A 250 g tub of greens powder built from six named blends — grains, herbs, sea vegetables, fruit, cereal grasses and vegetables — for stirring into juice or smoothies.
Highlights
✓
A long list, in six blends: a grain blend (brown rice bran, “Flex” powder — most likely flax — and barley malt), a sixteen-item herbal blend, a sea-vegetable blend (spirulina, chlorella and a third item printed as “Sea Whistle”), a fruit blend, a green-grass blend (barley, kamut, oat, rye and wheat grass) and a vegetable blend with beet juice, broccoli, rhubarb and spinach, plus FOS and silica. No amounts are given for any of it.
✓
Allergen and diet flags the label does not spell out: barley malt powder is a gluten-containing grain ingredient, and wheat, rye, barley, kamut and oat grasses are on the list — so do not assume this is gluten-free (the supplier does not badge it as such). Bee pollen and royal jelly are bee products that can trigger serious allergic reactions and make this unsuitable for vegans. No written allergen statement is published.
✓
The herbal blend includes ginkgo biloba, Siberian ginseng, licorice, milk thistle, astragalus, schisandra and green tea. Several of those are widely reported to interact with medication — which is why the label’s own caution names medication and surgery (see below).
✓
Sweetened with stevia extract and flavoured as a herb, vegetable and fruit mix. Two teaspoons in 8 oz of apple juice or a smoothie is the published serving — the label points you to juice or a smoothie rather than plain water.
✓
Net weight is published separately from shipping weight: 0.55 lb (250 g) of powder against 0.67 lb (304 g) gross, which agrees with the 8.8 oz in the name.
The name says “Cleanse”, but that is a product name, not a function we can vouch for — treat this as a mixed greens, herb and fruit powder and judge it on the ingredient list. Minimo sells two capsule formulas that overlap with parts of it: Organic Beetroot Capsuled Powder (the list here includes beet juice powder) and Sea Moss with Bladderwrack and Burdock Root (the list here includes sea vegetables). The Ginkgo Biloba + Ginseng capsule also contains ginkgo (with red Asian ginseng rather than the Siberian ginseng here), so check with your clinician before taking the two together.
Minimo describes it as a nutrient blend to add to smoothies. Its marketing copy goes further, making detox, alkalising, “cleansing”, stress-adaptation and immune claims; we have not repeated any of them here. The FDA has not evaluated them and this is not a treatment for any condition. The rest of the supplements range sits alongside it.

Supplier badges mark it vegetarian, lactose-free and “no fillers”, none attributed to a named certifier. The listing carries the statement “The Food and Drug Administration has not evaluated these statements. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” Contact us and we will ask the supplier for the panel and allergen details before you order.
