This broth is an excellent source of protein while being very low in fats and sugars, making it a great addition to a balanced diet. It’s also rich in minerals such as sodium, potassium, and phosphorus, which are essential for maintaining hydration and supporting cellular functions. Though it doesn’t provide much in terms of vitamins, the trace amounts of vitamin C, B vitamins, and iron contribute to its overall nutritional value.

To enhance the nutritional profile, consider adding vegetables or lean meats to the broth for added fiber and vitamins. You can also adjust the sodium content by using low-sodium versions of the broth or bouillon.
