Your Super aims to improve your health through the regular use of their superfood and plant protein powder mixes. Founded by Michael Kuech and Kristel de Groot after Kristel and her family created superfood mixes for Michael, who was diagnosed with cancer at just 24, in order to easily add whole foods to his daily diet.
According to Your Super, “everyone who tested the mixes began to feel healthier, more energized, experienced better digestion, and had fewer cravings”. In addition to superfood mixes, they also have several superfood-packed bars.
Individual Your Super superfood powder mixes start at $29.99 for a one-time purchase and $25.50 if you subscribe to ongoing shipments. Protein Powders start at $34.90.
Each mix container has between 20-40 servings or portions and each portion is 1 teaspoon – 2 tablespoons. You can save by buying mixes in bundles in addition to signing up for ongoing monthly deliveries.
Free standard shipping is offered on purchases of $75+ and free expedited shipping is included with orders of $100+.
PLUS, when you Subscribe you will receive:
Your Super is not only helping to improve the health of people worldwide they have also partnered with Action Against Hunger to donate 1 bar of life-saving food to children suffering from acute malnutrition for every mix sold. By purchasing Your Super superfood mixes you are helping yourself and others. A win-win!
You can buy Your Super superfood mixes and bars on the Your Super website.
You can also buy some Your Super mixes and bundles on Amazon. Amazon does not offer all of the superfood mixes or bundles and does not currently offer superfood bars.
You might be asking yourself “what exactly is a superfood”? A superfood is a nutrient-dense whole food (unprocessed, real, nothing artificial), usually plant-based and rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.
Superfoods, like matcha, acai, chia seeds, and more, have been used for hundreds of years and proven to improve your health, boost energy, strengthen your immune system, and much more.
Your Super offers 12+ superfood mixes made with up to 6 high-quality, certified organic, 100% plant-based, and gluten-free ingredients. Each mix has specific benefits and helps your body in a different way. In addition to superfood mixes, Your Super has convenient superfood Bars.
We tried several superfood mixes and bars and share all of the details below.
Not sure which superfood mix to buy? Each one has a unique combination of ingredients that will help your body. They are not meant to replace a meal and should be used with your normal meals throughout the day.
We recommend trying out several to see which works for you and your goals. More on each below.
Your Super recommends incorporating up to 5 servings of superfood mixes each day. You can even mix mixes!
We found it super easy to add a mix to just about everything that was creamy, a sauce, or a mix. We added the mixes to oatmeal, pancake mix, yogurt, pasta sauce, guacamole, blueberry muffins, peanut butter, and smoothies.
Your Super provides customers with a ton of amazing resources. Included in your package is a booklet with ingredient and recipe information as well as a link to recipes on their blog and a recipe E-Book (for free). They also have several e-book guides for sale including a 5-day Detox Guide, a breakfast guide, and a Natural Beauty Guide.
Good For: Helps provide hormonal balance (and may even increase your libido!)
Your Super Moon Balance superfoods mix is a blend of 6 hormone-supporting superfoods. Each of these superfoods helps to naturally support hormonal balance, fight the symptoms of PMS and menopause, and they even say could increase your libido.
This mix is $29.99 if you make a one-time purchase, less if you subscribe.
I was excited to try this new superfood mix as I can struggle with mood swings and energy levels like many other women out there. I’ve been adding the Moon Balance mix to my morning smoothie for about a month and feel great, though I’m not sure how much of a difference this has really made on my mood swings or energy.
I’m going to continue to use this superfoods mix for several months to really get a feel for the benefits as this is not a magic bullet and these types of changes don’t happen overnight.
Update: I’m really enjoying the Moon Balance mix as it makes me feel better on the days that I add it to my morning smoothie. I can’t put my finger on exactly what is changing, but maybe I feel more “balanced”?
I haven’t noticed any huge changes in my libido or mood swings and will keep you posted if I do 🙂
Good For: A morning or afternoon pick-me-up without the crash!
I first tried the Energy Bomb and Forever Beautiful superfood mixes. I selected the Energy Bomb mix to incorporate into our morning breakfast routine and afternoon snacks to give me a natural boost of energy.
I tried adding Energy Bomb mix to a number of different foods including pancakes, smoothies, oatmeal, and muffins. When I added it to most things I couldn’t taste it at all, but when I added it to plain oatmeal I could definitely taste an earthy taste, almost like black tea, with a hint of berry.
The taste was fine, but I didn’t love it and simply added blueberries and cinnamon to make this flavor less noticeable.
What I did notice was after using the Energy Bomb superfoods mix for over a month in my morning smoothie, I could definitely notice the boost in energy that I had in the morning. I even gave up my morning black tea which I’ve been drinking every morning for over 20 years.
I love the lasting energy and that I didn’t crash as I do with coffee or energy drinks. I highly recommend the Energy Bomb superfoods mix for your morning pick-me-up!
Good For: Improving your skin from the inside out!
The Forever Beautiful mix I selected for its antioxidants, skin support, and berry taste as we love fruity flavors and thought it would be great for adding to smoothies and baked goods.
I found that when you add either or both of the Energy Bomb and Forever Beautiful mixes to foods with strong flavors like pasta sauce, smoothies, or fruit-flavored yogurt you couldn’t notice them at all. We loved adding these superfoods to pancakes!
You couldn’t taste them at all in the finished product, but I knew that we were getting powerful superfoods in every bite. I tried both the Energy Bomb and Forever Beautiful in plain water and didn’t really love either taste and wouldn’t recommend getting your superfoods that way.
I’ve been making delicious morning smoothies with both Your Super Energy Bomb and Forever Beautiful mixes for over a month and absolutely LOVE how I am feeling. In addition to the natural energy boost, I’m also more regular and less bloated after breakfast.
I’m still perfecting the recipe, but can’t get enough of this berry mint superfoods smoothie. (see below)
The Forever Beautiful superfoods mix is packed with antioxidants and is supposed to be great for your skin as it contains 110% of your daily vitamin C and helps boost your collagen production.
It also has omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins A and E which are great for your skin as well.
Using this mix long-term is a must as it takes time to see results. After a month, I didn’t notice any sort of dramatic change in my skin, but I’m sure that those antioxidants were helping.
Each Your Super Bar is made of just 4 100% organic, non-GMO ingredients, a full serving of superfood mixes, and contains no added sugar, additives, fillers, sweeteners, preservatives, or flavoring. They are also gluten-, dairy-, and soy-free.
The Your Super bars come in 4 flavors: Chocolate Lover, Golden Mellow, Super Green, and Energy Bomb. We tried the first 3 flavors.
Your Super says that his bar helps to curb sweet cravings and tastes like healthy chocolate brownies. We think this bar tastes like the main ingredient of dates with hints of almonds and chocolate.
This bar is our favorite of the three and does not have an overly chocolate taste, just enough to curb those sweet cravings and keep you full in between meals.
The Golden Mellow bar is supposed to help you combat stress and reduce inflammation with a pumpkin spice taste. We found this bar to taste like ginger and turmeric. If you like the warm flavors of ginger and turmeric you will enjoy this bar.
I don’t love the taste of ginger and therefore didn’t care for this bar, but it did make me feel a little calm.
Finally, the Super Green bar offers a full serving of veggies with the taste of lemon cake. To us, this bar has a strong lemon flavor at first from the lemon oil used with a sweetness at the end from the dates.
If you like lemon, you will like the taste of this bar with the added benefit of veggies from the Super Green Mix. The lemon flavor was a bit too strong for my tastes, but after trying it a couple of times it is now my second favorite.
Your Super Bars currently come in a variety pack with 10 of each flavor for $86.90 (that’s just $2.90 per bar!) as a one-time purchase or subscribe and save 20% – $69.52/box of 30 bars.
Or you can purchase a box of 10 bars in a single flavor for $28.90 one-time delivery or subscribe and save 20% – $23.12/box.
Now you can take the power of superfoods anywhere with this clean, healthy snack option! Perfect for after a workout, while you are on the go, or for a quick breakfast.
While there is no magic bullet or quick-fix for improving your health, Your Super superfood mixes are an easy way to incorporate nutrient-dense superfoods into your daily routine. For me, the superfood mixes have helped regulate my digestion, given me more sustainable energy in my morning, and just made me feel better. I highly recommend the Energy Bomb mix to give you natural energy without the crash.
Out of the 3 Your Super bars, the Chocolate Lover Bar was our favorite. It tasted like the inside of a Fig Newton with hints of almonds and chocolate without the sugar and preservatives. We wish that you could buy a variety pack in a smaller quantity to make it easier to taste all three and pick your favorite.
Compared to other superfood mixes, we like that Your Super mixes are certified organic and 100% plant-based and that they offer full transparency into all of the ingredients used as well as where they are sourced. We also like that they have a money-back guarantee. If you don’t love it, reach out and they will make it right.
We recommend purchasing one or two mixes, based on your needs, and adding them to recipes that you already know and love. From there you can branch out and try new mixes and recipes on your way to improving your overall health.
