Bone Broth is more than just delicious, it's nutritious
Bone broth has for decades been referred to as “Liquid Gold”. It’s heritage nourishment, reimagined for today’s busy schedules. Made from NZ grass-fed beef bone broth and infused with rich chocolately flavours.
Gut & Digestive Health
Bone broth is gentle on the gut lining. The collagen (and its breakdown product gelatin) supplies amino acids like glycine, proline, glutamine, hydroxyproline which support the integrity of the intestinal lining, may reduce inflammation, help heal damage (e.g. “leaky gut”).
Support for Tissue & Joints
Collagen and gelatin in bone broth help support joints, cartilage, tendons, ligaments. Studies show collagen peptides reduce pain, improve function. Minerals such as calcium, magnesium also assist.
Supports Healthy Bones
Minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus) plus compounds like hyaluronic acid / chondroitin (from cartilage) contribute to maintenance of bone mass / strength.
Skin, Hair & Nails
Collagen + associated amino acids help skin elasticity; gelatin retains moisture; anti‑inflammatory effects help with skin repair.
Immune Support
Because a large part of immune function is in the gut, anything that supports gut integrity helps immune health. Amino acids like glycine also have anti‑inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties.
Sleep & Mood Benefits
Glycine has been shown in studies to help with calming nervous system, improving sleep when taken before bedtime.
