Buckwheat and Bone Broth Soup

Not only is this an amazingly tasting broth, but it is packed full of goodness for both internal and external health! Bone broth is an excellent source of collagen which maintains the elasticity of skin and keeps you looking younger for longer. Another exciting ingredient in this broth is the buckwheat. Even though the name suggests that it contains wheat, that isn’t the case. It actually comes from a seed that is part of the rhubarb family. It contains a constituent called rutin which is excellent for micro-circulation which in turn is important for preventing wrinkles. Skiitake mushrooms are another welcome ingredient to this amazing broth and they are actually found inside our griffin+row products too! They’re known for aiding  the immune system as well as being a powerful antioxidant. Wakame seaweed is found in griffin+row products and gives this broth a wonderful, unique flavour. It is great for retarding ageing of the skin. So not only is this broth delicious but it should be a healthy staple to your eating regime!
