7 Amazing Benefits Of Using Bone Broth For Skin And Hair

Although bone broth is only now getting all the hype like most other superfoods, it’s been consumed for ages in many traditional cultures around the world. When I was a kid my mom made me bone broth and my mom’s mom made her bone broth too!

Bone broth is made by cooking bones that have been roasted first and still have connective tissue and skin. You can find such bones (soup bones, goat/beef knuckles, etc) at the local butcher’s or wherever they sell meat. Make sure to buy from organic grass-fed sources. Bone broth is cooked in a way that the bones can become extremely soft that you can easily chew and swallow them.

All the nutrients in the bones and connective tissue are leached into the broth, which makes it a super nourishing nutrient-rich food! Our bone broth recipe is the simplest and it’s the only one you’ll ever need! It contains the regular vegetables for broth and just a few spices but it’s so flavorful, we use the same recipe every single time.

The best and fastest way to make bone broth is using a large capacity pressure cooker. You do not need to cook it for a long time at all! When you use a pressure cooker, you’ll get perfectly nutritious and delicious bone broth in the quickest time possible.

# Delays Wrinkles

Ditch the expensive collagen creams and take dietary collagen in the form of bone broth instead for youthful skin! Bone broth is super rich in collagen, which is broken down to form gelatin. Gelatin heals inflammation that leads to aging, reduces skin roughness, improves skin elasticity and keeps skin supple and wrinkle-free.

# Promotes Hair Growth

Consuming bone broth will give you a healthier head of hair with lustrous locks and a moisturized scalp but did you know that it also promotes hair growth?!

# For Healthy Nails & Cuticles

The gelatin in bone broth helps promote healthy and moisturized cuticles and nails. It also promotes nail growth and strengthens them. If you have weak, brittle and soft nails, no need to take supplements! Simply include bone broth as well as eggs, fatty fish and nuts like almonds in your diet.

# Get Rid of Cellulite

Yes, bone broth will help you get rid of cellulite and attain smooth & flawless skin! Contrary to popular belief, cellulite does not come because of excess fat – even slender people can have cellulite! Cellulite is brought about by lack of enough connective tissue as well as build-up of toxins/clogged up lymphatic system. Bone broth not only increases the skin’s collagen but also helps flush out toxins which all help reduce cellulite.

# Heals Skin Inflammation

Inflammatory skin conditions including eczema, psoriasis, acne inflammation, rosacea and others can be reduced and naturally healed by drinking bone broth. The amino acids found in bone broth are powerful anti-inflammatory agents, which will soothe the inflammation, make it appear less noticeable as well as speed up healing.

# Prevents Stretch Marks

Do stretch marks ever fade? Yes, they do. Include collagen-rich foods in your diet! As you already know, bone broth contains a lot of collagen, which is broken down into gelatin in the cooking process. Collagen is what keeps our skin elastic and it helps maintain our skin’s structural integrity. Eating collagen-rich foods like bone broth boost collagen production and prevent and fade away stretch marks.

# Prevents & Lifts Sagging Skin

The high levels of natural collagen help boost the skin’s collagen and improve the skin’s elasticity thereby keeping it taut and firm.
