Lonolife broth

I noticed they discussed the ingredients and the health label but didn't mention sodium. I have a feeling it was high. That's the killer for me.

I tried it about a year ago. It was the reduced sodium chicken option. Thought it was absolutely terrible. Unexplainable taste, just a mouthful of awful!

@sarahpanda

I tried these about a year and a 1/2 ago to help with a 10lb weight loss for a reunion.

Worked well at 50 calories, 10grams collagen protein and I have no issues with sodium.

Savory is my go to vs sweets for the most part and I enjoy the taste of the beef.

Did notice a good change in my skin, hair and nails. Also had an ankle break after drinking it daily for 6 months prior and the break healed in 5 weeks; not sure if the collagen protein had anything to do with it or not.

Have never had a break before so don't have a comparison regarding healing for myself.

And 550 was the LOWEST amount of sodium in the flavors available today. Others were 700. I am so glad the reviews are available so i was able to stop myself from impulse purchasing this item. It just sounds like it should be so healthy, but that's too much sodium. I guess that is what helps the taste, although several reviews said it tasted horrible.

I did and it tastes awful I went back to Lipton soup in a cup or the cubes. Threw in trash.

Local grocery store carries this at half the price the Q charges. Bought it once--it is simply awful tasting. Tastes like swamp water. Yuk. The hosts and brand ambassador who rave about how wonderful this foul tasting broth is are not truthful. The reviews say it all.

While I understand the concept of this product, I will pass on it. Does not look appealing in any of the presentations.

I purchase the Kirkland (Costco) Organic Chicken sipping bone broth. It has 9 grams of protein and only 95 mg of sodium per serving.

I was interested in this product until I read all the horrible reviews.

I do not get the whole 'bone broth' fad. It's nothing special, people! It's the way stock has always been made, & is as easy as 1,2,3.

For chicken stock, pick the meat from a Costco $4.99 rotisserie chicken, & throw the rest of the shebang into a pot, pour in some water, onion, carrot celery & a bay leaf, slap on a lid and simmer.

It's free, & you control the sodium.

I don't really get the bone broth fad either. Now, I never cook whole chickens and I'm also not going to buy a rotisserie chicken just to make chicken stock. At Thanksgiving, I noticed the broth I did had was expired. So, the other day at the grocery store, I see this Lonolife bone broth and figured, if anything, it might be a richer-tasting broth. And since it was powdered, it would be easy to keep on-hand if I needed broth.

I decided to mix one up and drink it. I've had just regular broth before, so I was expecting something similar. This stuff was awful, and I was thinking if this is what bone broth tastes like, I want nothing to do with that.

So, tell me, are other bone broths better-tasting? BTW, it was the Chicken and had 700 mg of sodium. I'm not watching my sodium though. I still have what's left and I went to check and see if, by chance, it was the same brand.

LOL, @Icegoddess, I don't purchase rotisserie chicken w/ making 'bone broth' the sole intent.

I just can't bear to waste anything!

@sabatini , I get it. I just never buy rotisserie chickens. Usually, I'll just buy boneless chicken breasts or chicken tenders depending on what I'm doing. DH is not into leftovers so much, so I end up having to eat them all if we have them. I also don't often cook meals where I actually need chicken broth, which is why I just like to have some on hand, just in case.

@katie1859 Tried it a few years ago. Absolutely disgusting taste, could not stand more than 2 sips and into the GARBAGE it went. I also learned when considering food items from qvdc to always look online at the nutrition info label. They often claim foods are healthy when they are actually loaded with bad stuff, in this case you are right. Very high sodium. Also every food item that i ordered that was suppose to be frozen was thawed upon arrival to my door. Needless to say, i do not purchase any food items from q anymore. Never again.
