Another person will probably chime in here.
Leannekarella is watching sodium, in addition to many other ingredients for health reasons.

Yes, I'm trying to stay low sodium, but I've also gone rogue and doing mostly alternative products now BECAUSE of most everything being high sodium, and high carb, as I'm diabetic with heart condition and water retention issues...
I stick with the IP omelet pack (though now I've given those up using egg/egg whites instead of the IP pack. I also stick with the drinks.
Before going IP, I never went over 500 mg sodium a day EVER unless I was eating out. Now I can't seem to stay under 1000, which concerns my GP to no end.
What I'm doing now... I switched to using Real Egg White in the carton and one real egg instead of an omelet pack. I have ordered Syntrax medical grade whey protein and make my own soups and add the proper amount to my own low-sodium homemade veggie or chicken soups. I use Syntrax Nectar for my fruity afternoon snack drinks and use a couple flavors to mix with my morning coffee. And I use Wonder Slim or Weight Loss Systems pudding/shake mixes for my evening dessert/sweets and shakes.
For IP products, the only thing I still buy is the pre-made chocolate drinks, and the pre-made mango drinks, and I use those for my "on the go" morning drinks if I can't be at home to make a hot drink.
The diet works, but I've had to make it work around my health concerns, which I cannot do consuming their products. I love the soups...the flavors were great...but one packet a day, and I had to take an extra diuretic, and I'm not killing my kidneys for weight loss.
