Gelatin from the beef or chicken bones will promote healthy skin, shiny hair and a very happy belly. There is a difference between chicken/beef stock and bone broth. The easy way to identify the difference is to look at the protein content. I’m using the Pacific brand which contains 9gm of protein. Stock contains 1 to 2 grams if any at all.
If you are worried about your sodium, look for a low or no salt option. The most obvious benefits are:
- Bone Broth promotes Clearer Skin, and May Help Reduce Acne, Rosacea, Eczema, and Psoriasis.
- Broth is highly nutritious –iron, vitamins A and K, fatty acids, selenium, Zinc and manganese
- It may protect the joints – Consuming bone broth may be a good way to add gelatin to the diet, which may help protect these joints.
- Bone Broth may help fight osteoarthritis – Results show that collagen can improve knee joint symptoms, such as pain, stiffness, and poorer physical function, in people with osteoarthritis.
- It can help reduce inflammation and heal the gut – Drinking bone broth daily may be a simple way to get anti-inflammatory amino acids into the body.
- Lacking sleep? People who take glycine before going to sleep may feel that they sleep better and have less fatigue during the following day. For these people, drinking bone broth with a simple dinner may help provide this glycine.
- Is weight loss important? Drinking bone broth or making a simple soup may be a beneficial way to add more protein to the diet and feel more satisfied with a meal without consuming too many calories.
