Why Make Fish Bone Broth?
Fish Bone Broth is the queen of bone broths because it is not only rich in iodine, it’s rich in collagen too, which supports good gut health.
Fish Bone Broth is so inexpensive to make because you are using fish bones and fish heads that you should be able to buy for less than $2.00 per pound. So this is one bone broth you really should add to your culinary repertoire!
