From Gwyneth Paltrow to Kobe Bryant, many celebs are touting the benefits of bone broth. On a typical training day in Los Angeles, the LA Lakers team chef, makes enough broth to feed around 30 people.

The cooking process takes about eight hours, then the chef will: “strain the broth and place it in a fridge, where it turns into a gel when cooled.”  Why is this seemingly simple paleo-liquid something that Kobe and Gwyneth would want to drink?  According to experts, it is the gelatin that contains many of the health benefits of bone broth.

A well made broth is full of minerals including calcium and magnesium. In addition to minerals, bone broth contains collagen and elastin proteins great for hair, skin and nails.  Bone broth can help with digestion, inflammation, and boosts the immune system.

The broth is made from animal bones, herbs, vegetables and spices that have been simmered into a broth. Bone broth has been a source of nutrients for 1000’s of years.

Anything that Kobe Bryant does to improve his health should be noted.  As one of the best NBA players and athletes of all-time, Bryant has pushed his body to the limits for years.
