Bone Broth Recipe


Delicious soups have an allure for any winter meal, but I have learned that there are outstanding health benefits to the regular consumption of bone broth. Many cultures serve broth as a staple in their diet, and there are fantastic health reasons to do so. The broth is easy to make, the trick is it takes a while to cook. Here is a summary of the key reasons to consume broth and a simple recipe.

This summary is provided Dr. Mercola

Reasons to Consume Bone Broth

  1. The gelatin found in bone broth is a hydrophilic colloid that attracts and holds liquids, including digestive juices, thereby supporting proper digestion

  2. Bone broth reduces joint pain and inflammation courtesy of chondroitin sulfates, glucosamine, and other compounds extracted from the boiled down cartilage

  3. Amino acids such as glycine, proline, and arginine in bone broth all have anti-inflammatory effects

  4. Bone broth contains high amounts of calcium, magnesium, and other nutrients that play an important role in healthy bone formation

  5. Bone broth can be made from any type of bones you like – chicken, beef, pork, or even fish – but seek bones from organically raised, pastured, or grass-fed animals
