In partnership with Beach Body Super trainer, Andrea Leigh Rogers, Azuluna Foods recently launched a nutrient-dense, pasture-raised chicken bone broth.

The cooking process includes slow-roasting the bones with organic vegetables and herbs and fortifying them with fresh turmeric, sage, and bay leaves. The end result is a broth that’s gluten-free, GMO-free, fat-free, antibiotic-free, glyphosate-free, and keto- and paleo-friendly. It offers 8 grams of collagen and 14 grams of protein per serving.
