The Benefits of Bone Broth

Now you may be wondering, “What exactly is bone broth”? Contrary to popular belief, bone broth is not animal bones that have simply been ground up into a powder. Bone broth is actually made by slowly boiling and simmering bones and leftover meat in water for an extended period of time. As the bones boil in the water, they slowly give up and release their nutrients into the water, creating an extremely nutrient-rich solution, or “broth”. 

Because of this careful process, bone broth has some great health benefits for us. Being rich in the main amino acids our bodies need, as well as containing essential minerals, it is an extremely effective way to boost the nutrient load to any given dish by simply adding some Bone Broth Powder into it.

Bone Broth: A Nutritional Powerhouse

Bone broth is rich in vitamins and minerals, including:

• Collagen: Supports skin elasticity, joint health, and gut integrity.
• Gelatin: Aids digestion and helps heal the gut lining.
• Amino acids: Such as glycine and proline, are vital for protein synthesis and overall health.
• Minerals: Including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium are essential for bone health.
