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. It costs considerably less than purchasing a commercial greens powder. Whether you invest in your health or decide to split the cost with a few friends, it’s sure to give you the boost you need!

Immune Boosting Ingredients
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.
Organic Bee Pollen: Bees are good for more than just honey! Bee pollen is one of the most nutritionally complete ingredients. 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).
Organic Raw 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!
Organic Chia Seeds: Chia seeds are unique because they start small but expand when wet. Combined with their high fiber count, this factor 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.
Organic 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 that binds to lead and other heavy metals (7). In addition to detoxing, it contains powerful antioxidants (8). What a winning combination!
Organic 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!
Organic 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.
Organic Guarana Powder: If you need an energy boost, 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 experience a mid-day energy slump (12).
Organic Hemp Protein Powder: To keep this recipe dairy-free, we forgo whey protein powder in favor of a plant-based variety. You’ll 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.
Organic 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.
Organic 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).
Organic Noni Powder: Natives consider this Polynesian fruit a superfood. They juice noni fruit to create a drink rumored to cure whatever ails them. While that claim may be a stretch, studies show that noni powder is anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-parasitic and can even strengthen the immune system (16).
Organic Pumpkin Seed Powder is a powerful tool for cancer prevention. It slows the growth of existing cancer cells and reduces overall cancer risk (17)(18).
Studies across the board show that pumpkinseed powder is a fantastic cancer-fighting agent for both men and women!
Organic Spirulina Powder: Healthy gut bacteria can decrease as we age, 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).
Organic 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.
Organic VitaCherry Powder: This brilliant powder is made from tart cherries. Even if you’re not athletic, you can benefit from this ingredient! VitaCherry powder is popular among athletes because it helps decrease muscle soreness after sporting events (20).
Organic Ceylon 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!
