Zenith Labs Pure Greens formula is a greens formula containing fruit, herbal extracts, probiotics, prebiotics, digestive enzymes, and mushrooms.
The blend is specifically formulated to boost energy levels, support cognitive function, aid with weight loss, and more.
The formula, produced by apparent best-selling author and alternative medicine specialist, Dr. Ryan Shelton, contains 57 superfoods in total – 19 nutrition-packed fruits & vegetables, and 38 other herbs and nutrients!
If you’re thinking of purchasing the Zenith Labs Pure Greens formula or you’re also interested in taking a closer look at it, check out my full Zenith Labs Pure Greens review below.
What is Zenith Labs Pure Greens?
My initial impression of Zenith Labs is actually quite good.
The brand’s website is clean, sophisticated, and eye-catching, and there’s a wide range of information about the supplements, which is always good!
The Pure Greens formula certainly looks interesting, seeing as the brand has packed 57 ingredients into a powdered formula – it’s going to be interesting to see if the formula actually packs a punch or not.

Background on Zenith Labs
There is very little information about Zenith Labs, which is concerning. Even more concerning, Dr. Ryan Shelton, who is apparently the doctor behind the brand, has no traceable and reliable information online.
Although on the Zenith Labs website Dr. Shelton is supposed to have written books and changed people’s lives whilst working in Hawaii, there are no books under his name and there’s no information about him working in Hawaii.
Not a great start…
Zenith Labs Pure Greens Benefits
Zenith Labs claims that the Pure Greens will supply a range of benefits whilst also helping with weight loss and providing essential micronutrients.
The brand claims that the formula will boost energy levels, support memory function and concentration, improve metabolism, improve the look and quality of the skin, and boost the immune system.
Zenith Labs Pure Greens Ingredients
Zenith Labs Pure Greens contains 57 ingredients, all of which apart from stevia leaf extract exist within proprietary blends. This causes an issue when trying to work out the efficacy of the formula.
However, I will be taking a closer look at the efficacy of the formula later in this review.
First, let’s take a look at the formula’s ingredient label!

Here is the supplement facts label:
How does Zenith Labs Pure Greens Taste?
The formula is sweetened with stevia leaf extract, so it should taste sweet, albeit still natural due to the fact that there are no flavoring ingredients.
However, since there are no unbiased reviews of the formula, it’s unclear what the formula actually tastes like.
Side Effects
The brand warns that the formula should not be consumed by anyone under 18, or anyone pregnant or breastfeeding. The brand also recommends that anyone who has a medical condition or anyone who is taking medication should consult a doctor before consumption.
Does Zenith Labs Pure Greens Work?
Delving into the ingredients of this formula it's difficult to see how it can compete with the top greens powders.
All of the ingredients bar stevia leaf extract within the formula exist within proprietary blends.
Proprietary blends pose a problem since the amount of each ingredient is not disclosed, therefore it’s hard to know if the ingredients are sufficiently dosed in relation to the standard recommended doses they have.
Although this makes it incredibly hard to work out the efficacy of the formula, we can take a look at the amount of each blend and the combined recommended dose of the ingredients within that blend (although not every ingredient has a recommended dose).
So, let’s take a look.
The Herb Blend only totals 1.5g, and the recommended dose of the ingredients with standard recommended doses (spirulina, wheatgrass, chlorella, and turmeric powder) totals 6.5g.
Therefore, it’s clear that this blend does not contain sufficiently dosed ingredients.
The Mushrooms Blend totals 150mg. Each ingredient has a recommended dose of between 200mg – 1g. Therefore, since the blend has 8 ingredients, even the lowest combined recommended dose would equal 1.6g.
This is more than ten times the dose of the total blend amount – again, clearly, the formula is underdosed!
With a total serving size of 4g, it’s clear that the formula does not contain sufficiently dosed ingredients. Therefore, it’s likely that the formula is not effective in the way that the brand claims.

Zenith Labs Pure Greens Reviews
Although I tend to look on Amazon for unbiased customer reviews of formulas, the Zenith Labs Pure Greens formula is not available on Amazon. Therefore, to look at reviews of the product, we have to look on the Zenith Labs website.
There are no star ratings and only positive reviews on the formula on the site. Therefore, you want to keep in mind that the reviews on this site are likely very biased – take them with a pinch of salt.
So, let’s take a look at a selection of these reviews.
Since taking Pure Greens I have increased energy. I am able to do more and have better mental performance. I am drinking more water and I am feeling nourished and fueled. I take it every day and am noticing the positive effects. Pure Greens has helped me in ways I never expected!
Customer review
I was struggling with my weight. I weighed 265 lbs. I was unhappy, lethargic, and unmotivated. I needed more vegetables and greens in my diet. I added Pure Greens along with exercise and now my weight is 229 lbs! I feel much better and happier since taking Pure Greens. It really works for me.
Customer review
I am an avid cyclist and was just not recovering like I normally do. Pure Greens has given me the edge. I feel more powerful on the bike and my recovery time is quicker. Pure Greens taste great and the benefits are even better! Try Pure Greens! You’ll be glad you did. Customer reviewer
Money-Back Guarantee / Returns Policy
Zenith Labs has a 180-day money-back guarantee – if you’re unhappy with the formula, even if you’ve finished the bottle, you can receive a refund.
Where to buy Zenith Labs Pure Greens?
The Pure Greens formula is only available to buy on the Zenith Labs website.
Is It Worth The Price?
Each tub of Zenith Labs Pure Greens contains 30 servings and you can buy the formula on a one-time purchase or on a subscription.
One tub of Pure Greens on a one-time purchase costs $39.99, meaning the cost per serving works out at $1.33.
If you subscribe to receiving the formula, one tub costs $31.20, meaning the cost per serving works out at $1.04.
Although the formula is cheap and could potentially provide benefits to the consumer, the fact that the formula most likely contains insufficiently dosed amounts of many of the ingredients means it may not work.
Therefore, I’m unsure if I would say that the formula is worth the price, seeing as it may not provide the benefits that the brand claims it will.
Pure Greens Verdict
Overall, I’m incredibly unimpressed with this formula.
Firstly, the brand doesn’t seem transparent, and is almost like a bit of a scam – the fact that there’s no reputable information online about the doctor behind the brand concerns me.
Secondly, and most importantly, in my opinion, the fact that the formula definitely does not contain sufficiently dosed ingredients means it may not actually provide consumers with the benefits that the brand claims it will.
Thirdly and finally, the fact that there are only positive, most likely biased, and potentially fake customer reviews on the product doesn’t make it easy to trust the brand or formula.
Overall, I would not recommend this formula. Instead, I would recommend choosing a formula that contains sufficiently dosed ingredients, has a fully disclosed ingredients label, and is from a trusted brand.
LifeHacker Guy Greens Recommendation
Some Call This An "Extreme" Step...
Most super greens supplements are disappointing.
I learned this the hard way. After creating this blog in 2018, I spent months buying and testing all the most popular brands.
I wasn’t happy with the results so I did something you might call "extreme"....
In 2019 I created my own brand that ticks every single box of what I look for in a super greens product:
- No hidden ingredient amounts - we have full disclosure labelling, so you know EXACTLY whats inside
- Ingredient amounts that make a difference - we include the minimum effective amounts supported by research, and most of the time, MORE
- Ingredients that help immunity, boost mental clarity and shake off brain fog - making for a much more productive and happy lifestyle
No more worrying about ineffective ingredients or too low dosages. I finally have a product I KNOW does the job it’s made to do.
I use it every day and, after years of battling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), I now have my energy (and my life!) back.
The good news? I made my brand available to the public so you can see and feel the difference for yourself.
