AG1 verdict
AG1 packs 75 ingredients into proprietary blends, which means most are present in fairy-dust amounts you can't verify. The two or three that are meaningfully dosed (vitamin C, some B-vitamins) are cheap staples. Independent estimates put ~50–70% of the price on brand and marketing. The parts that actually do something — D3, magnesium, ashwagandha — you can buy in bulk for cents.
Daily Greens verdict
Same overstuffing critique as AG1 — 91 ingredients across six blends means most are trace amounts doing little. Huel's food products are well-regarded, but this greens powder is more ingredient count than dosed nutrition.
