Gelatin also absorbs water and helps keep fluid in the digestive tract, promoting good intestinal transit and healthy bowel movements. Gelatin can also improve gut integrity and digestive strength by enhancing gastric acid secretion and restoring a healthy mucosal lining in the stomach low stomach acid and an impaired gut barrier are two common digestive problems in our modern society.

Those eating lots of animal protein need adequate glycine to balance out the methionine from meat, and you’ll get that from gelatin. We don’t want high homocysteine in our blood because homocysteine is a significant risk factor for serious diseases like heart disease, stroke, mental illness, and fractures. (This might even explain why researchers sometimes find a correlation between high meat intake and various diseases.) Muscle meats and eggs are high in methionine, an amino acid that raises homocysteine levels in the blood and increases our need for homocysteine-neutralizing nutrients like vitamins B6, B12, folate, and choline.

Traditional diets are typically much higher in gelatin than our modern diets, because these cultures wisely practiced nose-to-tail eating and consumed parts of the animal that are high in gelatin, such as skin, tendons, and other gelatinous cuts of meat. Plus, gelatin can be used to make a yummy, all-natural dessert that’s actually good for us. There are so many amazing benefits that can come from eating gelatin, including improvements in digestive, skin, and mental health.
