KMC,
I would definitely say I’m not taking in enough greens. My diet is very clean minus that. Typical day looks like this.
Breakfast
8 egg whites 2 yolks / 1 cup of oatmeal with 5oz. of fruit
Mid morning
Protein shake - 1 scoop of ON Whey and 1 scoop of Muscle Milk. 2 salt free rice cakes
Lunch
1/4 lb of chicken breast / 2 pcs of wholewheat bread / 1 small apple
Mid-Afternoon
1 banana and 3 tablespoons of salt free natty peanut butter
Post workout
1 scoop of ON Whey and 1 scoop of Muscle Milk with creatine / 1/2 cup of oatmeal
Dinner
9oz ground turkey and 1 - 1.5 cups of broccoli
So as you can see I’m definitely lacking in the greens department. Can you recommend a good greens supplement? I have a real hard time getting veggies down. It’s all I can do to eat the broccoli.

Hey NC
I have used greens plus and one from whole foods that was pretty good. I forget the name of the one I picked up at whole foods.
Biotest has one called Superfood,I dont know too much about it.
Greens plus has been around along time and it worked for me
the greens have helped me with “regularity” if you know what I mean as well as combating some BO
you are getting some fruit maybe add some spinach or other leafy type things some tomatoes here and there, and an avocado will help if you wanted to boost some fats. I do fresh juice sometimes too But if you are avoding carbs you might have to
choose low GI veggies and fruits.
Huge energy boost and a great detox Like beets, spinach carrot
or parsley ginger carrot.
For me I am not so big on supplements, just not my thing.
( I really only do fish oil , greens and the occasional pw shake)
I find when increase my protein- I have to ramp up on veggies vs carbs as well.
good luck
