You are standing in front of two scoops, doing sums in your head. One costs a couple of dollars a day. One costs a bit more. And the label on both says something about energy and focus, so the choice looks like a price question when it is really a job question. GRNS runs from $2.05 to $2.83 per serve depending on how you buy, Hoola runs from $3.30 to $4.33 a day, and the gap reflects two different jobs: GRNS covers everyday greens and gut support, Hoola supports calm clarity, clean energy and emotional steadiness with every dose published.
GRNS lists 90 servings across three containers at $184.99, which the brand prices at $2.05 a serve. A single subscription of 30 servings sits at $75.99, or $2.53 a serve, and a one-time purchase of 30 servings is $85. Hoola on subscription is A$99 a month, which is A$3.30 a day. We built Hoola around one duality, calm clarity and energised performance, for people dealing with burnout, emotional load, stress and the need for energy that lasts. In a world that pushes intensity, we champion regulation.
Key takeaways
- GRNS lands between $2.05 and $2.83 a serve depending on the plan. Hoola sits at A$99 a month on subscription, which is A$3.30 a day.
- The price gap tracks a difference in job. Hoola is a daily wellness drink with nootropics, adaptogens, vitamins and minerals to support energy, focus and mental clarity.
- GRNS is a one-scoop greens powder built around 40+ whole-food greens, adaptogens, pre and probiotics and digestive enzymes, with 6.6B live probiotics per serve.
- Every Hoola dose is published. Hoola is a Listed Medicine on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, AUST L 508472, and anyone can look up that number on the public register and check all 27 actives.
- Adaptogens build with consistency. They may take 4 to 6 weeks for their full benefits, so give a switch that long before you judge it.
What is GRNS, and who is it built for?
GRNS is a daily greens powder for people who want broad nutritional cover in one scoop. It brings together 40+ whole-food greens, adaptogens, pre and probiotics and digestive enzymes, with one daily scoop aimed at gut, energy, focus and immunity, and 6.6B live probiotics per serve.
The serving size is 8 g, with 30 servings per container. The adaptogenic complex lists Ashwagandha Root 240 mg, Rhodiola Root 240 mg, Panax Ginseng 240 mg, Lion's Mane Mushroom 240 mg and Astragalus Root 240 mg, alongside 6.6B CFU of bioactive probiotics per serve. The brand is Australian-owned and batch-tested, with a 30-day money-back guarantee and the option to pause or cancel any time.
So the person GRNS suits is the person whose main gap is dietary. Not enough plants on the plate, a gut that needs some support, a wish for a single scoop that covers the basics.
What is Hoola, and who is it built for?
Hoola is a daily wellness drink with nootropics, adaptogens, vitamins and minerals to support energy, focus and mental clarity. It supports calm clarity, clean energy and emotional steadiness, helping you feel bright, capable and ready every day.
The product name on the form is Hoola Daily Multivitamin. It is a powder for a practical reason: a 10 g daily dose of actives does not fit a sensible capsule count, so we put it in one scoop instead of fifteen tablets. It is vegan, sugar free, gluten free, naturally flavoured, with no artificial fillers.
We built it for the wired-but-tired state. You are carrying a heavy week, your energy feels inconsistent, and you need to think clearly at 4pm as well as 9am. That is the job: calm, clarity and energy in one scoop a day.
How do GRNS and Hoola compare side by side?
They are different categories of product. GRNS is a greens and gut powder. Hoola is a listed medicine in powder form, oral, carrying AUST L 508472.
| GRNS | Hoola | |
|---|---|---|
| Format | 8 g scoop, 30 servings per container | 10 g scoop, powder, oral |
| Core build | 40+ whole-food greens, adaptogens, pre + probiotics, digestive enzymes | 27 actives: nootropics, adaptogens, vitamins and minerals |
| Probiotics | 6.6B live probiotics per serve | Not included |
| Regulatory status | Batch-tested, Australian-owned | Listed Medicine on the ARTG, AUST L 508472, start date 8 August 2025 |
| Testing claim | Every batch HASTA batch-tested, independently screened for 250+ banned substances | Manufactured in Australia by BJP Laboratories Pty Ltd, Yatala QLD, with Australian laboratory testing |
| Price per serve | $2.05 to $2.83 depending on plan | $3.30 a day on subscription |
The ARTG listing is the part worth understanding before you compare on price alone. None of AG1, IM8, TMRW or AgeMate holds an Australian ARTG listing. With Hoola, no proprietary blends, doses disclosed, and a public register you can check yourself.
How does each formula support what it promises?
Each formula backs its promise with a different mechanism. GRNS leans on greens, probiotics and berry extracts. Hoola leans on dosed adaptogens and nootropics working as one balanced serve.
GRNS points to polyphenol-rich berry extracts helping protect cells from oxidative stress, with a formula built to support cellular health, energy production and long-term vitality.
Hoola blends TGA listed nutrients, nootropics and adaptogens to support the dual state modern life asks for. Each adaptogen has a different job. Ashwagandha sits on the calm clarity side. Cordyceps is the energised performance counterpart, included for sustained, lower-key energy support through the day, where caffeine offers a short, sharp lift. enXtra works alongside caffeine to support a smoother, more sustained sense of focus, which means the caffeine dose can stay modest. Bacopa is intended for ongoing daily use, with cognitive support that builds with consistency. Caffeine sits at a measured dose so it can do its job on alertness and focus without dominating the rest of the formula, and 100 mg is roughly equivalent to one standard cup of brewed coffee.
That combination is designed to maintain and support mental concentration, focus and clarity, and to support a healthy stress response in the body. Energy without the jitter or crash. Hoola is designed as a single, balanced daily dose, not a collection of separate supplements, and the value sits in how the ingredients work together.
What exactly is in Hoola, and where can you check it?
Every ingredient is delivered at a clinically efficacious dose, and every quantity is published. Every per-serve figure is the per-gram figure times ten, and both are on the record.

You can check all of it. Hoola is a Listed Medicine on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, AUST L 508472, with an ARTG start date of 8 August 2025 and Hoola Australia Pty Ltd as sponsor. The certificate lists all 27 active ingredients with exact quantities per gram, and the register is public.
The named forms matter as much as the numbers. KSM-66 Ashwagandha is a full-spectrum root extract standardised to a minimum 5% withanolides, the most clinically studied form of Withania somnifera with more than two dozen published human trials, and the formulation's highest-dose herbal extract. BacoMind is a standardised whole-plant Bacopa extract delivering nine bioactive constituents including bacosides. enXtra is a patented, standardised Alpinia galanga rhizome extract researched for mental alertness and attention, on its own and in combination with caffeine. Vitashine supplies vegan vitamin D3 and Lyc-O-Beta supplies plant-source beta-carotene. Hoola uses active and bioavailable forms wherever possible, in line with Australian quality manufacturing standards, because minerals should work with you rather than pass straight through.
What happens when you switch from GRNS to Hoola?
The ritual changes slightly and the arc takes a few weeks. GRNS directs one heaped teaspoon, 8 g, into at least 300 ml of water, smoothies, yoghurt, juice or another liquid, once or twice daily. Hoola is one 10 g scoop stirred into 300 ml to 400 ml of cold water, once daily. Morning or early afternoon suits it best, and you want to keep it away from bedtime because of the caffeine.
Then the timeline. In week 1, most people notice smooth energy without the crash, sharper focus in the mornings, a subtle lift in mood and mental clarity, and feeling more balanced under pressure. Across weeks 2 and 3, energy holds more consistently through the day, brain fog lifts and flow comes easier, and stress feels more manageable.
Adaptogens may take 4 to 6 weeks for their full benefits, so treat the first month as the trial rather than the verdict. Think of them like strength training for your stress response: the longer you stay consistent, the more capable your system gets. Most of our customers feel the biggest benefits with consistency, not intensity. The 150 g pouch runs 15 days and exists so you can see how you feel, and the 300 g Welcome Box covers 30 days on subscription.
Who should choose GRNS and who should choose Hoola?
Choose GRNS if your gap is dietary. Choose Hoola if your gap is capacity.
GRNS makes sense when your plate is short on plants, your gut wants pre and probiotic support, and you want digestive enzymes and 40+ whole-food greens in one scoop. It also carries an adaptogenic complex and is formulated to help support your brain's response to stress and mental load.
Hoola is for someone looking to support their body and mind with a premium multivitamin: someone who wants more out of life, more balance, more adventure and more support. It is a supplement for modern lives, busy schedules and high ambition, helping people feel bright, steady in mind, clear in thought and energised in action. We built it around calm clarity and energised performance, for people dealing with burnout, emotional load, stress and the need for energy that lasts. For people who want to perform without the crash.
Some people run both. They answer different questions.
What does each option cost per day in Australia?
Hoola costs A$3.30 a day on subscription, A$4.17 a day at $125 for a 30 day supply, and A$4.33 a day at $65 for the 15 day 150 g pouch. GRNS costs $2.05 a serve on its 90-serving plan, $2.09 on the double subscription, $2.53 on the single subscription, and $2.83 on a one-time 30-serving purchase.
| Option | Price | Per serve or per day |
|---|---|---|
| GRNS 90-Day Subscription, 90 servings | $184.99 | $2.05 per serve |
| GRNS Double Subscription, 60 servings | $125.99 | $2.09 per serve |
| GRNS Single Subscription, 30 servings | $75.99 | $2.53 per serve |
| GRNS One Time Purchase, 30 servings | $85 | $2.83 per serve |
| Hoola subscription | A$99 per month | A$3.30 a day |
| Hoola 30 day supply | A$125 | about A$4.17 a day |
| Hoola 150 g pouch, 15 days | A$65 | about A$4.33 a day |
The Hoola subscription takes 20% off RRP and adds a free welcome pack valued at $70, which brings the monthly price to $99. That pack includes a glass drink bottle, a stainless canister and a scoop, and the plan carries free shipping every month, VIP offers and no lock-in.
Put the price beside the alternative and it reads differently. Buying these ingredients separately runs to 20+ supplements, over $250 a month in separate products and 15+ capsules a day. Hoola is just $3.30 a day on subscription. One scoop. One glass of cold water. One less thing to think about.

Frequently asked questions
Is GRNS good value at its per-serve price?
Yes, for what it sets out to do. At $184.99 for 90 servings, GRNS works out at $2.05 a serve, which is a low price for a daily greens scoop. You get 40+ whole-food greens, adaptogens, pre and probiotics and digestive enzymes, with 6.6B live probiotics per serve. If greens and gut coverage is the outcome you want, that price does the job. If you want published doses of nootropics and adaptogens for focus and stress under one ARTG listing, that is a different product with a different price.
Where can you buy GRNS in Australia?
Online, direct from the brand's own site. GRNS sells Australia-wide through ecommerce, ABN 64678991145, founded 2025. The purchase options listed are a single subscription of 30 servings at $75.99 or $2.53 a serve, a double subscription of 60 servings at $125.99 or $2.09 a serve, and a one-time purchase of 30 servings delivered once at $85. Hoola sells direct at heyhoola.com.
What is the cheapest way to buy a daily greens or performance scoop?
For Hoola, the subscription at A$99 a month, which is A$3.30 a day. Buying a 30 day supply outright is A$125, about A$4.17 a day, so the subscription saves you the difference every month and adds the welcome pack. For GRNS, the longer plans carry the lower per-serve price.
How do you take GRNS powder, and how does that compare with Hoola?
GRNS is one heaped teaspoon, 8 g, into at least 300 ml of water, smoothies, yoghurt, juice or your preferred liquid, once or twice daily. Hoola is one 10 g scoop into 300 ml to 400 ml of cold water, each morning. There is no half serve, no double serve and no weekly total with Hoola. One 10 g scoop a day, every day.
Do you need a discount code to get the lower price?
No. The subscription applies the 20% discount automatically and brings the price to $99 per month, plus a free welcome pack valued at $70. The plan includes a glass drink bottle, a stainless canister and a scoop, 20% off RRP, free shipping every month, VIP offers and no lock-in.
Are both products made in Australia?
Both are Australian at the source. GRNS states it is Australian-owned and batch-tested, with a 30-day money-back guarantee and the option to pause or cancel any time. Hoola is manufactured in Australia by BJP Laboratories Pty Ltd in Yatala, Queensland, with Australian laboratory testing, and it is a Listed Medicine on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, AUST L 508472, with an ARTG start date of 8 August 2025 and Hoola Australia Pty Ltd as sponsor.
Are greens powders a waste of money?
No, provided the product matches the outcome you want. A greens powder fills a dietary gap: greens, gut support, daily nutrients, with GRNS describing cover across energy, skin, gut and vital organ care. Money goes to waste when you buy a product for a job it was never built to do. We designed Hoola as a single, balanced daily dose, not a collection of separate supplements, and the value sits in how the ingredients work together. Read the labels, check the doses, and match the scoop to the outcome. More on how we think about it over on the Hoola blog.
