AG1 Next Gen Review: What You Get for $2.30 to $3.60 a Scoop

The real-world routine

AG1 Next Gen is a powder. You stir one level 13 g scoop, or one travel pack, into 8 to 10 ounces of cold water and drink it. It comes in Original, Citrus and Berry. Each scoop has 40 calories, 2 g of fiber, 2 g of protein and less than 1 g of sugar. It is sweetened with stevia leaf extract, not sugar.

One habit to plan for: AG1 says the pouch holds live probiotics and must go in the fridge after you open it. If your fridge is already full, the travel packs are easier.

What is in the scoop

The label lists 24 vitamins and minerals with amounts and a Daily Value. Eleven of them reach 100% or more. Vitamin B12 is the eye-catcher at 400 mcg, which the label shows as 16,667% of the Daily Value. Zinc is 20 mg, half the 40 mg adult upper limit that NIH lists.

After that come three blends: a 7.5 g superfood and prebiotic complex, a 1.5 g phytonutrient complex and a probiotic blend with 10 billion viable cells from five named strains. Every ingredient is named, but the amount of each herb, green or mushroom inside a blend is not. So you know ashwagandha and rhodiola are in there, but not how much.

The breakdown: what it costs

AG1 is not cheap. The 90-day subscription is $207, about $2.30 a scoop. The 30-day subscription is $79, about $2.63 a scoop. Buying one pouch with no subscription is $99 plus $9 shipping, about $3.60 a scoop. Over a year of daily scoops that is roughly $828 on the 90-day plan against $1,296 buying one pouch at a time. AG1 says subscribers can pause or cancel anytime, and it offers a 90-day money-back guarantee.

AG1 says one scoop replaces your multivitamin, probiotic and more. If that is true for you, add up what you spend on those now before you compare. Our calculator does the math.

Testing and the study claims

AG1 is NSF Certified for Sport and says it is third party tested for purity and potency. The product page also shows a Light Labs test from March 2026 covering 53 substances. That is more outside testing than most powders show.

The benefit claims need a closer look. AG1 says that in a 3-month study, 80% of people felt their digestion improved at two weeks and 85% felt more energy at one month. That study had a single arm, which means no placebo group to compare against, and it measured how people felt. It is a reason to be curious, not proof.

Who should check first

• Warfarin users: AG1 has 90 mcg of vitamin K2, and NIH says people on warfarin need steady vitamin K intake.
• Blood work coming up: 330 mcg of biotin can throw off some lab tests, per NIH. Tell your lab.
• Already on a multivitamin: zinc and niacin add up fast. Check the overlap before taking both.
• Pregnant or nursing: ask your doctor, since the herbal blend amounts are not listed.
• Soy allergy: the label says it contains soy.

The verdict

AG1 Next Gen is a well-tested, easy daily habit with a clear label for its vitamins and minerals. It makes the most sense for someone who would otherwise buy a multivitamin and a probiotic separately and wants one step. It makes less sense on a tight budget, for anyone who already takes a full multivitamin, or for people who want exact amounts of every herb. If you try it, the 90-day plan is the cheapest way in, and the money-back guarantee lowers the risk.
