    I hadn't heard of broth being a high calcium source before so I did a quick google search, and the first result says that bone broth being high in calcium is a hoax.

    Wrong type of product to be looking at if you're seeking out calcium specifically.

    If you’re doing non-dairy carnivore and need to increase calcium you can powder eggshells.

      Can also make broth from bone left overs - boil or pressure cook until the bone is soft ;)

    The calcium comes from the bones, which are usually boiled with the broth and tiny fragments of those bones become mixed into the liquid. And if you drink that broth then obviously you are consuming some of that bone. Bone is pretty complex though and it might just settle into a sediment at the bottom of the pot, and that usually gives broth an unappealing color or flavour. That's usually skimmed off and removed…

    The question is whether your body can absorb that calcium in the first place. My bet is that much of that calcium isn't bioavailable. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Calcium-HealthProfessional….
