Are there any safe, reasonably-undenatured bone broth brands?

Essential and toxic metals in animal bone broths

This study is really good, worth a read.
Basically, add some vinegar to increase pH so extracted Calcium, Magnesium is higher, Toxic Metals minimally affected, and lower Iron and unaffected Zinc extraction. I know Ray doesn't advise long cooking times but for Oxtail and Calf muscles from Beef 8 hours works for me, it way to get a good Gelatin broth from them. I guess the next step is to add some vinegar, although I don't know if that will denature Protein and Glycine too much.
