IMPORTANT FOR HEALTH AND MAKES YOU FEEL AND LOOK 20 YEARS YOUNGER
Extremely important for health. And it is anti-ageing. Heals the digestive tract. This is awesome, organic, no pesticides or hormones, and we add it to soups, makes them taste better. Sprinkle it on cooked vegetables under butter and it will melt and make them taste far better. (asparagus fried in butter - ketogenic and very healthy!!!(I highly recommend the book "KETO CLARITY" - (our family went keto about a month and a half ago, we each lost 20 pounds so far and feel 20 years younger and we dont HURT when we move anymore (also because of the GELATIN which is great for building up the body and joints and into-ageing and making you look great and young!!!)Also, one of my new favorite INSANELY good recipes, is steak, cooked in olive oil with "Ninja Squirrel" Sriracha sauce (1/3 the price at whole foods), ...... serve it, there is lots of sauce. sprinkle lots of this GELATIN on the top of the served steak on teh plate. Then pour the cooked olive oil-sriracha mixture over it (that the steak cooked in). ....MMMMMMM!!!!!! What a great way to lose weight, become fat burning, FULL of energy, and feel AMAZING< look and feel 20 years younger.Also, we got a few Keto cookbooks... the 30 day Ketogenic cleanse. Great recipes!!!I pulled out our "Lodge" iron skillet (from amazon) and what i love about it is that it never has to be washed!!!!!!! I scrape it out then wipe it with a paper towel. No rinsing needed, etc.Bacon and one or two eggs in the morning.NOTE: in the GAPS diet, bone broth is very important - it heals the digestive system. It is just darn healthy. People KNEW to eat this, up until the 1050's - just like all the other wisdom that got almost wiped out in the 1950's and 1960's - when they drank canned milk and eat canned food and nothing else-eeew!! Anyway - gelatin rebuilds your cartilage - after a while you feel YOUNG!!!!!!!!!!!!! and Look young too! grest for rebuilding the colalgen in your skin, face, body, organs.I get this because i have not yet had time to make beef broth myself..... this seems a great shortcut and also an amazing cooking item that makes food taste extra great.A separate note about going KETOGENIC: it means fat burning. it is not related to other stuff that sounds like it has a similar name. it means fat burning. Anyway, when you start, a TON of yeasts and bad bacterias in your body die off by the trillions - the critters making you tired all the time and hungry all the time - and your body has to deal with eliminating them. So you have 1-2 difficult weeks (at least I did). Once you convert from burning sugar (carbs) into burning FAT, then you have ENERGY ALL THE TIME!!!! LIKE YOU ARE 20 OR 40 YEARS YOUNGER!!! And you are never hungry!!!!! It is well worth helping your body. It is your body's natural state.Speaking of fat burning VS sugar (carb) burning --- a cancer cell is a cell that does not have enough oxygen, and LOTS of sugar around it to metabolize, so it begins to metabolize sugar instead of oxygen. The cell, instead of dying, has converted the way it stays alive, in order to stay alive, It is then called a cancer cell. An Austrian doctor many decades ago won TWO NOBEL PRIZES for his work in this, which is very lengthy (oxygen/ie walking outside EVERY day without fail, and adequate water, are VITAL for health. Times 100!) I believe his last name was Warburg. Anyway, knowing that about burning sugar/carbs, VS burning fat - imagine how much healthier your body is burning fat rather than carbs. Carbs puts a terrible stress on the body - I know because i'm now one of the millions of people that has gone to fat burning and what a massive impact it has on health and energy and youth.

Quality product
Totally tasteless and great for gut-healing. Makes great gelatin blocks without all the fake colors, flavors, and white sugar.

Best quality product available at such a reasonable price.

Reasonable price for the quality
Just tried it out, the powder itself has little to no funky smell unlike the fish gelatin. Works great and does not clot up when I mixed it with cold water.

Tastes fine, but clumps into gummy chunks easily
Unlike many reviewers, I cannot taste any objectionable taste in this (Orange can, beef) gelatin. I haven't noticed a difference in my skin or hair, but my nails are splitting less and my cuticles have stopped peeling so badly. I didn't buy it for the health benefits anyway though; I bought it to add to my homemade coconut milk yogurt, to make it a thicker consistency. So I haven't been getting the recommended 2 tablespoons a day probably. It adds extra protein to the yogurt also, which is a great benefit, since coconut milk yogurt has virtually no protein on its own.I didn't notice any smell at all but then I didn't sniff at it. I also bought a can of the green collagen hydrosalate gelatin, also from Great Lakes. The only difference I can tell in them is that the orange can gels and the green can doesn't.I gave it four stars instead of five because it is pretty much impossible to get it to dissolve smoothly without making gelatinous clumps all through whatever I mix it into. I have tried warm temperatures, room temperature, hot and cool. No matter how briskly I stir it, there are always lots of large and small clumps of gummy gelatin left behind. I made the mistake of trying to add some that I had already dissolved into hot water into some cold yogurt. Oh, what a mess. I had long strings of chewy tentacles all through my yogurt. But since it's tasteless to me, I ate it anyway, telling myself it was good for me. I finally settled on pouring out about 1 1/2 cups of the warm coconut milk into a separate pan, heating that milk to a higher temperature, slowly sprinkling the gelatin over the surface a spoonful at a time, (repeat X eight spoonsful) and vigorously stirring all the while. Even then I still have to mash several small, leftover clumps against the side of the pan with a spoon.When you get beyond about 2 tablespoons per cup of hot liquid, it starts to thicken the liquid a bit. And if you leave a little liquid residue in your cup, when it gets cold the undissolved gelatin will form itself into a cup-shaped gummy mold at the bottom.All in all, I will buy it again because I need gelatin and this is the best I've found. It is a bit expensive but I hope they were telling the OP the truth when they said the cows were grass fed and finished and organic/no hormones or antibiotics. If that is indeed true, then it's worth the price. But if it IS true, shouldn't there be an indication of such on the label?I just really wish it would dissolve properly in either hot or cold liquids. Very hot water seems to work best, but I don't want to put water into my yogurt. That's the whole point of using the gelatin to begin with, to thicken it up. And I wish they would list the source (and status) of the beef they use to produce it - organic, grass fed, or not.I may update this review if I get my questions answered to my satisfaction and if I suddenly notice super great looking skin and hair, etc. I'd like to give them five stars for effort but there are still the two issues that are problematic.But I give them an excellent rating for taste and the overall quality of the product.

You are able to use the gelatin powder in many recipes dessert soups
Excellent product l was having a procedure and had to only consume clear liquids so I made a large bowl o gelatin powder mixed with plain tea it kept me full and I was able to tolerate the less than pleasant tasting prep.
