Slow simmering bone broth releases healing compounds like glycine and collagen. This type of broth trumps traditional broth, especially store-bought. The rich minerals help heal the gut and boost the immune system. For people with GI issues, bone broth can be used to help soothe the digestive tract and maintain a healthy gut. If you’re having skin issues, the collagen found in bone broth can help decrease puffiness while restoring connective tissue.
If you are feeling under the weather, stir in ground turmeric and black pepper into your bone broth and sip to soothe a sore throat and achy body. In autumn, beta-carotene-rich butternut squash adds sweetness and a festive vibe to bone broth. Coconut aminos add a savory zip along with 17 different amino acids. Ground cumin imparts an exotic flavor and warm aroma, creating a terrific base for a Mexican-style soup. Fresh herbs like thyme, ginger, fennel and cilantro infuse their unique healing and purifying properties right into the broth.
Tip: If adding fresh vegetables to bone broth, allow extra cook time to tenderize.
