Benefits
Bone broth, also known as Liquid Gold, is not just another trend. It’s a time-tested elixir with profound potential for improving gut health and encouraging wellbeing. New Zealand grass-fed beef bone broth is rich in essential nutrients such as collagen, protein, vitamins, and minerals which:
Supports Gut Health: Bone broth is gentle on the gut and known for its gut-healing properties, as it can help improve digestion and support a healthy gut microbiome. The collagen in bone broth is comprised of proline, glycine and hydroxyproline, all of which help support the gut lining and keep it resilient against inflammation and pathogens that can cause infection1. There is also glutamine, an amino acid that serves to enhance the number and healthy function of cells lining the gut2.
Supports Digestive Health: The nutrients in bone broth, such as amino acids glycine and hydroxyproline are gut-protective. There are preclinical trials showing that glycine can reduce oxidative damage from free radicals, lowering inflammation and protecting the gut lining1. Glycine is also considered to be an anti-inflammatory molecule which will further support gut and immune health3 (as over 80% of our immune cells are housed in the gut). , This support can help improve digestion and nutrient absorption. This can lead to better overall digestive health and function.
Supports Joint Health: The collagen and gelatine found in bone broth can help support joint health, connective tissue and reduce inflammation. A study conducted in middle aged active adults found that supplementing 10g of collagen peptides resulted in a reduction of perceived pain and improved function and quality of life. This is believed to be due to the hydroxyproline present in the collagen, of which bone broth is a rich source4.
Supports Bone Health: The minerals in bone broth such as calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are essential for maintaining healthy bones, and are important for reducing the risk of fractures. In addition, there is preclinical research to show that hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate present in bone broth can help increase bone tissue and bone volume which will increase bone density over time5.
Supports Weight Management: Bone broth is low in calories and can help keep you feeling full, making it a good option to include in your weight management strategy. Consuming fluid prior to a meal may reduce overall caloric value of that meal6 and subsequent energy intake overall, and if it were a cold drink (as opposed to a warm drink) it may slow down gastric emptying, leading you to feel fuller for longer7.
Supports Skin Health: The collagen in bone broth can promote healthy skin, hair, and stronger nails8. Hyaluronic acid is involved in wound repair and reducing inflammation9, two functions which are thought to help improve skin elasticity and improve skin appearance10
Supports Immune Health: A healthy gut is essential for a strong immune system, and bone broth, with the provision of its amino acids, can help support immune health by promoting a healthy gut environment. This can help reduce the risk of infections and illnesses and reduce inflammation that can interfere with the regulation of our immune response11.

This bone broth is delicious. It has become a staple in my afternoon routine as I unwind for the day. I love that it is nourishing and still feels like a treat.
My daughter is so used to having a milo every morning but i really wanted to get her off lots of sugar, I add this to her milo and am putting less and less milo and she still LOVES her morning hot drink
Bonus is that I love that its full of so much goodness for her
Just bought this from Dani, we frothed up the milk then added the bone broth powder, absolutely delicious and perfect on these cold winter mornings. Here is my 4 year old getting into it!
This product is super delicious. Love ordering from daily habituals, always pleasantly surprised by the extra goodies I receive.
