Product Line Review: Terra Origins


What'sup - plement?

Please excuse my corny pun intro and allow me to introduce you to Terra Origins line of supplements.

I really like this brand because they combine science-backed solutions with ancient, natural traditions to create products that support a healthy life and longevity. It usually seems like science and holistic health are at odds, but I don't think that's true and Terra Origins proves that. They use high quality ingredients and 100% guarantee for free returns.

They offer: Bone Broth Protein Powders (Chocolate, Vanilla), Superfoods Powders (Mint, Coffee, Kiwi Strawberry, Coconut), Grass-fed Whey Protein Powders (Chocolate, Vanilla, Cinnamon), Plant Protein (Chocolate, Vanilla, Vanilla Chai), and several Supplement Capsules.

Obviously, I could not try ALL these supplements, but I did try

 Chocolate Bone Broth Protein
100 cal 2f/19p/2f

I was very intrigued by this product because I've never tried bone broth protein before but I am on board with the benefits of bone broth - gut health, bone health, immune function, joint comfort, etc. But what does it taste like? It didn't taste like bone broth, thank goodness! I blended it with half a frozen banana, ice and some water for some chocolate protein sludge. It didn't fluff up as other protein powders I have used do, so it may not be the best choice for my protein fluff recipe. The chocolate flavor was unique. I can't quite put my finger on it - it was almost hot chocoaltey? It wasn't overly sweet chocolatey but I enjoyed it! Good flavor and quality ingredients!

Cinnamon Whey Protein Powder
130c cal 1.5f/5c/24p

They use whey sourced from 100% grass fed cows, utilizing both whey isolate and concentrate to support and promote muscle tissue repair and building. There are no fillers here! I tried it in my iconic protein fluff and it worked great. I'm a sucker for cinnamon, so I really enjoyed this flavor. I think this is a great choice for a whey protein!


Healthy Sleep Supplement

This capsule has the key ingredients: melatonin, L-Tryptaphan, and GABA to promote a healthy sleep-wake cycle with calmness before bed. I have trouble sleeping so I was excited to try this. Sleep is so important for your overall health! I took this for a few nights instead of the plain melatonin I had been taking. To be perfectly honest, I noticed absolutely nothing. Nada. That's not to say this supplement won't work for someone else, it just didn't seem to work for me.

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don...
