IT USED TO BE that the only bone broth you could find were the chemical-filled broths that filled the shelves at your local grocery store. Now that bone broth has gone mainstream, you can find good quality broth even in the freezer isle.
So why is bone broth popping up everywhere?
The reason bone broth is popping up all over the place these days is because the health benefits of bone broth. There are so many benefits that everyone is finally getting it!
Look at these benefits alone that bone broth can help with:
- Healing Leaky Gut Syndrome
- Help with food intolerances and allergies
- Improve Joint Health
- Improve Your Skin
- Reduce Cellulite’s Appearance

Think about when you were sick when you were little: When you got sick your mom gave you chicken soup. She knew the bone broth in it would help you get better faster than any drug on the market.
Bone broth is created by simmering the bones, marrow, skin, feet, tendons, and ligaments of cows or chickens. When you simmer the broth, it causes all the components to release the compounds within such as collagen, lysine, proline, and glutamine.
Your body can easily absorb those nutrients and minerals found in bone broth such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine which helps with joints.

Help Heal Your Leaky Gut Syndrome
The gelatin, found in bone broth, has major health benefits. I’ll you have to do is drink a cup or two of bone broth each day. Not only helps heal your leaky gut, and it can protect a non-leaky gut too.
The gelatin in bone broth literally seals up holes (the ones that cause leaky gut) in your intestines.
Collagen promotes better digestion, less constipation, and even help protect against food intolerance.
Helps with Food Intolerances & Allergies
Bone broth fights against food intolerances and allergies as well.
- Restores gut lining
- Fight food sensitivities
- Restores good bacteria
Makes Your Joints Feel Better
One of the main nutrients found in bone broth is collagen.
Collagen has so many benefits, I could talk about collagen all day! As someone who suffers from joint pain, I can vouch that it helps to make my joints feel better! I can always tell if I’ve been slacking off taking my collagen because my joints start to ache.
Taking collagen just once per day (1.5 T) for 4-24 weeks results in better bone density. Taking just 10g daily has shown to help fight against osteoporosis.
Improves Your Skin and Reduce Cellulite
Since bone broth contains lots of collagen, I’d thought I’d tell you more about it!
Studies have shown that collagen has a positive impact on fine lines and wrinkles. If that wasn’t enough, cellulite is often reduced when regularly consuming the collagen in bone broth.
What bone broth does for your skin:
- Increases skin elasticity
- Better skin moisture
- Noticeable differences in signs of aging.
If that doesn’t make you want to start consuming bone broth, read on…

How Should I Eat Bone Broth?
There are so many ways to eat bone broth. I say, however taking it tastes good and gets you to take it is a great way to eat/drink it:
- Drink It! A simple way is just make a cup of bone broth and drink it from a mug. This is a great way start your day by priming your body with essential nutrients and minerals.
- As Soup: If you like soup, try making a soup that uses broth, and replace it with bone broth.
- Use the powder as seasoning on meats: Did you know that bone broth now comes in high-quality powdered form? You can still use to make a liquid bone broth, or just add to meats, sauces, and more – almost like you would a seasoning!
