About this supplement
Beef bone broth protein is a hydrolyzed protein powder derived from the bones, cartilage, and connective tissues of cattle through a prolonged simmering and hydrolysis process. It is rich in collagen, gelatin, and specific amino acids like glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, which are the building blocks for connective tissues in the body. Unlike standard protein powders (e.g., whey, pea), it provides a unique profile of conditionally essential amino acids and bioactive peptides that support joint, gut, and skin health. The protein is typically hydrolyzed to improve solubility and bioavailability.

Technical details â–¼
Chemical ID (CAS)
9007-34-5 (for collagen, general)
Physical properties
Typically a fine, off-white to light tan powder. Soluble in hot and cold liquids, forming a clear or slightly opaque solution. Mild, savory flavor. Hydrolyzed form has low viscosity compared to gelatin.
How it’s made
Produced by simmering cleaned beef bones (often with cartilage and connective tissues) in water for 12-48 hours. The resulting broth is filtered, concentrated, and then enzymatically hydrolyzed to break down collagen and gelatin into smaller peptides. The liquid is then spray-dried into a powder. Some processes may include defatting and removal of impurities.
