How is Bone Broth Different from Broth or Stock?

Bone broth has quickly gained popularity over the years, but what exactly makes this drink unique is often somewhat unknown. Bone broth is much different than chicken broth or stock nutritionally. This is due to the method in which it is made, and often, the types of bones that are used.

While stock and broth are meant to add flavor to a meal, bone broth is made to deliver collagen, protein, glycine, glutamine, proline, and more. In other words, bone broth is most often known for its health promoting properties, while broth or stock is most often used in a more practical sense, for flavor.

Bone Broth versus Stock

Like mentioned above, stock and bone broth hold very different nutritional profiles. In addition, they are most often used for different main purposes. So why exactly do these differences exist? Well, there are a few main things to points out…

Cook Time

While broth or stock can be cooked on a higher heat for just a couple or few hours, bone broth is intentionally simmered on low for anywhere from 12 hours, often up to 3 days! The slow simmer of bone broth helps to extract the nutrients from the bones, creating the rich nutritional profile.

Texture

While bone broth, stock, and broth all have a similar texture while warm, a high quality, collagen rich bone broth will gel upon cooling. A gelatinous bone broth is a great sign that your bone broth is high quality, and rich in collagen!

Types of Bones

While some chicken broth and stock recipes call for only meat, most still use bones within the recipe. Bone broth, however, seeks to use the highest quality, most nutrient-rich bones. This includes bones like marrow bones, chicken feet, joints, knuckles, and so on.

Flavor and Taste

While bone broth, stock, and broth taste similar, bone broth has a richer, deeper flavor than traditional stocks. If combined into a soup, you may not even notice the difference between bone broth and stock!

Benefits of Bone Broth

As this article emphasizes, Bone Broth Recipe Chicken is a delicious drink that has tons of health benefits! What bone broth has done for my health has been so drastic, that I’ve added it into my daily routine, and notice a big difference if I take off a couple of weeks.

So what exactly does bone broth have to offer health wise? Here are just a few of the many health benefits of bone broth…

Promotes Gut Health

Bone broth is incredibly soothing to the gut, providing an amazing source of collagen. This has been studied to aid in improving leaky gut and other symptoms like IBS. While an amazing benefit for anyone, those with preexisting gut issues or IBD may want to pay particular attention to this benefit.

Immune Health

So much of our body’s functions are highly reliant on our gut health, our immune system being one of them. In fact, 70-80% of our immune cells can actually be found in our gut! Therefore, the better our gut functions, the better many other systems in our body can function as well.

Inflammation Reducing

Bone broth is full of amino acids. The particular amino acids in bone broth like glycine and arginine are incredibly anti-inflammatory, and great for maintaining healthy levels of inflammation within the body.

Ways to Enjoy Bone Broth Recipe Chicken

Bone Broth Recipe Chicken can be enjoyed in many different ways, and easily included in numerous recipes, both savory and sweet! Here are just a few of the ways I love to enjoy bone broth on a regular basis…
