Bone Broth Peptides

Also known as: Bone Broth Protein

Bone broth peptides are a complex mixture of bioactive peptides, amino acids, minerals, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) derived from slow-cooking animal bones and connective tissues. The extended cooking process (12-48 hours) hydrolyzes collagen, releasing peptide fragments along with gelatin, chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine, hyaluronic acid, and bone-derived minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus). While bone broth has been consumed for millennia in traditional cuisines worldwide, modern scientific interest focuses on its collagen peptide content and the synergistic effects of its multiple bioactive components. Commercial bone broth protein supplements typically provide 15-20g protein per serving with a collagen-rich amino acid profile. Clinical evidence for bone broth is less robust than for purified collagen peptides, as the variable composition makes standardization challenging.
