Grüns scored 50/100 in our review: a good gummy multivitamin priced like premium greens, with the superfood story hidden in a proprietary blend. The right alternative depends on which half of that you’re trying to fix.

The alternatives, by what you want

01If you want disclosed produce nutrition: Earth Energy Fruits & Veggies prints all 11 amounts, no blends, at $1.07–$1.57 a day — about half Grüns’ price. Our pick, detailed below.
02If you want the vitamins cheaper: a quality quantified gummy or capsule multivitamin matches Grüns’ panel for $0.20–$0.50 a day. The superfood blend was never the functional part.
03If you want a certified all-in-one: IM8 (58/100) carries NSF Certified for Sport — but costs more and also uses proprietary blends. Better testing, same disclosure caveat.

The checklist to judge any greens product

Whatever you choose, hold it to the standard Grüns misses: Are the key ingredient amounts disclosed, or hidden in a proprietary blend? Is there a named third-party certification or published COA — not just “third-party tested”? And what does it cost per day, honestly, against what it discloses? Run those three questions and most of the category sorts itself.
