Vegan alternatives to bone broth

Pretty much the title. I'm a vegan, have been for years and the idea of bone broth grosses me out (not judging, don't care what anyone else does or doesn't eat) so is there a non animal based alternative? Thanks

Check out Millie's Sipping Broth. It's got a green tea base and you brew it like a tea.

Vegetable broth

Yup. Vegan here as well. Vegetable broth works perfectly for me. I use it to break my fast. A few hours later I move on to a light meal.

I was under the impression that bone broth had more nutrients in but apparently not after looking at it. Thanks

Just remember that bone broth:

"It is rich in minerals such as calcium and magnesium, in forms the body can easily absorb. It is also rich in the amino acids glycine and proline, which are not found in significant amounts in the muscle of meat"

I imagine Dashi stock or anything with sea vegetables will be an alternative

Miso broth would be nice, lots of natural probiotics.
