Alex's Easy Bone Broth Recipe for a Natural Collagen Boost After 40!

Posted by Jentri Quinn on Mar 22nd 2025

Hey Beautiful! 

Are you ready to glow from the inside out?

After 40, our collagen levels naturally decline, which can lead to fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of elasticity. But don’t worry—there’s an easy (and delicious!) way to support your skin and boost your collagen naturally: homemade bone broth!

This rich, creamy drink is packed with skin-loving nutrients, anti-inflammatory ingredients, and healthy fats to keep your skin hydrated, plump, and glowing. The best part? It only takes minutes to make, and it’s a cozy, satisfying treat for any time of day.

Alex's Secret Recipe: Easy Collagen-Boosting Bone Broth (takes about 15 minutes to make if using his recipe)

Ingredients:

You’ll need the following ingredients to create this skin-supporting powerhouse:

  • Organic Bone Broth

  • Garlic Salt

  • Black Pepper

  • Cayenne Pepper (for a metabolism and circulation boost)

  • Turmeric (known for its anti-inflammatory properties)

  • Ginger (supports digestion and reduces bloating)

  • Grass-Fed Butter (provides healthy fats for skin hydration)

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) (rich in antioxidants)

  • Squeeze of Lime (adds brightness and extra vitamin C)

Instructions:

Making this creamy bone broth is super simple:

  1. Heat the Bone Broth
    Pour the bone broth into a pot and heat it on the stove over medium heat.

  2. Add the Flavorful Ingredients
    Sprinkle in garlic salt, black pepper, cayenne, turmeric, and ginger. Then, add a tablespoon of grass-fed butter and a drizzle of EVOO. Squeeze in a bit of lime for a refreshing twist.

  3. Blend Until Creamy
    Carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. (Pro tip: Let it cool slightly before blending to avoid steam & pressure buildup if you're using a Nutribullet).

  4. Enjoy!
    Pour your rich, creamy bone broth into your favorite mug, sip, and enjoy the skin-boosting benefits!

Why This Bone Broth is a Game-Changer for Your Skin

Here’s why this recipe is so powerful for women over 40:

  • Collagen Support: Bone broth is naturally rich in collagen, which helps reduce fine lines, improve skin elasticity, and promote a youthful glow.

  • Anti-Inflammatory Benefits: Turmeric, ginger, and cayenne pepper are known for their anti-inflammatory properties, which can help calm redness and inflammation in the skin.

  • Hydration & Healthy Fats: Grass-fed butter and EVOO provide healthy fats that keep your skin soft, smooth, and hydrated from the inside out.

  • Better Digestion, Better Skin: A healthy gut is linked to clear, glowing skin. The ingredients in this broth support digestion and overall gut health, which can reduce bloating and improve your skin’s radiance.

How to Incorporate Bone Broth into Your Routine:

Sipping on this creamy bone broth is a great way to wind down in the evening. You can even batch-make it and store it in the fridge for quick and easy access throughout the week (we have silicone trays we use when we make a lot).

I personally like to make it on days when I want to eat lighter or feel bloated and it's like a warm, cozy hug from a mug while I'm unwinding and watching my home renovation shows. :)

While bone broth works wonders from the inside, don't forget about your topical skincare! Retinol and Vitamin C are two powerhouse ingredients that can help boost collagen production when applied directly to your skin. 

Incorporating these ingredients into your skincare routine alongside your bone broth will give your collagen levels a double boost for glowing, youthful skin!

Remember, the more you know the more you glow!
