I had no idea until recently that I’d been using Genuine Health products for years. Greens+ Kids has been a mainstay in our fridge since The K Man was a toddler; around here, it’s called “Magic Juice.” But that’s not all the brand makes. Let me tell you more…
Genuine Health Fast Pain Relief+
When I broke my ankle last summer, some smart cookie at Genuine Health’s PR agency reached out to see if I’d like to try a bottle of its natural pain reliever, Fast Pain Relief+, and its Fast Joint Care+ with Fermented Tumeric. My first inclination is always to go natural before introducing over-the-counter or prescription medication. I’ll stave off a cold with oil of oregano, heal bruises with arnica or use vitamin E on a cut, but I was pretty clueless about natural pain care.
Gluten-free, non-GMO and soy-free, Fast Pain Relief+ is a bit of a wonder drug. It’s made with a proprietary ingredient called Biovaflex, which is egg membrane — giving your body the nutrients essential for proper joint health and important proteins like collagen and elastin. It also has Devil’s Claw and White Willow Bark; the former is proven to work well to relieve back pain and the latter works in your body like Aspirin, only better.
Tumeric is one of those miracle spices. And one of its medicinal properties is as an anti-inflammatory. You’d be hard-pressed to consume enough tumeric on your own, much less find fermented tumeric, so concentrated into these capsules the way Genuine Health presents it is the way to go.
It’s hard to say whether or not these products helped get me back on my foot any faster, but they did help with pain relief. In fact, I still take the Fast Pain Relief+ when I get a headache and it works as well as Tylenol or Advil for me.
Genuine Health Greens+ Kids
This one probably doesn’t need much of an introduction because the Greens+ line might be Genuine Health’s most recognized product, that you have no idea is actually from Genuine Health! The kids’ version is the only one we’ve ever had, and my kids love it. We aren’t a big fan of giving them juice, and they have no idea that when I mix a scoop of Greens+ Kids powder with half a cup of water that it isn’t actually juice. SUCKERS!
Featuring superfoods and ingredients rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants, Greens+ products pass both the flavour and nutrition test in our house.
Genuine Health Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+
This product really surprised me. I’ve taken probiotics on and off enough over the years to know the importance of gut health and the role that fermented foods play in it. But I’d never had a PREbiotic or found a flavoured probiotic that I’ve enjoyed — until this one. I had the Orange Ginger flavour and it has a very distinct orange zing to it. When I mix it with my Arbonne chocolate protein powder each morning, it tastes like a liquid version of Terry’s Chocolate Orange!
In case you’re wondering, probiotics are the good bacteria and keep your gut in good health, while prebiotics are healthy carbs that the human body can’t digest — they feed the probiotics.
There are 21 organic plant-based superfoods — such as organic spirulina, organic black currant, organic sea buckthorn and organic bitter melon — in the Genuine Health Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+. One scoop delivers polyphenols, bloat-free prebiotic fibre and vegan-friendly nourishment. If we go out for a “cheat meal” on a Saturday night, it’s a must for me to have a healthy smoothie on Sunday morning with this stuff.

I love Genuine Health products and have been using their greens+ extra energy and their multi+ JOY for years now. Once my current protein powder is finished I plan on incorporating the fermented protein as well as the fermented superfoods into my diet. I had no idea about the fast pain relief, I just broke my wrist and I think I will go get some of these now – TODAY lol. Genuine Health is for sure my most trusted go to brand out there.

Until I started taking probiotics, I could not tolerate dairy in any form. I still can’t have straight milk and avoid it, but with the assistance of probiotics, I can somehow enjoy cheese, ice cream and dairy in baked goods without issue. I’d be excited to try the Genuine Health Fermented Organic Gut Superfoods+. After all, gut health has been linked to mental health too!

The SuperFoods tub sounds really good! I’ve heard of spirulina and read a little bit about it but then totally forgot about it until reading your post. Quick question, are the products safe to take if you are pregnant? I assume they would be but it’s always best to ask first. Thanks for the chance!

Jay Nelson says
We sometimes dose ourselves with probiotics but with some recent reading my husband did we have come to learn we need to do more with our prebiotics. We tend to eat a lot of bran which I understand is hard on the probiotics so we need to do our best with prebiotics. My husband and one of my children have gut problems and a healthy eco-system is part of our helping as best as we can. Thank you (I would also love to slip more greens into the children’s diet – particularly my son’s.

Cathy Oppedisano says
I have not tried these particular products but I would love to try them. I used to try to cook with turmeric many years ago but never did like the taste it imparted to the dish. Most recently however, I tried a sample of a new turmeric tea at my health food store and they somehow made it taste so yummy with a touch of sweetness to it that I’m going to reconsider turmeric all together.

I take antibiotics to treat late stage Lyme disease and need probiotics to protect my gut. I am sure prebiotics wouldn’t hurt. Any pain relief would be great too. Tumeric has been a great ally in fighting joint pain for me so I am open to trying new products that contain it.

Gosh, I am so sorry to hear you’re saddled with Lyme. 🙁
