I was asked my opinion on bone broth. Should you consume it? Let’s talk about this.

People usually eat a lot of muscle from animals, but not the rest of the animals. They eat a lot of meat from chicken, beef, lamb, and pork. The problem with this is that muscle is very high in methionine, an amino acid, whereas bone broth provides glycine with a different amino acid profile.

I also recommend consuming some organ meats too. The liver is the easiest to consume. You can get it in pate. My favorite is from US Wellness Meats, which sells liverwurst that also contains the heart.

When you consume bone broth, you can help your sleep and lower your blood sugars, along with building up your neurotransmitters. It will also provide gut support and joint support.

Bone broth is simple to make. Here’s an easy bone broth recipe:

● Three pounds of bones, preferably from a farmer’s market
● Put two gallons of water in a pot then add the bones
● Add two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and let everything sit for 30 minutes so the acid can help break down the minerals from the bones
● You can add herbs, spices, vegetables, and sea salt.
● Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 12 to 24 hours

The longer the broth simmers, the more nutrients are extracted. Your goal is to extract minerals, nutrients, collagen, and amino acids from the bones.

Let it cool, then strain the solids from the liquid broth. Store it in glass jars. I use it in soups and stews.

You can also buy pre-made bone broth. I like the broth from a company called Kettle and Fire. They use animals that are grass-fed, pasture-raised, and organic. They offer several flavors with excellent ingredients and no sugar or fillers. Their products are very keto-friendly.

So my opinion is yes, definitely consume bone broth!
