Bone broth seems to be all the rage these days, but what exactly is it about this bone juice that has everyone obsessed? Today we’re going to go over the benefits of bone broth and how it can aid in healing many modern health issues.
Bone broth is made from animal bones, tendons, ligaments, marrow, skin, and other flexible connective tissues. In modern times these parts are usually discarded as they aren’t easily eaten on their own. However, when simmered in water for long periods of time, animal bones and tissues make a healing nutrient-dense elixir.
The protein providing strength to animals’ (including humans!) bones, cartilage, and tendons is called collagen.
When cooked, collagen turns into gelatin, a jello-like substance.
As we will discuss in the following section, collagen and gelatin provide a host of immune-boosting properties, amino acids, and gut lining support to aid and heal many modern ailments.
Bone broth is easily digested, unlike many other foods which can be hard to break down. But the real power of bone broth is that it is actually healing to the digestive system. It has been found to aid in cases of leaky gut, IBS, food allergies and sensitivities, and much more.
Collagen is a protein that forms the GI tract lining. Consuming the collagen and gelatin in bone broth helps heal the walls of the gut lining, preventing food and toxins from escaping and causing inflammation and other damage outside of the tract. This is major good news for those suffering from poor digestion and gut-related health issues (leaky gut, IBS, Crohn's).
The collagen and gelatin from bone broth are also great for anti-aging effects. They keep the skin youthful by reducing wrinkles and improving elasticity, aid the growth of hair and nails, and strengthen your bones! Collagen also helps to reduce the appearance of cellulite over time.
Essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, and silica are all electrolytes in bone broth which keep you hydrated, help with bone health, and can reduce brain fog and fatigue.
The amino acids found in bone broth include glutamine, arginine, glycine, and cysteine, and proline. Together these amino acids offer a wide range of benefits, including:
-Skin elasticity
-Build up the walls of the intestines
-Aid in proper bile and stomach acid production
-Enhance the immune system
-Anti-inflammatory, reducing oxidative stress and autoimmunity
-Promote human growth hormone
-Liver detoxification support
-Generate glutathione
Bone broth is incredibly simple to make, especially when looking at the benefits reaped from consuming this healthy elixir. The collagen, gelatin, amino acids and minerals in collagen make bone broth an incredibly simple and powerful solution to create healthier joints, skin, bones, and gut.
