Bone Broth and Gut Health
Bone broth transforms your dog's gut health, acting as a pre-biotic food. They decided to put their broths to the test, partnering with Biome4Pets and Aberystwyth University. They conducted a study with 33 dogs who had never had bone broth before. The gut microbiome was tested before and after 4 weeks of a Boil & Broth Bone Broth, and the results are as follows:
96% of dogs showed improved gut microbiome diversity - key for digestion and immune health
1562% increase in beneficial bacteria Bififidobacterium - boosting gut function and resilience
87% decrease in Clostridium Sensu Stricto - supporting a healthier gut barrier
96% reduction in harmful Helicobater - helping to reduce gut inflammation
This study shows the Boil & Broth Bone Broth positively helps reduce leaky gut syndrome and increases beneficial bacteria of the canine microbiome. #BIOMEBROTHSTUDY
So bone broth is more than just a tasty treat — it is a natural prebiotic! Prebiotics feed beneficial helping to promote:
Better digestion
Stronger immunity
Increased energy and vitality
About Boil & Broth
Boil and Broth specialise in making bone broth for dogs and they are the only UK bone broth manufacturer to obtain a dual food license to produce broth for the human and pet feed market.
Rachel started Boil and Broth back in 2018 after seeing the demand for the products she was making. Rachel herself had health issues and she researched a lot about her condition and finally developed my her own diet, as well as making broth and kefir water to help. Within 12 weeks she had reversed her condition.
Rachel has grown her small family business from selling a few orders a week to establishing a great business on a private farm selling her products to people all over the country, including the pet side of the business.
All their broth is made using locally Dorset sourced organic, grass-fed animals. They add no vegetables or seasoning, which means that their broth is higher in protein, because they use more bones. This makes this broth an excellent addition to your dog’s diet and they will love you for it too.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
My bone broth won’t turn into jelly, why is this? Collagen is the protein that makes your broth turn to jelly. Collagen is a delicate protein and will only set at temperatures of 3-4 degrees. Make sure your fridge is turned right down to get your broth to wobble.
How much apple cider vinegar is used? Apple cider vinegar is used as a processing ingredient. There is less than 1% used during the broth production process. Once the broth has been pressure cooked, there is no apple cider vinegar left in the final product.
My broth sticks to the spoon when stirring, why is this? Collagen causes the broth to stick to the spoon. It is a natural product and you need to be patient with it. Simply use another spoon to scrape off the collagen into the hot water and continue to stir.
