Nowadays, to do this, you'll need to make your own bone broth, or buy it from a place that makes the "real" stuff. The nutrients from traditional broth is now generally substituted with an MSG-based stock for flavoring.
The phenomenon prevailed in the U.S. as well during the same time period. "Mineral waters," i.e. iron-rich springs, were valued for their supposed medicinal qualities, and resorts sprang up around them at places such as Saratoga Springs, NY and Schooley's Mountain, NJ that catered to the cream of society at the time.
In Germany we still have a category called Heilwasser (literally healing water) for mineral water with a high content of one mineral and is treated by law as medicine.
