Yes.
It is comparatively low in calories (20 calories a teaspoon-which makes a good strength mug with boiling water) because despite its obvious "beefy" taste it is very low in fat.
Equally, many people find it an effective way to satisfy food cravings that all people have on a calorie controlled diet, even sensible diets. It is warming, comforting, and lets be honest, downright MEATY. And a 20 calorie mug of Bovril may be all it takes to stop the consumption of high calorie high fat alternatives in moments of weakness...
One drawback is that it is comparatively high in salt. One mugfull providing almost 25% of an adults RDA of sodium.
