Is either way any better or worse than the other?
Haven't been eating enough leafy greens/veggies, I'd prefer to buy a green food suplement and take with my morning smoothie. Would this be comparable to eating veggies and leafy greens?

It depends on what kind of supplement/juice your using. I juice my own vegggies per juicer that way I know there isnt any preservatives or anything else added. Ive read that your body takes in more of the nutrients, vitamins and minerals per liquid because your not having to digest the fiber. But I think the real reason is that your just giving your digestive system a break from not digesting the fiber. I think you get a balance from both. Its great to get them either way you can but for me I can get down a lot more when I juice vs eating them raw. HTH

I'm considering getting a plant based protein powder w/greens mixed in. Drinking is definitely better/easier for me.

Just purchased a plant/chia/hemp protein with greens mixed in. It's yummy!
