How is the Chicken Bone Broth Powder made?
Our Chicken Bone Broth powder is made by roasting organic chicken bones, then simmering the bones in filtered water and organic apple cider vinegar. The liquid is then poured through a filter to remove any solids. The broth is then gently refractance dried into a powder.
Why is apple cider vinegar added?
Apple cider vinegar is acidic, which makes it great for naturally enhancing the extraction of collagen and other nutritious elements from the bone to ensure that our bone broth contains all the possible benefits.
Is the bone broth from organic chickens?
Yes, our chicken bone broth is made from Australian, free range, organic chicken bones.
What does "deactivated" nutritional savoury flakes mean?
Deactivated is a term used to describe the quick heating process that stops nutritional yeast from being able to proliferate any further. Just like good and bad bacteria, there are good and bad yeasts that exist within our digestive tract. Unlike unhealthy yeasts such as Candida spp., nutritional yeast is made from a healthful yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae which helps to stop unhealthy yeasts from colonising in the digestive tract by a process of displacement. Therefore even though nutritional yeast is deactivated and unable to proliferate in the body, it is still having the favourable effects of a beneficial yeast in the digestive tract.
Can I give your product to my 6 months old child?
We do not recommend giving our broths (broth powdered and concentrates) to children under 12 months of age as the sodium content is not suitable for young children when the product is prepared according to our serving suggestion. However, if you are using our broths as an ingredient in a recipe containing lower sodium foods, it may be suitable. We would recommend following the advice of your healthcare professional when introducing any new foods into your young child’s diet.
Is it pregnancy & breastfeeding friendly?
Yes! In saying this, we do advise to seek the advice of your primary health care professional if taking any of our products for the first time if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. We only say so as we believe that every pregnancy is different, taking a toll differently on each individual body in vitamin, mineral and energy levels. We invite you to research the product to ensure that you are not sensitive to any particular ingredients.
Which Broth is better: powder or concentrate?
In terms of bone broth benefits, our bone broth concentrates and powder bone broths are much the same with benefits for the immune system, gut wellbeing and energy. However, in terms of flavour profile, format and uses, there are a few key differences.
Our Bone Broth Concentrates have a rich flavour profile, meaning it’s great for soups, stews, gravies and cooking with a smaller amount needed, whereas our powder bone broths have a delicate flavour profile. Our Bone Broth Concentrates are also shelf stable and need to be used within 12 weeks, and our powders are better for travelling as they come in tins.
Why do our broths sparkle?
Our broths are so special that they even sparkle! This is because we have used a gentle refractance dry technique to preserve the nutrients and colour. No, we have not added any glitter. Due to the gentle evaporation process that occurs as part of the refractance drying method, the raw material starts to change shape to form small crystalline structures that naturally reflect light making it sparkle.
