What Makes Bone Broth So Special?
Bone broths are as old as the ages, and are a staple of the Paleolithic, or Paleo, diet—an eating plan based on the foods consumed by hunter-gatherers who roamed the earth more than 10,000 years ago. They are a source of quality protein, and Terra Origin Collagen + Protein Bone Broth ups the ante by including additional bone broth protein and collagen protein, a main protein source in bone broth. Altogether, a serving provides 18 grams of quality protein. In addition, this delicious formula is available in natural vanilla and chocolate flavors, and is sweetened with stevia leaf extract to avoid excess sugar.
