Food was a day late, not very cold when it arrived, salads already wilted. Had to call to request tracking number and status. Food was very carb heavy and processed compared to what I expected. Very bland, and not much nuance to the texture. Canned chick peas for your breakfast hummus? For being a fresh plan, I expected much much more in terms of quality.

The food did not look appetizing, it looked like it was thrown together. There is an ingredient list, but it’s not written with the name of the meal. You have to look for it. The breakfast bread was good, however the other meals had a lot of potatoes, which weren’t very good. Also, didn’t realize potatoes would be on longevity diet. The salads were wilted, the chips were never crunchy. I loved the concept to follow up after doing prolon, but I was pretty disappointed that the meals weren’t the same standard as prolon:(

Hi Laura, We are so sorry to disappoint you. It saddens us to hear that we did not live up to your expectations. Your meals ingredients along with the nutrition label and heating instructions are on the back of the cardboard sleeve that your meals are contained in. We include potatoes because they are found in the Longevity Regions. We truly apologize that you did not enjoy this item. We appreciate your feedback and apologize again for letting you down.

While the food provided was good, I was disappointed to receive a mystery protein powder and intermittent fasting bars to complete the daily menu. I did not try the service in order to substitute processed meal replacement items for healthy, natural, whole foods. I am quite certain no one from the blue zones is eating bars and powders.

I really was not impressed with the meals from nutrition for longevity. The price is high, as anyone can see, but the food is loaded with carbs, and many of the meals don’t have much flavor at all. Some of them were OK, but more than half of them were absolutely flavorless and needed to have additional ingredients added in order to make them edible. I only purchased one was not interested in subscribing further.

Hi Aleppo, I am so sorry to hear that you were not impressed. We completely understand your concerns regarding carbs! We source the inspiration for our meal kits from the "Longevity Regions" which are areas in the world where people live the longest! Carbs were known to be a staple in the diet! Good thing these are simple carbohydrates which are an important source of nutrients for the body, are healthy and fast burning. All of the carbohydrates in our meal kit are whole foods high in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Fiber is one of the most under consumed nutrients in the Standard American Diet (SAD). Fiber doesn't provide calories, keeps you feeling fuller longer and feeds healthy gut bacteria.

Concept is good. I really wanted to like this service because I thought it would be a good way to stay on track with my nutrition. The food was just not good.

The order was advertised as a Wednesday order but did not get to us until Thursday night, so we had to last minute find meals for 2 nights. The packaging cooking instructions is VAGUE! Needs to be more clear and specific. The first nights meal was missing the dressing thought it referred to it 😢. The instructions to cook the shrimp were way off - 10 minutes much too long. Breakfast tacos had tortillas with mold on them! Really the only good meal was the lunch that had the noodles and salad. Very disappointed, especially if there is a Michelin chef involved! I am currently a Sunbasket client (which is pretty good AND much more affordable) and have tried ALL the others. Longevity is the most disappointing of all. I will not order again, sadly and I was willing to spend $$ on this meal delivery service.

I was displeased with the lack of communication and tracking information after I placed my order, when it arrived I was unimpressed with the amount of packaging and most of the food looked unappealing; and ultimately, much of it was bland or perhaps more accurately, was not seasoned to my taste. Overall, I should have done more research.
