Have one of those organic greens, probiotic, powdered supplements, has wheat grass, algae etc. Stamped expired 9/13. Have refrigerated it for the last few months. It doesn't smell or look bad. How seriously should I take the use by date?

Don't use it much because I tend to buy protein shakes with greens in it.

I decided to google this, and not much came up...but, there was ONE article, that seemed from a reputable source...a nutritionist had written it, and it was like a FAQ. One of the questions was your exact one here, and he replied that around 3 to 4 months after the expiration date would be a good idea, to throw it away. In that interim, it's still 'safe' to eat. But, I'd probably be safe, and discard it.
