The verdict, first
On everything a shopper can verify, Earth Energy wins — and you should be suspicious of that sentence, so here's the proof. Its Supplement Facts label states an amount for all 11 ingredients (600 mg of plant material per two-capsule serving, led by 100 mg of organic beet root). Its testing claim names a standard — ISO/IEC 17025-accredited third-party labs screening for heavy metals, microbials and pesticides. And it costs $1.57 a day, or as little as $1.07 on subscription — roughly half of Balance of Nature's $3.00.
Now the other side, stated as plainly: Balance of Nature's six-capsule serving almost certainly contains more total powder than Earth Energy's two capsules — it just won't tell you how much of anything. If sheer volume of unspecified produce powder is what you want, the $90 product delivers more of it. If you want to know what you're swallowing, verify who tested it, and pay half as much — the label that shows its work is the one we own, which is why this page opened with that fact.

The amounts question — settled by one label, dodged by the other
Here is Earth Energy’s entire active formula, straight off the Supplement Facts panel: organic beet root 100 mg; wild carrot root, garlic root, ginger root, raspberry fruit juice powder, strawberry fruit juice powder, tomato fruit extract, organic apple fruit extract, organic camu camu, blueberry fruit extract and organic spinach leaf at 50 mg each. Total: 600 mg per two-capsule serving, plus a vegetable capsule and nothing else. You can disagree with the formula; you cannot be misled about it.
Balance of Nature names nearly three times as many plants — and puts a number on none of them. After a 2019 FDA warning letter, 2023 federal consent decrees (which included failures to establish ingredient specifications) and a $9.95 million class settlement over its marketing, the amounts still aren’t on the label. Our full review covers that record; on this page it settles the only comparison that matters: one of these products can be checked, the other must be trusted.
And the honest caveat, because our credibility rides on it: 600 mg is a modest amount of plant material — two capsules’ worth. Balance of Nature’s six daily capsules almost certainly contain more total powder. If you believe more unspecified powder beats less specified powder, that’s a coherent preference and the $90 product serves it. We think a supplement you can verify beats a bigger one you can’t — and neither is a substitute for the produce aisle, where intake is measured in hundreds of grams.
Testing: a named standard vs. an unsupported claim
Earth Energy’s product page names its standard: third-party testing in ISO/IEC 17025-accredited labs, screening for heavy metals, microbials and pesticides, with manufacturing in a U.S. cGMP facility. Balance of Nature, as of July 12, 2026, publishes no verifiable testing documentation — earlier “third-party tested” language was removed from its site after reviewers couldn’t locate support for it. We apply the same skeptical rule to both: a named, checkable standard beats an unsupported claim; published batch certificates would beat both, and neither brand posts those yet. We’ve told Earth Energy that directly — when its full scorecard publishes, that’s where testing points will be won or lost.
The math: $573 a year vs. $1,095
Balance of Nature at $89.99 every 30 days runs about $1,095 a year. Earth Energy at $46.95 runs $573 — or as low as $390 a year on the 180-day subscription ($191.95 per shipment, skip or cancel anytime). The gap is $500–$700 a year for a product whose label tells you less. Per disclosed milligram, the comparison can’t even be run — Balance of Nature publishes no milligrams to divide by.
Which one fits you
Earth Energy makes more sense if…
- You want every ingredient amount on the label — this is the only one of the two that does it
- A named testing standard (ISO/IEC 17025) matters to you
- You’d rather pay $1.07–$1.57 a day than $3.00 — and swallow 2 capsules, not 6
Balance of Nature makes more sense if…
- You want the largest possible volume of produce powder and don’t need the amounts itemized
- The 31-ingredient variety appeals more than 11 verified ingredients
- Its regulatory history doesn’t affect your trust — read the record and decide

Frequently asked questions
Is Earth Energy cheaper than Balance of Nature?
Yes — $46.95 for 30 servings ($1.57/day, checked July 14, 2026), or as low as $1.07/day on the 180-day subscription, versus Balance of Nature’s $89.99 per 30-day set ($3.00/day, checked July 12, 2026). About half the price.
Does Earth Energy disclose its ingredient amounts?
Yes, all 11: organic beet root at 100 mg and ten more ingredients at 50 mg each — 600 mg of plant material per two-capsule serving, with nothing else but the vegetable capsule. Balance of Nature names 31 ingredients and discloses no amounts.
Which gives you more total plant powder?
Probably Balance of Nature — six capsules hold more powder than two. But it won’t say how much of anything, so the bigger serving can’t be verified. Earth Energy’s smaller serving is fully itemized. Neither replaces real produce.
How is this comparison not just an ad for your own brand?
Three ways: the ownership is disclosed before the first claim; every fact carries a checked date and lives on a public label or product page you can verify in minutes; and Balance of Nature’s genuine advantage — more total powder — is stated plainly rather than buried. When Earth Energy’s full scored review publishes, it will be scored on the same rubric that gave its rival 35/100, and we’ll publish qualifying negative reader reports about it under the same rules as any brand.
