Welcome to Deep Dive with Blake and Amy. I'm Blake.And I'm Amy.Alright, so, uh, let me take you back to when I first started looking at supplement labels. I remember standing in the aisle, holding two bottles and thinking, “What... what am I even looking at here?” It's all like percentages and big words like spirulina, right? And I honestly had no idea how to figure out what I was paying for. Am I getting a good deal, or just... buying the label?Exactly! And that’s a perfect setup because we’re seeing in this wellness space that sometimes people are paying a lot for what’s essentially just a fancy name and packaging. But with RELiv Greeens, you’re getting measurable value... and by that, I mean cost-per-milligram value, where they’re transparent about what’s in it.Okay, cost-per what? Can you break that down for you know... regular people, like me?Absolutely. Cost-per-milligram means you're looking at how much you're paying for each tiny unit, or milligram, of an ingredient. It's a way to see if you're paying for actual quality ingredients or just a sprinkling of them in your product.Like when a label throws in a trendy ingredient, but it’s barely in there?Exactly! RELiv Greeens doesn’t do that. For example, they include 250 milligrams of chlorella, 2.5 times more than AG1 and 5 times more than Amazing Grass. And on top of that, the cost for each milligram is lower, around one cent compared to three cents in AG1.So not only are you getting more, but you’re also getting it cheaper per unit?Yep. The same goes for spirulina. These greeens have 250 milligrams per serving, while AG1 has about 150 milligrams, double the price per milligram. You can see the value when you compare other ingredients, too—for example, they even include MCT oil and aloe vera, which the other brands completely skip.Hold on. While other brands might look good on a shelf, RELiv Greeens is kind of saying, "Hey, check our numbers; we’ve got receipts."Exactly! It’s like—no surprises. They’re among the few brands that disclose amounts, instead of hiding behind proprietary blends or buzzwords. And the best part? These ingredients are also in therapeutic doses, meaning they’re in the amounts that science says are effective, not just thrown in for marketing.Alright, I think I'm starting to connect the dots here. So, when looking at wellness products, you’ve gotta ask—what am I paying for? Is it hype? Or are they, you know, actual results?You mentioned chlorella and spirulina a moment ago—can we dig deeper into those? Like, what makes them so important? Why are they included in these formulas, and what are they doing for us?Great question. So, chlorella and spirulina are algae, which sounds kind of weird, I don’t know, but they’re powerhouses. Chlorella, for example, is fantastic for detoxing because it binds to heavy metals in your body and helps flush them out. Science says you need at least 250 milligrams a day for it to work like that, which, as we were saying, RELiv Greeens hits perfectly.Wait. So you're telling me this tiny green algae can help clean out metals in your body?Exactly. And spirulina? It’s like its nutrient-dense cousin—packed with vitamins and antioxidants and great for reducing inflammation. So together, these two are like the dream team of greens for your body.I gotta say, that’s not what I was expecting. But what about these other ingredients you mentioned? MCT oil and aloe vera sound like something I’d find in, I don’t know, a skincare product.Right? But hear me out MCT oil is all about energy. It’s a type of fat that your body turns straight into fuel, bypassing the usual storage process. Athletes and people on ketogenic diets swear by it.I’ve heard of it. I just didn’t know you could sprinkle it into a green powder.And it’s a standout because no other major green brands are including it. Then there’s aloe vera, which is excellent for gut health. It’s soothing, anti-inflammatory, like a little spa day for your digestive system.RELiv Greeens is packing a lot into one scoop here, huh?They are. The fact that these doses are clinically effective—it’s clear they’re prioritizing results over just having a long list of trendy names.All right, Amy, so with all these clinically effective doses you mentioned, it makes me wonder—how much can people trust what’s on the label with supplements? Like, those terms... proprietary blends, therapeutic doses... it feels like there’s so much jargon out there.Yeah, and that’s the tricky part, right? Transparency matters here. When a brand lists a proprietary blend, it means, "We’re not gonna tell you how much of each ingredient is actually in here." It’s like saying it’s in there... but, uh, is it enough to do anything?Right, so it could just be a sprinkle of something trendy, but not enough to make a difference?Exactly. And that’s a big issue for consumers—it’s hard to trust a product when you’re left guessing. RELiv Greeens, though, lists exact amounts for everything. It’s super upfront, and because of that, you know the doses are at levels that work, not just for marketing show.Okay, but here’s what I don’t get: Why wouldn’t every brand do that? Like, what, uh, what are they hiding?Well, for some brands, it comes down to cost. It could look not good if they tell you how little of an ingredient they’re using, especially if they’re charging a premium price. Transparency shines a spotlight on whether you’re paying for quality... or hype.Hah, the numbers don’t lie. Are they willing to show them?Exactly. Take RELiv Greeens they put it all out there. Not just the chlorella, spirulina, or fiber doses, but even those, you know, harder-to-find ingredients like MCT oil and aloe vera. That’s real confidence in what they’re offering.Yeah, that kind of, uh, honesty builds trust. They say, "Hey, here’s what you’re getting—and here’s why it works."Right, and I think more consumers are waking up to that. It’s about demanding brands prove their claims—cause your health is on the line at the end of the day.Well, it’s been an eye-opener, honestly. I feel like the next time I look at a label, I will have so many more questions and fewer brands to trust.And that’s the takeaway, right? Be curious, do your homework, and look for brands like RELiv Greeens that back up their promises with complete transparency. It’s the only way to know you’re getting what you pay for.Absolutely. Alright, that’s all for today, folks. Thanks for diving into this with us—you’ve given me a lot to think about, Amy.Always a pleasure, Blake. And for everyone listening, take care, stay curious, and we’ll catch you next time.
