Story
A friend of mine was talking of issues with their Bladder, Kidney and Bones, which set my mind whirling about trying to see which ingredients could help, while also tasting delicious! The result is a comforting down to earth blend which knocks your socks off due to how different it tastes and smells! I’ve simply named it Bladder Kidney & Bones or BKB for short!
