Sorry Andy no idea. I've bought the lighter life one and if it's something I like I'll ask in my group and look at ingredients. If in doubt ask your llc. Sorry not to be more helpful. Hope yr journey is going well

The gelatine you would need is hydrogenated (I think) - the kind that dissolves instantly in cold liquid. I suspect that the usual supermarket stuff is different and comes in little sheets. No idea if you can use this kind for make-a-mousse, too.

I find the mousse mix lasts for 2 or 3 weeks. Unless you use it for every pack, it should go more then a week, if that helps any.

I was under the impression you should only use it in 1 pack a day anyway... so yeah, should last way longer than a week...

[Andyspurs]

Do you not have to use 10g per pack 1 a day is 70g so the pack is 70g so thats a week but maybe in wrong

 

[Pinkie :)]

Oooh, don't know about grams... just 2 level teaspoons per food pack. I've never used it 7 days in a row, so don't know how long it'd last that way! Guess time will tell eh?

Yep - packet says 2 tsps to 250ml water. It lasts a fair long time.
