Your muscles.
Apart from achy joints, many of us find our burning muscles to be the biggest source of discomfort the day after a hard workout. Lucky you! , bone broth is also extremely good at lowering inflammation with its wealthy stores of soothing proline, glycine, and arginine. The additional water in bone broth also help sooths inflammation, speeds up recovery and gets you back in the gym faster.
Your rehydration.
Sports beverages would have you thinking that post workout rehydration is fruity and neon. Sadly, natural dyes and magical zero kilojoule sweetener, is not what your body needs at any time, in particularly not after a training session. Quality bone broth contains high levels naturally-occurring minerals that works as electrolytes do, to quickly rehydrate and replenish lost mineral stores.
