You've seen the ads. Real fruits, real veggies, in a capsule — "the easy way to get your produce." It sounds like the shortcut every busy person wants.

So before you hand over $89.99 a month, here's the question that matters: how much of each fruit and vegetable are you actually getting?

We checked the label, the price math, the FDA docket and the court records to find out. The answer is the reason this product scores 35 out of 100 — and it's something the commercials never mention.

At a glance

35 / 100
All 31 ingredients named with plant parts — better than many labels No sweeteners, fillers or added vitamins claimed; unflavored capsules, no mixing Not one ingredient amount disclosed — you can't know what a serving provides 2023 federal consent decree: alleged disease claims + manufacturing violations $3.00/day ($1,095/yr) — several times the cost of disclosed-amount alternatives No verifiable third-party testing documentation we could locate

Quick verdict

Balance of Nature Fruits & Veggies is exactly what it claims — powdered fruits and vegetables, each plant part named on the label. That's where the transparency ends. No capsule quantity survives the two questions that decide if a supplement is worth your money: how much? and says who? The label won't tell you how much of anything you're getting, and we could not locate verifiable testing documentation for any of it.

The trust issue is bigger: a 2019 FDA warning letter, a November 2023 federal consent decree over disease claims and manufacturing violations, and a $9.95 million class-action settlement covering six years of purchases. This product may still make sense for you if capsule-format produce is worth $3.00 a day and disclosed amounts don't matter to you. For everyone else: keep your $90 until you've seen a label that shows its numbers.

May suit you if

  • You want produce powder in capsules and you'd never mix a green drink — convenience is your deciding factor
  • You value a short, clean ingredient list: whole-food powders, no sweeteners, no added vitamins
  • You need gluten-free and vegan-friendly by label claim

Skip it if

  • You want to know how much of each ingredient you're taking — this label will never tell you
  • You expect testing documentation you can actually verify before you swallow something daily
  • $3.00 a day matters to you — that's a produce-aisle budget, not a capsule budget

Key findings

01The label names all 31 ingredients and their plant parts — then discloses no individual amounts. You cannot determine how much apple, kale or anything else a serving provides.
02In November 2023, a federal court entered consent decrees against the product's distributor and manufacturer after the government alleged disease-treatment claims (including cancer and COVID-19) and manufacturing-practice violations. Production was halted until compliance conditions were met.
03At $89.99 per 30-day set ($3.00/day, ~$1,095/year), this is among the most expensive products we have evaluated in the category.
04A $9.95 million class-action settlement covering purchases from March 2019 through October 2025 alleged deceptive labeling and marketing practices; the fairness hearing was held in March 2026.

The $90 question: how much produce fits in six capsules?

Here's the full ingredient list. Fruits capsules — 16 ingredients: aloe vera (leaf), apple, banana, wild blueberry, sweet cherry, cranberry, grape, grapefruit, lemon, mango, orange, papaya, pineapple, raspberry, strawberry and tomato. Veggies capsules — 15: broccoli, red cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, cayenne pepper, celery, garlic, kale, red onion, shiitake mushroom, soybean, spinach, sweet potato, wheatgrass and zucchini. Naming every plant part is genuinely better labeling than many competitors manage.

Now the arithmetic the label avoids. It never states how much of any ingredient — or even how much total powder — a serving contains. But physics sets a ceiling: standard capsules hold well under a gram of powder each, so a three-capsule serving tops out around two to three grams, split across 15 or 16 ingredients. Divide it out and you're looking at fractions of a gram per plant.

For scale: U.S. dietary guidance describes daily fruit and vegetable intake in hundreds of grams. Research on produce consumption has examined whole foods at those levels; that research does not establish that a few grams of encapsulated powder produces the same result.

Credit where due — no added vitamins, no sweeteners, no fillers claimed. The formula is honest to its concept: powdered produce, nothing else. But without amounts, you cannot evaluate whether a single ingredient is present at a level research has ever examined. That's the core failure, and it's why dosage transparency scores 6 of 20.

The court records most reviews skip

The current product page states no third-party testing, no certification program, no documentation. Independent reviewers previously reported a "third-party tested" claim on the company's website with no locatable documentation — the claim was later removed. As of July 12, 2026, we could not verify a single published certificate of analysis for this product.

Then there's the paper trail. August 2019: FDA warning letter to Evig LLC, the company behind Balance of Nature. November 16, 2023: a federal court entered consent decrees against Evig LLC and its manufacturer, Premium Production LLC, after the government alleged the products were marketed with claims of treating or preventing cancer, heart disease, cirrhosis, diabetes, asthma and COVID-19 — and that both firms violated current good manufacturing practice requirements, including failing to establish ingredient and product specifications. The decrees forced a production halt until compliance conditions were met, required hiring manufacturing-practice experts and, for Evig, a labeling expert. Separately, a $9.95 million class-action settlement covering purchases from March 28, 2019 through October 27, 2025 alleged deceptive manufacturing, labeling and marketing practices.

To be fair to the current product: the companies met the conditions required to resume operating, and a consent decree is a compliance mechanism, not a finding that today's bottles are unsafe. But our methodology scores what a company demonstrates. Verifiable testing: absent. Documented compliance history: extensive. This category scores 4 of 20.

Capsule experience

We have not yet independently tested this product, so this section reports company statements and recurring customer-reported themes rather than our own observations. The format is unflavored capsules — no mixing, no taste, which some users genuinely prefer over powdered greens drinks. The daily serving is six capsules across two bottles, a real capsule burden; customer feedback across retail listings and complaint boards recurringly mentions capsule size. We will update this section when we test the product ourselves.

The math: $3.00 a day vs. the produce aisle

$89.99 ÷ 30 days = $3.00 per day. Kept up for a year, that's roughly $1,095. The Plus membership ($24.99/year) returns 10% in rewards and free shipping on qualifying orders — at best that brings you to about $2.77 a day including the fee.

Two comparisons put that in perspective. Against the category: many fruit-and-vegetable and greens products with fully disclosed amounts sell for $1.00–$2.00 per serving. Against actual food: $3.00 buys a meaningful pile of real produce — bananas, carrots, frozen berries and spinach all cost less per hundred grams than this product does per few grams of powder. You'd be paying capsule-convenience prices without knowing what's in the capsules. Value scores 4 of 15.

Returns and membership

As of July 12, 2026, the product page promotes the Plus membership's "no-rush returns," but we could not locate a clearly published, unconditional money-back guarantee with stated terms on the current site. Better Business Bureau complaint records include recurring themes around subscription billing and cancellation. If you buy, get the current return window and cancellation process in writing before you subscribe. We'll update this section if the company publishes clearer terms.

How we handle customer feedback

We don't fact-check or verify individual customer reviews — reviewers' opinions and experiences are their own, and we never treat them as evidence that a product works or doesn't. What we do: read feedback at scale across named platforms, report only the themes that recur, and link the live sources so you can judge the raw material yourself.

Every factual claim on this page that is ours — prices, label contents, regulatory records — carries a checked date and a source. Spot an error? Tell us and we'll correct it under our corrections policy.

What to buy instead

We won't name a third-party winner we haven't scored — that's how the sites you shouldn't trust do it. Here's the three-point checklist that would have saved every disappointed subscriber we read this week: (1) the label states the amount of every ingredient per serving; (2) testing documentation is published and verifiable — a named program or downloadable certificates, not a badge; (3) the cost lands under roughly $2 per serving. Scored reviews of category alternatives are in progress and will be linked here as they publish.

Final assessment

Balance of Nature Fruits & Veggies is a simple concept executed with real ingredients and minimal transparency, sold at a premium price by a company with a documented regulatory history. The 35/100 reflects significant concerns — driven by undisclosed amounts, absent verifiable testing and weak value, not by any evidence the product is unsafe. If capsule-format produce is worth $3.00 a day to you, the ingredient list itself is clean. Everyone else: spend a third of that on a product that shows its amounts and its testing — or spend it in the produce aisle. Individual needs and results vary; if you're considering supplements for a health condition, talk with your healthcare provider first.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Balance of Nature cost per month?

As of July 12, 2026, the Fruits & Veggies set costs $89.99 for a 30-day supply on the company's website — $3.00 per day, about $1,095 per year. A separate Plus membership ($24.99 per year) adds 10% rewards and free shipping on qualifying orders.

Does Balance of Nature disclose ingredient amounts?

No. The label names 16 fruit and 15 vegetable ingredients with their plant parts, but does not disclose the amount of any individual ingredient per serving.

Is Balance of Nature FDA approved?

No dietary supplement is FDA approved. In November 2023, a federal court entered consent decrees against Balance of Nature's distributor (Evig LLC) and manufacturer (Premium Production LLC) after the government alleged unapproved disease-treatment claims and manufacturing-practice violations. The companies were required to halt production until they met compliance conditions, and later resumed sales.

Can Balance of Nature replace eating fruits and vegetables?

A six-capsule serving physically contains only a few grams of powder, while dietary guidelines describe daily fruit and vegetable intake in hundreds of grams. Encapsulated powder cannot replicate the fiber, water and volume of whole produce, and individual needs vary.
