AG1 is the best greens powder we’ve reviewed, and it’s not close on quality. The only question is whether the certification and breadth justify a price two to three times its rivals.
The real cost: about $960 a year
AG1 (Athletic Greens) costs $79 for 30 servings — $2.63 a serving, about $960 a year for daily use (checked July 19, 2026).
What that $2.63 a serving actually buys
NSF Certified for Sport testing (the only one in greens), the broadest 75-ingredient formula, a real 12 g scoop and the best taste. What the premium doesn’t buy is disclosure — most amounts sit in proprietary blends.
It might be worth it to you if…
- You want the best-tested, broadest greens powder and will use it daily
- You’re drug-tested and need the NSF Certified for Sport credential
- Taste and adherence justify a premium to you
It’s not worth it if…
- You want to know every ingredient amount (the blend won’t say)
- Price matters — ~$3 a day is $960–$1,188 a year
- You expect it to replace eating vegetables (no scoop does)
The verdict
If money’s no object and you’ll drink it daily, it’s defensible — it earned the top greens score. If not, a cheaper powder or a multivitamin-plus-produce gets you most of the way. The alternatives page maps both. See the alternatives and the full 69/100 review. Individual needs and results vary; talk with your healthcare provider before starting any supplement.
