Nxgen, Organic Bone Broth Protein Powder, 250g

Here are the components in a traditionally made gut healing bone broth. 

• Glycine - a healing amino acid found in bone broth that specifically helps to heal your gut. 
• Gelatin - a cooked version of collagen that assists in digestion and absorption of food. 
• Glutamine - an amino acid that acts as a fuel source for your gut and intestinal cells (1).
• Proline - an amino acid that helps heal wounds to promote gut health (2). 
• Hydroxyproline - a non-essential amino acid found in bone broth that promotes gut health.
• Collagen - nourishes your intestinal walls and decreases gut inflammation. 
• Electrolytes - to hydrate your gut and whole body. 

Bone broth made from a traditional recipe is full of glycine. Glycine is a unique amino acid because of it’s gut healing properties. 

Glycine is one of the most potent anti-inflammatories for your gut health: including your stomach and intestines (3).

Why are anti-inflammatories important for gut health? 

Inflammation occurs in our guts when tiny food particles work their way outside of your digestive system into our bloodstream. 

Food should not get outside your digestive system. It literally seeps through your gut into the rest of your body. 

This kicks off an inflammatory ruckus in our bodies, causing long-term health issues like Crohn's ,IBD or ulcerative colitis. 

Most of the gut healing protein in bone broth is due to gelatin. Gelatin is a type of protein that is similar to collagen.

For all intents and purposes, gelatin and collagen have the same health benefits. Why? Because gelatin and collagen share an identical amino acid profile. 

Meaning, they both have glycine (great for gut health), proline, glucosamine and glutamine in identical amounts.
