me". They've clearly paid people to say that. And they must be paying good because they've even got some of the most trusted individuals on RUclips to say that. Huberman, Rogan, etc.
The only way people could be convinced to pay ridiculous amounts of money for vitamins that cost bugger all to make is getting rich well known people to say they take it.
@@alexanderwindh4830 I've never taken any supplement "for the experience". I doubt those millionaire busy people would take it for the experience either, on the contrary, they're the type of people who want their daily things done fast and easy. Even in skincare, they got Dr. Dray, who is famous for calling out expensive useless skincare products by teaching people to focus on the ingredients and not the fancy expensive bottles. Someone like Tim Ferris is too smart and productivity driven to think of supplements as an experience that are just wasting his time. Yet, they're both bought by them. Unbelievable and frustrating.
I can only imagine the high amount of money $$$ they pay for each sponsored video from these famous people. It's so depressing. WHO CAN WE REALLY TRUST?
Now they changed the name to AG1 to sound more techy or advanced. Probably Athletic Greens started to sound cheap, because it is. Isn't Dr. Longevity from Harvard, what's his name, also promoting this shit?
Getting an AG1 ad after this video was just *Chef's kiss*
You still have ads on RUclips?
Imagine not paying for premium in 2024
@@benwarnock imagine not using an browser adblocker for free
This is the type of take that gains you so much credibility, not bashing the product at all. but just cutting through the marketing hype and reminding people that it’s a drinkable multivitamin. fantastic Rhonda.
Maaan, i knew the hype of ag1 was overblown when i see every podcaster sponsoring it. Thank you Rhonda for keeping it real.
People, greens don't come in a pill, powder, or potion.
Greens goes come in a powder form.
Thank you for confirming my suspicion. I tried AG and I was shocked that for $100 they could not even afford to include a glass bottle. It's plastic!! This whole thing is supposed to be about health not marketing on steroids
I actually prefer it being plastic as I take it always with me when travelling, plastic is lighter and in a backpack or suitcase it won't break as easily, which is really important for me. But I understand the point being made, they could at least give the consumers a choice between glass and plastic, I don't think it would break the bank for them.
@@plavi222 the problem is this plastic is made from polycarbonate or something similar, they will often say things like BPA free, which makes people feel good. What they don't know is the BPA has been replaced with another chemical called BPS which is worse. What does this tell you? It tells you they care more about money and marketing than actually doing something good. Plastics in general are not good for food containers especially if reused over and over or allowed to be in the sun.
There are some exceptions that are relatively safe such as polypropylene, but that's not what this bottle is made of.
The fact it even came with a cup should've been enough of a red flag
Been hearing a lot about AG1 lately. This is the most realistic honest perspective I've heard. Thanks, Rhonda.
Omg, finally somebody will a true answer and not blowing smoke up your ase because they are sponsored. It’s ultra processed
whey protein is ultra processed. is whey protein bad?
@@benjaminralow1176yes
And that other over-promoted and expensive supplement / nutritional drink - Huel is also Ultra-ultra processed. My body picks it up - it leaves a long-lasting aftertaste and I feel like it takes drinking a lot of water and 3 or 4 hours to flush it out of my system. There is no substitute for good quality, natural whole food. Nature and the miracle of biology is better than any factory.
Rhonda is doing a lot of people a great service putting this info out! The fact that she could care less about an AG1 sponsorship speaks volume! Thank you Rhonda!
Let’s go Rhonda!!!! We love you!!! Thank you for being so honest 🙏🏼😊
Confirming what people who think, already knew. Thanks Doc, for a credible lifting of the veil blinding so many.🧐
I find the easiest way for me to get "greens" is to dump spinach and kale into my vitamix with protein and blueberries.
This is exactly what I do. Throw in some banana with spinach and you're good to go 💪🏼
But i think a banana with blueberries is out now also. Think i heard that from Dr Rhonda.
@@janarlenesogge1729confirmed. She addressed this.
@@Styleb4all She's good with the blueberries... banana's got too much sugar.
@@swn69I think it has to do with bananas having something in it that prevents absorption of certain nutrients. She discusses this in one of her podcasts or interviews.
this why i respect Rhonda so much, she has integrity and cuts through the bs. thank you.
Bahaha I love this
I mean I would’ve been on the greens too but wasn’t convinced. Her honesty just blasted their whole campaign I think. 😂
Good to see this! Am surprised she answered this question. I assumed (wrongly it seems) that all my faves were sponsored by this product and therefore vested in not calling it out! Nice one.
Finally, just thank you Rhonda, thanks for the honesty. Especially considering how much the brand is willing to pay people to promote it, which for anyone wondering is a sizeable amount. Respect for sure!
Absolutely love the honesty!
Thank you for your honest review.
Rhonda, thank you very much for your honesty on this. I’ve been a big fan of yours since I first heard your second appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast and I’m also a “ Found my Fitness “ member. I’ve learned a lot from you.
Simple answer: Yes.
These youtube creators make millions off this product.
Respect to Rhonda for the truth.
No they don't make millions.
Thank you Rhonda! I just watched to see your comment. It was what I was expecting.
This right here is why I’m a fan; unbridled honesty.
so much for that endorsement. thank you for doing that. many health "influencers" would rather get the payout and advertise each video for this crap than telling the truth.
Thankyou for being honest! So many health influencers/content creators are sponsored by them, its hard to get an unbiased view.
What you're looking for is - spirulina/chlorella, turmeric+black pepper, moringa.
Daily intake of those 4 is vastly superior to some premade blend that likely has a bunch of crap in it.
Your one of the few people I recommend to my friends and family. Really liked you on run/lift /shoot.
Why y'all work I'm climbing around in the Rockies getting ready for Sept elk bow hunt. If you every can retire, don't pass it up💪💪😎
Rhonda for the win. So incredibly important to have true and honest and educated people that clarify things.
Finally the right answer to this question. Appreciated.
I applaud you for speaking frankly despite your apparent friendship with Peter. I don't use it but hate it because of the incessant ads I am forced to watch on youtube.
Getting an AG1 ad before watching this video was the best!
Thank you Rhonda, always quality backed up info
Thank you for your honesty on this subject!
Total respect, Rhonda.
You are the GOAT for doing this.
Thank you sooo much Rhonda❤
Thank you for such an honest review!
Louder for the people in the back.
I am so tired of the internet nutrition health gurus shilling sponsored products or their own products.
I pay attention to Dr Patrick and Dr. Carvalho
My thoughts exactly. Respect for being unbiased.
Integrity is very rare. Thank you doc!
Usually we are here wondering what you WOULD recommend instead following your review.
Thank you for your honesty
Lots of respect for the unbiased opinion. Made me follow!
Thanks for your transparency
thanks for talking about AG1, as most people/influencers promoting it have just jumped on the band wagon. As with a lot of powdered 'superfoods', it contains a high level of lead (2,200+ ppb lead for an average daily serving). Although it might be within the 'legal' daily lead limit (there is NO safe level of lead in the human body), I would never take it for this reason alone. Plus, the last time I checked, very few of AG1 ingredients are organic. There are so many other powdered green brands out there that ARE 100% organic and less expensive - they just don't have the internet hype behind them.
It does not contain a high level of lead.
So much respect for Rhonda. I’ve learned a great deal from her.
Wow this is so refreshing to hear
exactly what i thought. thanks Doc for keepin it real
Thank you ❤ honest lady
I just subscribed because of your integrity.
Thank you I used it for a few monthes but it was $100 a month and no change
Thank you found my fitness ❤
Great assessment Rhonda.
This is it. Huge admiration for bringing the facts.
Thank you! 🙏 respect for her just went up
Finally someone that speaks against that rip-off. Also Tim Ferriss, Peter Attia, Huberman ... is how much they make of advertisiment that product that cost 100 $ per month
Great analysis.
I appreciate her so much
Excellent evaluation. AG1 also uses proprietary blends, which even by the most generous interpretations still yield significant underdosing. Ideally, you want a supplement that offers full disclosure labelling; i.e.: one that lists exact amounts of each ingredient therein per dose.
Appreciate this. Thank you
the one 'creator' i pay for. much love from Germany you are a godsend.
Rhonda you are amazing thank you just saved me a lot of money
Love the honesty.❤
Just got an AG1 ad… bought the bundle… time to watch the video now!
You're the goat Rhonda. Thanks.
And in connection with the topic, the Chronometer website/app can give you a very good idea of how much your nutritional bases get covered by real whole foods. I’ve noticed that by eating beef, greens, blueberries, dark chocolate, artichokes, macadamias, asparagus, olive oil, avocado, sauerkraut, cod liver oil and coconut on a daily basis, calcium seems to be the only nutrient coming up short.
Nice - great rec, thanks a ton!
Thank you Rhonda.
Thank you 💙💙
Hallelujah for you Rhonda
Straight talk. Appreciated.
Thank you Rhonda, i bought some and basically cut it up with Moringa and Spiralina, as it improves the taste of other green powders massively, I would say that sincs taking it it has helped my gut health and general digestion.
Major respect to this queen!!! AG1 is all marketing. Any scientist or nutritionist with a brain and integrity wouldn’t promote such an expensive product that does nothing more than a multivitamin does. Bravo Rhonda!
Great breakdown of the product, are you familiar with the original greens + or Barleans greens would be interested in seeing what you think of those from a nutritional stand point. Keep up the great information
I got an AG1 ad coming in
I agree with this. I use green powder as nothing more than a fortification for a daily green smoothie that I make. I get a nice quality cold pressed green juice, mix in the green powder, add spirulina powder, a splash of prune juice, a ginger shot, a banana, ice, and a touch of agave sweetener. I blend it all up and have a cup of this every day and it’s really helped my energy levels and digestion. When I had the green powder mixed with water alone-its effects were marginal for me.
I thought this before even watching her. Thank you
Thanks very much for the clarity. I'm glad I stuck to Green Vibrance.
The AG1 ad prior to the video was perfect
For me the number one reason for taking AG1 (beyond it being a good multivitamin alternative) is psychological. I work out very early in the morning, and taking AG1 after I wake up and before my workout just puts me on a good path for the rest of the day, it sets me up nicely. I usually couple AG1 with a healthy dose of creatine. I realize that it's an expensive multivitamin, but somehow sipping on this green drink early in the morning satisfies me a lot more than having a multivitamin pill. It also helps to reduce any early morning cravings I might have due to working out fasted, on an empty stomach. btw, I work out fasted because my trainings are very early and i find that having a solid pre-workout meal just doesn't sit right with me, probably due to very short amount of time ti digest it. So i feel better with only a drink beforehand. Again, AG1 is not a miracle greens superfood gut healing drink, I know that, but it really does put me in a good psychological head-state already early in the morning and so it makes it easer to make the right healthy choices later in the day.
Nothing wrong with that.. but your biggest asset is the gym each morning and consistency going AG1 or not. The gym has done more for my mental health than anything else. That’s not to say other things don’t also play a major role.
@@josiahschaffer9652 couldn't agree more :)
Nicely done
Thank you!
Wow. Good to see her speaking truth to power. How long before the money comes to speak with her
I am not doubting the science or the knowledge of Ronda. I love her and respect her and has followed her for a long time. But I legitimately just feel better when I’m on athletic greens. And maybe it is placebo but I’ll take it if that’s what it is because I feel so much better when I take athletic greens versus when I don’t.
You may need the vitamins.... simple reason
Excellent!
Thanks for posting this fact
Keeping it 100. Respect.
Is it what they say it is ?...Rhonda " No ".. i just love this Girl ! ❤️ , she's my go to for all things fitness and supplements
Thank you for the honest answer. So many RUclipsrs and Podcasters are in bed with AG-1 and hype it up like crazy because they get 50% of the $99 a month cost for each sale attributed to them.
Oh wow, 50%? That's insane. I knew they were paying people good
In perpetuity too, right? They keep getting money for as long as that person stays a customer. Rhonda can’t be bought!
Commenting to help this video out
AG1 has the pre/probiotics + superfood blends + vitamins/micronutrients that would still be the same price or more of you bought them separately.
If the amounts are minuscule, what is the appropriate dosage?
Also, can you take electrolyte powder with AG1 in the morning?
🤡
@@dabd8175no thoughts or argument? Just lukewarm IQ following a hate trend? Appreciate the help bub.
thanks for that
