Collagen is what gives your skin its elasticity and supports muscles, joints, tendons, and ligaments. From the age of 20 on, you lose about one percent of your collagen each year. This leads to wrinkling, sagging, cellulite, and achy joints.
To prevent this relentless aging, you need to increase your collagen levels, and one of the easiest, and most delicious ways to get more collagen is with bone broth.
Bone broth is loaded with the building blocks of collagen and mainlines these building blocks directly to your cells.
The result: Your skin gets smooth and dewy, and your joint health improves.
Dr. Kellyann’s Collagen Broth makes getting a daily does of collagen and bone broth simple, easy, and delicious with to-go packets--just add hot water.
Bone Broth Benefits
- Packed with collagen. Collagen helps your body burn fat and form lean muscle mass, shaping your arms, legs, and core.
- Beautifies your skin. Bone broth is loaded with the building blocks of collagen, the structural protein that makes your skin strong and smooth. Bone broth is also rich in hyaluronic acid, which erases wrinkles and takes years off your face.
- Detoxifies your body. The amino acids glycine and proline aid your liver in removing toxins from your body. In addition, glycine is a building block of glutathione, one of the body’s most powerful detoxifying agents.

GAGs also help your body lay down needed collagen. In addition, hyaluronic acid helps to lubricate your joints, keeping them healthy and pain-free.

Fasting With Bone Broth
Mini-fast by shortening your eating window each day. For example, my 10-Day Belly Slimdown has you eat within a 7-hour window each day (noon to 7 pm). Other popular mini-fasting windows are 16:8 and 20:4, which means you fast for 16, or 20, hours and eat your daily meals during an 8-hour, or 4-hour, window.
