E! News Daily Pop: The Benefits of Bone Broth

Dr. Kellyann on E! News Daily Pop As you age, your body produces less and less collagen. If you are low on collagen, it can show up in your face, skin, nails, teeth, and bones. Decreased amounts mean your skin and hair get thinner, sags and wrinkles begin to appear, joints get stiffer, and tendons and ligaments lose elasticity. If you've experienced these symptoms it's not too late. You can supplement your body with the collagen it needs through a diet consisting of Bone Broth. Bone Broth has many health benefits. Not only is it packed with collagen to improve the look and feel of your hair, skin, nails, and joints. But, it also has gut healing properties that can help improve digestion, detox your body, and fight inflammation. Watch as I team up with the crew on E! News' Daily Pop, to talk about fun ways to supplement your diet with Bone Broth, and how to get all of the collagen and health benefits that come with it.
