Spirulina, Turmeric, and Ginger: What Do the Ingredients in Pure Greens™ Do?

Spirulina, Kurkuma und Ingwer: Was bewirken die Zutaten in Pure Greens™?

By Rebuilt Performance Team · May 7, 2026 · 8 minutes reading time

Greens powders are no longer niche products. They have become a fixed part of many dietary routines in recent years – and for good reason. But while many products advertise long ingredient lists and exotic names, the question arises: what is really inside, and what role do the individual ingredients play? With Pure Greens™, we have deliberately focused on a thoughtful composition that is more than just a random collection of green ingredients. In this article, we take a detailed look at the main components of our formula and explain why exactly this combination ends up in your glass.

Pure Greens™ combines plant extracts, vitamins, minerals, and fiber in a convenient daily portion. Each ingredient was carefully selected – not because of a trend, but because of its specific properties and the role it can play in a balanced diet. From spirulina to turmeric to green leafy vegetables: here you will learn what distinguishes these ingredients and how they work together.

Spirulina: The nutrient-rich microalgae powder

Spirulina is a blue-green microalgae that grows in alkaline waters and has been used as a food source for centuries. Its distinctive feature is the high protein content – it consists of about 60–70% protein and provides all essential amino acids. This makes it especially interesting for people who want to meet their protein needs through plant-based sources.

In addition, spirulina contains a variety of micronutrients, including B vitamins, iron, magnesium, and the characteristic pigments phycocyanin and chlorophyll. Spirulina helps you feel more energetic.(1) and supports the body's vitality(2)These properties make the microalgae a valuable part of a nutrient-rich diet, especially when fresh vegetables are lacking in everyday life.

In Pure Greens™, we use high-quality spirulina powder, which is gently dried to preserve the delicate nutrients. The intense green color of the powder is a direct testament to the high chlorophyll content – and an indicator of quality.

Vitamin C and Zinc: The classic micronutrient duo

While many greens powders rely solely on plant extracts, we have specifically enriched Pure Greens™ with vitamin C and zinc. Both micronutrients play important roles in the body and perfectly complement the plant-based components.

Vitamin C is water-soluble and is not stored by the body – therefore, regular intake is advisable. It helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.(3) and supports normal energy metabolism(4). Additionally, vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system(8), which can be especially relevant during the winter months or under increased stress.

Zinc is an essential trace element involved in numerous enzymatic processes. It contributes to the normal function of the immune system(9) and supports normal cognitive function(10). Many people do not meet their recommended zinc intake through diet alone, especially with vegetarian or vegan diets. The combination with vitamin C in Pure Greens™ provides a meaningful supplement that integrates seamlessly into everyday life.

Chicory root: Fiber for digestion

Chicory root is best known to many as a coffee substitute, but its nutritional significance goes far beyond that. It is a natural source of inulin, a prebiotic fiber that serves as food for beneficial bacteria in the gut.

Inulin is not digested in the small intestine; it reaches the large intestine and is fermented there by the gut flora. This process can contribute to the health of the digestive system. Chicory supports digestion and stimulates the production of digestive juices(7), making it a valuable addition to a greens powder.

Many people do not reach the recommended daily amount of fiber—especially when whole grains, legumes, and vegetables are lacking in their daily diet. The chicory root in Pure Greens™ provides an additional contribution and supports a fiber-rich diet without the need for extra capsules or powders.

Turmeric and ginger: The spicy component

Turmeric and ginger are among the best-known spices in traditional cuisine and have been valued in various cultures for thousands of years. Both roots bring not only flavor but also specific bioactive compounds.

Turmeric, also known as curcuma, owes its intense yellow color to curcumin, a secondary plant compound. Turmeric helps support normal liver function(6), which is especially relevant in the context of a balanced diet. In Pure Greens™, we use turmeric extract to ensure consistent quality and concentration.

Ginger, on the other hand, is known for its spiciness, which is due to gingerols. Ginger helps support digestion and contributes to the normal function of the digestive tract(5)Together with chicory root, ginger forms a meaningful combination for anyone who values healthy digestion.

Both roots complement the Pure Greens™ formula not only functionally but also in terms of taste: they give the powder a pleasant, slightly spicy note that softens the otherwise often dominant grassy flavor of many greens products.

Green leafy vegetables & grasses: spinach, broccoli, wheatgrass, barley grass, and purple cabbage leaves

The core of many greens formulations is green leafy vegetables and grasses. They provide a wide range of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and secondary plant compounds. In Pure Greens™, we rely on a well-thought-out mix of spinach, broccoli, wheatgrass, barley grass, and purple cabbage leaves.

Spinach is rich in iron, folate, vitamin K, and magnesium. It is one of the most nutrient-dense vegetables and is especially concentrated in dried form. Spinach fits perfectly into a plant-based diet and provides valuable micronutrients in a compact form.

Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable and contains not only vitamin C but also sulforaphane, a secondary plant compound that receives a lot of attention in nutritional science. Broccoli powder is made from dried florets and retains many of the original nutrients.

Wheatgrass and barley grass are young grasses harvested before the ears form. They are especially rich in chlorophyll and contain numerous enzymes, amino acids, and minerals. Both grasses are often consumed as juice, but in powdered form, they are more practical and have a longer shelf life. Their fresh, slightly sweet taste is characteristic and gives Pure Greens™ its typical green note.

Purple cabbage leaves (often also called red cabbage or purple cabbage) not only add color but also anthocyanins – natural pigments found in many purple and red vegetables. They complete the plant base and provide an even broader nutrient profile.

This combination of leafy greens and grasses forms the green foundation of Pure Greens™ and ensures that you get a variety of plant-based nutrients with every serving – even on days when fresh vegetables are missing from your plate.

Frequently asked questions about the ingredients in Pure Greens™

Why was this particular combination of ingredients chosen?
