What is Bone Broth Collagen Powder?
Bone Broth Collagen Powder ( I love the Vital Proteins brand) is crafted with USDA Organic bones that are simmered slowly to extract the maximum amount of nutrients. The bones are either sourced from grass-fed, pasture-raised cattle or free-range chickens, and offer 9g of protein.
What are the benefits of Bone Broth Collagen?
- Improve gut lining, joint health, and moisture/texture of skin
- Boost immune system & detoxification
- Maintain healthy skin
- Encourages a positive inflammatory response
- Promotes healthy metabolism
Because bone broth contributes to gut health restoration, it also promotes a healthy immune system due to an extensive amino acid profile that includes proline, glutamine and arginine, all of which help to encourage a healthy gut lining (1).
How do I use Bone Broth Collagen Powder?
- Both Beef and Chicken Bone Broth Collagen Powders are unflavored and contain just one ingredient
- Perfect addition to warm beverages, stews, soups, and more.
