🎉 9 NEW YEAR'S HEALTH TIPS FOR YOUR BEST YEAR YET

New Year’s resolutions are famous for being bold. But sticking to them? That’s another story. Research shows less than 10% of people actually keep them.[*]

The secret? Setting goals that fit your lifestyle and turn healthy habits into effortless routines.

Whether you're aiming to boost your energy levels, improve your skin, or strengthen your immune system, these simple New Year’s wellness tips will have you feeling your best and ready to thrive:

🍲 START WITH A BONE BROTH CLEANSE

After the holiday season hustle, many of us feel sluggish and crave a wellness reset. A bone broth cleanse is the perfect solution!

Bone broth is a nutrient-dense superfood that’s been used for centuries to promote healing and vitality. It’s loaded with collagen protein, essential amino acids, electrolytes, and other whole-food nutrients.

That magic combo explains why bone broth benefits include everything from lower inflammation and improved gut health to better skin, sleep, mobility, and joint health.

On a bone broth cleanse, this ancient elixir becomes the star of your diet for a few days. It’s a simple and effective way to give your digestion a break from 2024 and start fresh in 2025.

👉 Check out this guide on how to do a bone broth cleanse to get started!

💪 PRIORITIZE PROTEIN

Protein isn’t just for bodybuilders. It’s the most essential macronutrient for your overall health.

Your body needs it to build and repair tissues, make hormones, produce antibodies to fight off pathogens, and support all your cells.[*] Protein also keeps you full and satisfied, giving your weight loss and weight management goals a serious leg up.

All protein consists of amino acids.[*] Our body can make some amino acids, but we must get others from our diet.[*]

Skimp on protein, and your body will steal those amino acids from your muscles and other critical parts. You’ll also cross into protein insufficiency territory and experience symptoms like:

Constant fatigue
A weakened immune system
Skin, hair, and nail problems
Poor mental health
Muscle loss and weakness
Increased hunger, food cravings, and weight gain

So this year, aim to hit your protein intake goals every day. Include a high-quality protein source in every meal and snack.

Protein-rich drinks make this challenge much easier. A serving of bone broth packs 10 grams of collagen protein per serving. Sip it on its own, or add it to your favorite smoothies and protein shakes!

You’ll have the perfect protein boost to keep hunger at bay and your energy levels high, whether you’re working out, dashing between meetings, or running errands.

🧘 MOVE YOUR BODY, YOUR WAY

Skip the January gym frenzy and find movement you actually enjoy. Curious about hiking a new trail, paddleboard yoga, hula hooping, or rowing? Give it a shot!

The more you like doing something, the more you’ll do it. And when it comes to fitness, it’s more important to create habits that stick — think consistency, not perfection. Small steps here lead to big, lasting changes.

❤️ SHOW YOUR GUT MORE LOVE

Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria that influence everything from your immune system to your mental health. You can better support your microbiome this year with these gut-friendly options:

BONE BROTH. Rich in collagen and gelatin, using bone broth for gut health helps lower inflammation, reduce digestive woes, and repair your gut lining.[*][*][*] A stronger gut lining enhances nutrient absorption, prevents leaky gut, and bolsters your immunity.

PROBIOTICS. These “good” bacteria improve digestion, balance gut flora, and support your overall health. Yes, please!

PREBIOTICS. This type of fiber feeds your probiotics. Think of them like fertilizer, helping those good bacteria flourish.[*] They keep your gut happy and work wonders for your weight loss goals, skin health, mental health, and more.

👉 Our guide to prebiotics explains why they’re an all-around wellness staple!

ELEVATED DRINK MIX. Our collagen and prebiotic drink mix combines the gut-loving power of collagen and prebiotics from agave inulin in one convenient packet. Add a stick to your water, and sip your way to better digestion, hydration, and gut health — it’s one mix with endless benefits!

✨ RETHINK YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE

Want youthful, glowing skin this year? Skip the risky procedures and expensive creams — natural collagen sources like bone broth offer a simpler solution.

Collagen is the primary protein keeping your skin firm and supple. Bad news? Our body’s collagen production slows down as we celebrate more new years (boo!), leading to wrinkles and signs of aging.[*][*]

However, research shows supplementing with collagen for skin health improves elasticity, hydration, and smoothness while reducing wrinkles.[*][*]

😌 STRESS LESS; BE MORE PRESENT

Stress wreaks havoc on your body and mind, so find new ways to unwind and be more present this year. Meditation, journaling, practicing gratitude and mindfulness, slow yoga, and calming walks in nature all lower stress levels.

For an extra dose of relaxing self-care, sip on bone broth. It contains the soothing amino acid glycine, which helps lower cortisol (your stress hormone), elevate serotonin (for better moods), and may even ease anxiety and depression.[*][*]

🛡️ FORTIFY YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

This year, make resilience your superpower! A stronger immunity means fewer sick days and more energy to achieve your goals.

First place to start? Your gut. Up to 80% of your immune system lives here.[*] Bone broth keeps your gut defenses high. And the amino acids in this immune-boosting broth help create antibodies to fight off pathogens.[*][*]

Our prebiotic drink benefits your immune health, too! Prebiotics stimulate the production of antibodies and immune cells to reduce the frequency and severity of the cold, flu, and other infections.[*][*]

🍹 REPLACE YOUR SUGARY DRINKS (FOR GOOD!)

Hydration is non-negotiable on your wellness journey. But sugary drinks cannot come with. They spike your blood sugar, pack on empty calories, and leave you craving more sugar.

There are so many low-sugar drink options on the market now — from sugar-free electrolytes to prebiotic soda. Unfortunately, navigating healthy sweeteners isn’t as easy as picking your favorite flavor.

So cut through the noise and keep it simple with:

INSTANT BONE BROTH. Our Beef, Chicken, and Ramen Instant Bone Broth flavors are a zero-sugar choice. Even our Lemon Ginger flavor contains just 1 gram of sugar per stick. They’ll help you say goodbye to sugary beverages and hello to natural, wellness-forward hydration.

💡 Fantastic, easy, and convenient on their own, you can also make your bone broth taste better with these tips!

ELEVATED DRINK MIX. With only 3 grams of sugar from natural agave and real fruit juice, our Lemonade, Fruit Punch, and Passion Fruit drink mixes deliver all the benefits of collagen and prebiotics without the sugar crash. They make staying hydrated feel like a celebration!
