DIY Super Greens Mix Powder: A Nutritional Powerhouse

Reading Time: 6 minutes

This amazing immune-boosting powdered super green mix is an adaption from a recipe my mentor Enoch DeBus put together while he was deep in the throes of Beating Cancer God’s Way! It’s full of bioactive ingredients that take any smoothie to another level.

While this recipe isn’t for everyone, I consider it one of my best money-saving hacks as it costs considerably less than purchasing a commercial greens powder. Whether you make an investment in your own health or decide to split the cost with a few friends, it’s sure to give you the boost you need!

Using Super Green Mix for Health Benefits

Here are some of our favorite ways to utilize this superfood.

  • Mix 2-3 tablespoons in one of my breakfast smoothies
  • Add it to a refreshing smoothie bowl
  • Stir a tablespoon into dairy-free yogurt
  • Add a tablespoon to healthy pancakes
  • Stir a tablespoon into your morning oatmeal
  • Make your favorite smoothie, as usual, but add a tablespoon of super greens powder, and freeze into healthy popsicles
  • Stir a tablespoon into your matcha tea or add it to your matcha latte

There’s no end to the creative ways you can use this super greens powder! It’s easy to incorporate it into your everyday life. Your body will thank you!

Try my Super Reds powder if you want to include even more wonder foods in your diet. This supplement contains goji berries, acai, baobab, and even strawberries!

Immune Boosting Ingredients

Ingredients for DIY Super Green Mix Powder: A Nutritional Immune Powerhouse

Purchase organic ingredients when you can find them! We prefer to purchase our ingredients in bulk from Nuts.com or Amazon. From experience, I’ve found that you can’t buy most of these ingredients in quantities of less than a pound without paying significantly more per ounce for smaller amounts.

There’s no doubt that this recipe contains a few ingredients you aren’t familiar with. Here’s what each component does for your body.

Bee Pollen: Bees are good for more than just honey! Bee pollen is one of the most nutritionally complete ingredients out there. It contains over 200 components, including antioxidants and fatty acids (1).

Research has shown that bee pollen can prevent cancer because it signals your body to kill off abnormal cells (2). As if these benefits weren’t enough, adding this ingredient to a healthy super greens powder is a total power move as it can help your body better absorb other nutrients (3).

Unsweetened Cacao Powder: Cacao is filled with antioxidants. Antioxidants are essential to your diet because they help fight free radicals, thus lowering inflammation (4). Inflammation is linked to cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and cancer (5). You’ll love the delicious chocolate flavor this ingredient gives your smoothies!

Chia Seeds: Chia seeds are unique because they start small but expand when wet. Because of this factor and their high fiber count, they can help you feel fuller longer and lose weight (6). This has made them a popular pudding ingredient, but they are also lovely in shakes.

Chlorella Powder: This gorgeous powder is made from algae. It’s a superfood ingredient you can’t live without! Chlorella powder is a beautiful detox agent as it binds to lead and other heavy metals (7). Along with detoxing, it also contains powerful antioxidants (8). What a winning combination!

Ginkgo Leaf Powder: This ingredient comes from the ginkgo Biloba plant. This Chinese remedy has been used for centuries to improve mental health and treat headaches (9)(10). Traditionally, it’s used in teas and adds a healthy dose of antioxidants to your diet!

Gotu Kola Powder: This ingredient is an everyday staple in Ayurvedic medicine. It helps detoxify the liver, and it’s anti-inflammatory. Studies show that joint aches and pains lessened after consuming it! (11)

Many people in other countries associate this herb with a better quality of life, even in old age.

Guarana Powder: If you need a boost of energy, drop the toxic drinks and invest in my Super Greens Powder!

Guarana powder is more caffeinated than a cup of coffee, but it’s a clean source of caffeine, so you won’t have a mid-day energy slump (12).  

Hemp Protein Powder: To keep this recipe dairy-free, we forgo whey protein powder in favor of a plant-based variety. You’re going to love how creamy hemp protein powder is!

One serving of hemp powder contains all the nine essential amino acids humans need (13). Plus, it tastes incredible.

Kelp Powder: This bright sea vegetable can assist you in your weight-loss efforts. Research shows that consuming kelp powder can reduce the amount of fat your body absorbs (14). It also gives your body a huge dose of iron, magnesium, and vitamin A.

Red Maca Powder: Maca is part of the cruciferous family. These plants are the best for your body and contain cancer-fighting phytonutrients. Aside from fighting cancer, maca powder can also boost your libido (15).

Noni Powder: This Polynesian fruit is regarded as a superfood among natives. They juice noni fruit to create a drink rumored to cure whatever ails you. While that claim may be a stretch, studies show that noni powder is anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, and can even strengthen your immune system (16).

Pumpkin Seed Powder:  This ingredient is a powerful tool for those who wish to prevent cancer. It slows the growth of existing cancer cells and reduces your overall cancer risk (17)(18).

Studies across the board show that pumpkinseed powder is a fantastic cancer-fighting agent for both men and women!

Spirulina Powder: As we age, healthy gut bacteria can decrease, leading to many issues beyond digestion. When your gut health is good, your whole body benefits! Spirulina powder can help preserve beneficial gut bacteria (19).

Stevia Powder: My Super Greens Powder contains so many elements that it has to have a hint of sweetness. To keep this recipe sugar-free, we use stevia powder. This potent sweetener is low-glycemic, and it tastes fantastic. A little goes a long way! 4 ounces sweeten the entire batch.

VitaCherry Powder: This brilliant powder is made from tart cherries. You can still benefit from this ingredient even if you’re not athletic! VitaCherry powder is popular among athletes as it helps decrease muscle soreness after sporting events (20).

Cinnamon: Free radicals run rampant and cause oxidative stress in the body, leading to aches, pains, and other forms of inflammation. Cinnamon contains many antioxidants that fight against free radicals (21). Bonus: It makes this recipe taste amazing!

This recipe contains many ingredients, but it is easy to put together! There’s peace of mind knowing you have 365 healthy servings of super greens. Even when life gets crazy, you have a go-to meal or snack that will nourish your body and mind.

Step One: Combine Super Greens Ingredients

DIY Super Green Mix Powder: A Nutritional Immune Powerhouse

Place the bee pollen, cacao, chia seeds, chlorella, ginkgo leaf, Gotu kola, guarana, hemp protein, kelp, red maca, noni, pumpkinseed, spirulina, stevia, and VitaCherry powders, and the cinnamon and ginger in a large container.

You can also combine the ingredients in a sanitized cooler or large food-grade bags, doubled up. If using bags, use your hand to fold the ingredients and dispel any chunks.

Stir until totally combined. I like to use a wire whisk or slotted spoon, so the mixture moves freely.

Step Two: Divide Super Greens Powder
