Salt & Field vs Legion Genesis, Original
Comparison done September 12, 2026, from each maker’s published label and site
Ten printed amounts against four, plus a flavor system
| Salt & Field — Daily Greens and Adaptogens | Legion Genesis, Original | |
|---|---|---|
| Certified USDA Organic finished product | Yes. Seal on the jar | No. Individual ingredients are organic — spirulina, matcha, cane sugar — but the finished product carries no USDA Organic certification |
| Full label disclosure vs proprietary blends | Full disclosure. Every ingredient amount on the label | Full disclosure of the actives, and there are four: organic spirulina powder 6 g, astragalus 10:1 root extract 3 g, organic matcha leaf powder 3 g, maca root extract 4:1 1.5 g. That is 13,500 mg of a 17,000 mg serving, 79%. The remaining 3,500 mg is the flavor system, and it carries no amount |
| Price per day | $2.00 a day at $59.95, or $1.80 a day subscribed at $53.96 (two 4 g servings, 60 per jar) | $2.00 a day ($59.99 for 30 servings). Legion posts a recurring-order price too, but no primary source confirms it, so we print none |
| Servings per container | 60 (4 g; two a day = 30 days) | 30 (17 g scoop) |
| Sweetener | None. No sweetener, no flavor system | Organic cane sugar plus steviol glycosides (Reb-M and Reb-A), with natural flavors. The nutrition panel prints 2 g added sugars and 4 g total sugars |
| Guarantee | 30-day return, opened or not | 365 days, and only on a first-time purchase of a given product |
| Third-party certifications | USDA Organic (finished product) | None we could confirm, and not certified organic. Legion says Genesis is “independently certified by Labdoor”; Labdoor’s own Legion page lists fourteen certified Legion products, and Genesis is not one of them |
| Juice or whole leaf | Cold-pressed juice | Neither. Genesis contains no grass at all — its matcha is a leaf powder and its spirulina is an algae. Ours are three grass juice powders at 1,620 mg each, 4,860 mg a day, with spirulina at 1,620 mg beside them |
| Drying method / temperature | Low temperature, 106°F | Not disclosed |
| Fillers or carriers | None. Ten named ingredients, nothing else | Organic cane sugar, natural flavors, steviol glycosides (Reb-M and Reb-A). No amounts printed for any of them |
| Cost per milligram you can verify | $2.00 a day for 8,000 printed milligrams across ten ingredients, certified organic as a finished product. $0.25 per thousand you can verify. Subscribed, $1.80 a day and $0.225 per thousand | $2.00 a day for 13,500 printed milligrams — from four ingredients, none of them certified organic, alongside 2 g of added sugar. The sum can be done here. What it prices is disclosure, not what is disclosed. No primary source confirms a recurring price for Genesis, so there is no second figure to set beside our subscribed one |
Genesis names four ingredients and sweetens them. Ours names ten, certified organic as a finished product, with nothing added.

Four ingredients plus cane sugar
Legion prints an amount for each of its four actives: 6 g of organic spirulina powder, 3 g of astragalus 10:1 root extract, 3 g of organic matcha leaf powder, 1.5 g of maca root extract 4:1 — 13,500 mg of a 17 g serving. Ours is ten ingredients with ten printed amounts, certified organic as a finished product, covering 100% of the serving with nothing left over for a flavor system.
Is Legion Genesis certified organic?
No. Several ingredients are organic — the spirulina, the matcha, the cane sugar — but the finished product carries no USDA Organic certification. Daily Greens and Adaptogens is certified as a finished product, seal on the jar.
Those are different claims. “Organic ingredients” describes an input. Finished-product certification means an accredited certifier audits the whole formula, the blending facility and the paperwork, every year. Ours is certified at 98.25% organic by weight against a 95% requirement.
What about the Labdoor certification?
Legion says Genesis is independently certified by Labdoor. Labdoor’s own Legion page lists fourteen certified Legion products, and Genesis is not one of them. Both pages are public.
Two grams of added sugar
Genesis is sweetened with organic cane sugar plus steviol glycosides — Reb-M and Reb-A — and natural flavors. The nutrition panel prints 2 g of added sugars and 4 g of total sugars a serving. That is about 3,500 mg of the 17 g scoop, and it is the part of the serving that carries no amount of its own.
Ours has no sweetener and no flavor system. Nothing in the jar is there to make the rest of it go down. Every one of our 8,000 milligrams a day is an ingredient you are buying on purpose.
What Legion Genesis does well.
Legion prints an amount for each of its four actives — 13,500 mg of a 17 g serving, 79% — which is the highest disclosed share of any label compared on this site apart from this one. Its guarantee runs 365 days on a first purchase, the longest in the set. Both of the pages behind the Labdoor question above are public, and the reader can read them either way.
79% of four ingredients is a different thing from 100% of ten. Genesis names four actives and a flavour system; this panel names ten ingredients and prints an amount beside every one, certified organic as a finished product, with nothing added.
Per milligram you can actually account for
Ours is $2.00 a day for 8,000 printed milligrams, $0.25 per thousand you can verify, or $1.80 a day subscribed, $0.225 per thousand. Genesis is $2.00 a day for 13,500 printed milligrams from four ingredients, none of them certified organic, alongside 2 g of added sugar. No primary source confirms a recurring price for Genesis, so none is printed here.
Run the same sum on ours and you are pricing three grass juice powders at 1,620 mg each, spirulina at 1,620 mg, cracked-cell chlorella, three adaptogens including 300 mg of organic KSM-66, bromelain at 2400 GDU per gram, and a named probiotic strain at 2 billion CFU — certified organic as a finished product, with nothing added to make it palatable.
