---are alissa's and david wolfe's green powders the same?
they look fairly identical except that alissas has carob in it....
i think they might even be made by the same guy, dr sheridan??

i was just wondering b/c david's is more expensive and i didnt know if there was a reason WHY... something above &beyond amazing that i was missing, lol.

---so, has anyone tried either of these?
---&, does anyone have experience with how they were shipping to canada?

ive looked at greens in my various HFSs.... but im not convinced that theyre raw. :( which is too bad b/c shipping from the states is never fun.

i guess i can add another question then:

---anyone know of a good green food powder that i might be able to get in canada? im looking for one with probiotics and digestive enzymes....

cheers :)

Aliliu, I saw your post about green powders. I have been into live foods since the 70's and am a distributor of superfood supplements. We have a powder which is wild superbluegreen algae with enzymes, probiotics and wheat sprouts. Also have them separately and other great ones too...check out simplexityhealth.com/virginia or email me.

Hey, I don't have any suggestions for shipping from the USA. That's the thing I miss the most from living in the USA for 4 months: inexpensive shipping to my heart's content! :)

But here is a suggestion: are there any raw food restaurants nearby? They might order these types of products in bulk for you. For example, the raw food restaurant near me in Guelph, Ontario had some Spirulina, raw coconut oil and raw cocoa the last few times I visited. So maybe asking them to get some raw green powders isn't much of a stretch.

I've never been to BC so I don't know how many raw places there are, but if you can make a day trip to a raw restaurant (maybe call ahead to ask if they sell these things) and stock up on your powders and raw products. :)

Otherwise, order lots at the same time and bite the bullet. :/ Sorry not much else I know about.
