Bone broth is a nutritious and flavorful liquid made from simmering bones and connective tissue for an extended period of time.
This ancient food has been used for centuries in traditional diets around the world, and is becoming increasingly popular today due to its numerous health benefits.
Bone broth is rich in essential nutrients such as collagen, gelatin, and amino acids, which can support joint health, improve digestion, boost the immune system, and promote healthy skin, hair, and nails.
In this context, it is worthwhile to explore the nutrition and benefits of bone broth in more detail, as well as the various ways it can be incorporated into a healthy and balanced diet.
6 key nutritional compounds found in bone broth:
Glycosaminoglycans (GAG)
Glucosamine
Hyaluronic Acid
Chondroitin Sulfate
Minerals & Electrolytes
Collagen
Bone broth is packed with:
- over 19 easy-to-absorb, essential and non-essential amino acids (the building blocks of proteins)
- collagen, which help form connective tissue
- nutrients that support
digestive functions, immunity and brain health
Collagen plays a major role in the healing of our bodies as it is a protein which makes up the lining of our gut. When leaky-gut is present, the proteins of the lining are inflamed and are not properly attached to the stomach causing toxins to leak into the bloodstream. Bone broth actually soothes the gut lining and repairs the leaking of toxins improving digestion and nutrient absorption which in turns improves your overall health.
Make sure your bone broth contains the best ingredients. You want to use organic produce and grass-fed, no grains meat/bones. The closest to their natural diet, the better the bones.
Genetically Modified foods should never be consumed as well as those doused in pesticides.
