Bone Broth - Grass-Fed Beef - 90 grams

Bone Broth – Grass-Fed Beef, by Broth of Life

The use of bone broth is as old as Methuselah. Traditionally living peoples worldwide agree on the health benefits of bone broth. It is an efficient and natural way to provide your body with gelatin. Broth of Life's natural bone broth is made from the meat and bones of 100% grass-fed cattle that have been simmering for hours to ensure that nutrients are slowly but steadily released. Due to its high gelatin content, its use is distinctly nutritious, indeed for the entire body.

What makes Broth of Life bone broth so special?

The Broth of Life bone broth is made with great care and attention and can be called a special product for several reasons. For example, the water used to make the broth is carefully filtered three times through a special system to ensure that there is no chlorine or fluoride in the water. Subsequently, an extremely meticulous and manual production process takes place, which involves a lot of time and attention. This way the soup invariably simmers for at least 24 hours, so that the collagen and the other special components that naturally occur in animal bones and connective tissues can be released slowly.

Broth of Life has been researching bone broth for years to develop the highest possible product quality; it is not without reason that she is the market leader in her sector and her product is also the first 100% certified bone broth in the world! Broth of Life was also the first worldwide to dehydrate and pack its products in a convenient powder form, making the soup easy to store and use. When you buy products from Broth of Life, you can be sure that you have an extremely nutritious and high-quality product that you know exactly what it contains. After all, Broth of Life prides itself on being transparent about what ingredients are used to make its nutritious 'golden elixirs', as they like to call their broths.

Bone broth as an ancient tradition

Bone broth has been used as a food around the world for millennia. Bone broth is made by simmering animal bones in water at low temperatures for a long time (at least 24 hours). The body-nurturing power of broth is something that countless of traditional peoples worldwide are convinced of. The soup is even the basis of the word 'restaurant', which comes from the French word restaurer, which means 'to restore'. A French soup maker opened up the first restaurant in the world in the 18th century, where he offered soup for factory worker to "recover" from their toil. This enterprising soup maker , like his ancestors, instinctively knew the healing effect of animal bones and tissues. The taste of an authentic, strong broth get us back to that full sensory experience that many ancient cultures still had. You will rarely find a natural food product as nutritious as bone broth!

The secret of bone broth

Real food is not only a means to satisfy hunger, it is also nutritious and beneficial for the body. For example, bone broth is rich in bioavailable collagen and contains easily digestible amino acids, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body: it forms bones, teeth, tendons, ligaments, joints and cartilage, among other tissues. In addition, it takes care of your hair, skin and nails and the hollow organs that make up our digestive system (the esophagus, stomach and small intestine). In bone broth collagen is broken down (denatured) into gelatin, rendering it easily absorbable by the body. In addition to gelatin, bone broth also contains special carbohydrates, which occur naturally in the connective tissues. These are glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), the most familiar of which are hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, chondroitin and n-acetylglucosamine.

The importance of collagen for our body

Collagen accounts for 25% to 35% of the total protein content in our body. The important protein consists of amino acids and peptides, which our cells use as building blocks to produce the large collagen triple helix structure. This structure ensures that tissues and fibers in our body maintain their strength, cohesion and flexibility. From the age of about 25 the body's production of collagen decreases and it is useful to provide our body with sufficient collagen through food. There are distinct types of collagen: types I, II and III are the most important. Over 90% of the collagen in our body consists of type I collagen. Type II collagen is found in joints, ribs, nose, larynx and intervertebral discs, while type III is common in the skin and blood vessels. Bovine collagen is the most widely used source of collagen in collagen supplements and consists mainly of type I and type III collagen.

Bone broth versus collagen hydrolysate

In bone broth, collagen is converted into gelatin, which is easily absorbed by the body. You may have encountered supplements containing collagen hydrolysate, in which the gelatin has been further processed and the proteins have been broken up into smaller pieces by means of enzymes. While collagen hydrolysate contains only type I collagen, bone broth gelatin consists of multiple types of collagen and contains more nutrients, such as useful minerals, fats and special carbohydrates (glycosaminoglycans, also known as GAGs). Although gelatin in bone broth is richer, both forms contain essential amino acids that are easily absorbed and have the same nutritious properties.

Rich source of rare amino acids

Proteins are made up of building blocks called amino acids. These amino acids, 22 in total, are divided into essential and non-essential amino acids. The body can produce non-essential amino acids itself. This is not the case for the essential amino acids, rendering it essential that you acquire these amino acids either through your diet or through supplements. The amino acid profile in bone broth is quite unique: it contains high concentrations of glycine, glutamine, arginine and proline. They are all essential amino acids.

Eating from head to tail

Animal organs have been eaten in all traditional civilizations across millennia, from Native American to ancient Chinese cultures. Traditional healers had the insight that eating healthy, animal organs has a nurturing effect on the same organs in the human body. Today, as a result of prosperity and abundance, we have largely forgotten the head-to-tail principle, and some even shy away from consuming animal organs. Fortunately, there has recently been a revival of this ancestral way of life and of evolutionary food: organ therapy is back. After all, it is part of an ethical, sustainable and healthy lifestyle to use animals in their entirety for consumption. Organ meats contain high concentrations of nutrients, such as vitamin B12 and folate, and are an excellent source of iron and protein. In addition, organs also contain nutrients that our corresponding human organs crave. Organ meat is therefore the ideal food for those who want to live healthily and sustainably while respecting animals and environment.
