Your Super

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”.   So they decided to share them with the world!

Your Super Energy Bomb Review

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 in 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 sustained energy and I don’t crash as I do with coffee or energy drinks.  I highly recommend the Energy Bomb superfoods mix for your morning pick-me-up!

Your Super Forever Beautiful Review

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 fo 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.  I won’t be renewing this subscription but may revisit.

Your Super Moon Balance Review

Good For: Helps provide hormonal balance (and can 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.  Here is the full ingredient list along with the benefits:

• BAOBAB is a vitamin and nutrient-rich fruit that keeps your mood stable and your hormones balanced.
• HIBISCUS helps reduce mood swings and PMS pain.
• MACA helps to increase energy and hormonal balance.
• SHATAVARI helps fight symptoms of PMS and increases libido.
• ORGANIC AMLA BERRY balances your body’s estrogen levels.
• ORGANIC BEETROOT helps fight symptoms of PMS and menopause.

 

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 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 type of changes don’t happen overnight.  Stay tuned!

Your Super Reviews: Bottom Line

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 and given me more sustainable energy in my morning (I’ve even kicked my morning black tea habit!).  I highly recommend the Energy Bomb mix to give you natural energy without the crash!

We recommend purchasing one or two, 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.
