| While bone broth can provide some beneficial nutrients, experts don't view the popular beverage as vital addition to your wellness regime. |
| Is drinking bone broth good for you? |
| Made by simmering animal bones in water for a long time with vegetables, spices and sometimes other ingredients like apple cider vinegar, bone broth can be "part of the puzzle, but is not a quick fix," Laura Ligos, a registered dietitian nutritionist and specialist in sports dietetics says. |
| "The goal is to help to pull out important nutrients from the bones, like collagen, gelatin, amino acids like glycine as well as minerals like calcium and magnesium," she says. "It's these nutrients that are extracted from the bones that have been shown to be helpful with gut, skin, hair, and nail health and there is some truth to that. That being said, we need more than just bone broth to be able to improve overall health." |
| Benefits of bone broth include providing humans with certain nutrients from the connective tissue and meat of the bones, which in turn can aid in strengthening of muscle and bones, explains Jenna Litt, a registered dietitian at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York. |
| "Specifically, bone broth is rich in collagen and certain vitamins and minerals, such as, iron, fat-soluble vitamins, zinc and other trace minerals. Collagen and fat-soluble vitamins are known to improve hair, skin and nail health," she adds. |
| Currently there is not enough research to support the benefits or detriments of bone broth on gut health, Litt says. |
| Do I need bone broth in my diet? |
| The short answer? No. |
| While almost anyone can try it, Ligos says it's important to zoom out and look at the big picture when thinking about nutrition. |
| "There likely isn't one food item that's going to be the golden ticket to our health. It's a combination of things that we do that can support our health over the long haul. Bone broth can certainly be a part of that — but not the only part of that." |
| For example, if you're interested in improving skin, nail and hair health, simply increasing protein intake in your diet has been shown to yield results, Litt says, pointing out that "the use of bone broth is not required." |
