Is All Day Energy Greens a scam? All Day Energy Greens is a greens-based, superfood product manufactured by Institute for Vibrant Living. All Day Energy Greens is one of the most popular superfood drink products in the marketplace, mainly because it is an excellent product and because IVL markets the product very aggressively. Because of it’s popularity, people have asked if All Day Energy Greens is a scam. Just google it and you can see for yourself. Let’s investigate. 
All Day Energy Greens Scam – Why people are saying this.
What is a scam anyway? The definition of a scam is a fraudulent scheme, a deception, a swindle. All Day Energy Greens is a very good greens-based, superfood drink. I’ve taken it myself. In fact, I did a comprehensive product review of it on this site. It is an all-natural product and uses natural sweeteners. It also happens to be a very good value at only $39.99 for an approximate 1-month supply.
So why are people calling it a scam? To be honest, I’m not sure. My theory is because of the claims it makes.
A Day’s Worth of Energy?
The name of the product implies that a single serving of All Day Energy Greens will provide a day’s worth of energy. This is a pretty steep claim. But what exactly is energy? Most people have the wrong idea about energy. It is a deadly misconception. Many people think energy is something gained externally. Drinking a cup of coffee. Drinking a 5 Hour Energy. Taking a diet pill. Energy is not gained by chemicals like caffeine or ephedrine. These merely spike the adrenal system… make the heart beat faster. Sure, you feel alert and feel like you have more energy. You don’t. And people that are addicted to things like diet pills that have ephedrine, think they’re doing themselves a favor by losing weight and experiencing high levels of energy. In fact, they are chemically suppressing the appetite and forcing the body to secrete adrenaline.
Real Energy is Created Internally
Adrenaline is for “fight or flight” responses… necessary for our survival. That’s why when someone pulls out and front of you and you slam on your breaks and narrowly evade a nasty car crash, your heart is beating like crazy and you are taking deep breaths. There is serious adrenaline coursing through your veins. You think you’re in the mood to eat when this happens? You think it’s healthy to have this “high” all day long? No wonder there’s a litany of wrongful death suits centered on ephedrine.
Keep the Cells Happy
Real energy is created on a cellular level. One of the primary functions of cells is to provide energy to the body. In order to get the most energy out of the cells we need to feed them. Not Starbucks. We need to feed them nutrient-dense foods. Like green, leafy, water-rich vegetables for example. Like the superfoods found in All Day Energy Greens. The reason why superfood drinks and juicing vegetables is so healthy is because of the phytonutrients. These chemicals give us REAL energy.
But Really A Whole Day’s Worth?
This is where All Day Energy Greens bites off more than it can chew. Each serving of ADEG is approximately 10 grams of total nutrition and 34 calories. As a supplement, this is a decent amount of nutrients. However, 10 grams and 34 calories is not going to provide anywhere close to a full days worth of energy. It just doesn’t work that way. Ingesting 10 grams of nutrient-dense foods is certainly beneficial and will help promote energy, but there’s just not enough to provide a full day’s worth.

Lose 51 Pounds in 2 Months
On the landing page for All Day Energy Greens it leads with a graphic of a fit-looking, fifty-something man and claims that “Michael” lost 51 pounds in 2 months from All Day Energy Greens. That’s almost a pound a day. Highly unlikely that Michael lost 51 pounds simply by taking a greens-superfood drink that is 10.6 grams and 34 calories per serving. However, with that being said, eating superfoods and taking superfood powder drinks is a superb weight-loss tool. They help curb the appetite while providing bounties of nutrition and energy to the body.
Is All Day Energy Greens A Scam?
Of course not. This is a very good product that contains superb nutrients and superfoods at a very competitive price. The company makes themselves a target for criticism because they make very aggressive claims. Quite frankly, this is unnecessary. The product stands tall on its’ own merits. But just because they go a little overboard on their marketing does not make All Day Energy Greens a scam.

I take green super grass with vitamins once a day. Since only 6 grams should I take 1 scoop twice a day ? How many times per day should we be taking our supergreens. And when. Any limit to our body’s absorption and benefit. Great stuff my husband and I Have been able to stop our acid reflux meds !
Thanks for your comments. The beautiful thing about taking “greens” powder is that it’s like food. I take two full scoops of the Total Living Drink Greens everyday. (Most every day.) You always want to make sure you are following the label directions or following the advice of a health care professional. Often times, green drinks will have added herbs, antioxidants and other things that you may not want to take too much of.
People,
Please read the labels of the products you intend to buy. Do your research! Be informed and buy well. It’s for your health- it’s for you. No on else’s opinion needs to matter.
Patricia. Thanks for conributing.
I read on another site that all day energy greens contains arsenic and a lot of lead.
Hi Just Fed Up… it’s Prop 65… You be your own judge but in our honest opinion, Prop 65 is complete BS! It’s only in the state of California and it reeks of lawyer-created-revenue… check out this link… http://prop65scam.com/

Ok sounds like a legit product, but if I order do I keep getting shipments of the product every month and will I be charged for wh hat is supposed to be free? I had this problem when I decided to try ginkgo canoba or whatever it’s called
Hi June,
We believe that ADEG is a fairly straight-up proposition… you order, they ship. We ordered multiple times and were never conned into an auto-ship.
Thanks for your comment!

Can you compare ADEG with Go Ruby Go and advise the readers what is better?
Hi Jayshukh,
Thanks for your inquiry. All Day Energy Greens is a very well-rounded, mid-range green drink powder. IVL is a reputable company and have a decent product line. In terms of a comparison, ADEG is a greens based drink whereas Go Ruby GO is a fruit/berry-based drink. ADEG has approximately 10 total grams of nutrition per serving whereas Go Ruby has just over 8 grams. They both have probiotics but only ADEG has digestive enzymes. From a pure health point of view, ADEG is going to provide more nutrition and more overall phytonutrients in our opinion but that does not mean that Go Ruby Go is not a healthy product. The antioxidants and phytonutrients from certain fruits and berries are profoundly abundant. Either product would be a good choice but we’d select ADEG as the one that delivers more overall nutrition. Hope this helps.
I love ADEG. I used it and lost 25 lbs in 18 months and I have back problems and take a steroid shots every month and I thought I would NEVER be able to lose any weight and when I discovered this and all the nutrients all I can say is this is great. I just told some ladies at my doctors office about it and I told them that its not the best tasting stuff at first but u will eventually get use to it. I told them that I put mine in orange juice and that helps…just drink it as fast as you can. I had quit this for about 6 months and gained 5 lbs back thru the holidays and I just last week started back on it. I will always use this as my go to because of all the great nutrients in it. Thanks ADEG a avid used from Missouri. Heres to loosing 30 lbs this round gotta make up for the 5 I gained while not taking my ADEG. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
