Bone Broth

       
     People all over the world know the importance of bone broth and its benefits throughout their generations. It was the number one recommendation by doctors to patients when ill. What did your grandmother give you when you were sick? I bet it was some kind of broth, wether its beef, chicken or fish. Bone broth is the key word, it is also know as stock. Bone broth is animal parts that you cannot eat like bones, ligaments, tendons, etc simmered for 12 to 48 hours. Bone broth is nutrient-dense making it is easy to absorb the nutrients and digest.
     Your immune system is the most important function in your body. If you have a healthy immune system you rarely get sick. It can even be genetics to have a great immune system that you don't have to worry about maintaining it while, others really have to work at it. Bone broth Improves your immune system by rebuilding and strengthening it. If your immune system is weak sickness comes quick, yes, I just came up with that, lol.  One of the healing compounds that is released in the Bone broth is Arginine, which heals the immune system as well as helps generate damage liver cells. Proline, Glutamine, Glycine are other compounds found in the bone broth giving great benefits and healing to our bodies. It also helps reduce inflammation, allergies, brain health, reduces cellulite by connective tissue, increase hair growth, boost detoxification , maintain healthy skin.

   Here are a few links for more detail on the benefits and amino acids found in the bone broth.

     Remember homemade is better than store bought. It is not hard to do nor it is expensive. Store broths are filled with GMO and other fillers that you will not get the proper nutrient or benefits it has to offer. I hear many people complain how it takes so long to do. No, it really doesn't. Prep time is 15 minutes and the rest you can let it cook over night. You do want to get the best ingredients which is grass fed animal bones. The main things you need to make bone broth is animal bones with or without meat, water, apple cider vinegar. The rest is optional. For me, I love to add onions, garlic and herbs. There are a few different ways of doing the broth, some say to roast the bones for better flavor. My preference is boiling the bones with meat for two hours. Then, I remove the big junks of meat and keep the rest simmering for 12 hours. On the last two hours, add the onions, garlic, herbs etc for taste.
Once it is complete, let the bone broth cool down and put into glass jars for storing.
       I make bone broth twice a week and love to drink it every morning for breakfast.  It has become a major part of my life. It is like taking a multivitamin but with natural minerals not lab made. It has made a difference for me on my side effect from chemo. It has also helped me with my strength and endurance in being able to work out. I recommend bone broth to everyone not just people who are fighting a disease but also to the healthy people for a good source of minerals.
