Bone broth is an EXCELLENT bridge into solids. Not only does it provide essential nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, Vitamin A, K2, and minerals like zinc, iron, boron, manganese, and selenium, but it also contains collagen. Collagen helps support your infant's gut as he/she is being introduced to new foods/tastes/textures.

I also recommend using this as a great source for gut health during a stomach virus. You can make this easily and store in batches in the freezer.
