A good direction to head in to get your health back on track is finding natural foods that give you multiple benefits.
We’ve spoken about multi-benefit cures like garlic, yogurt, CBD and more, but this one is up there on the list of most benefits from a single liquid.
This is something you’ve most likely digested before with a soup or cooked with a meat, but did you know about these 6 benefits? If not, I’m sure you’ll be upping your intake after this…
I’m talking about bone broth.
I know it may not sound like the most appetizing soup in the world, but it’s much better than it seems, PLUS it includes all of these benefits:
Benefit #1: Improved digestion
Bone broth contains a gelatin that does a couple of amazing things for your body. First, it protects the mucosal line of the digestive tract. And second, it helps your digestive juices by acting as a hydrophilic colloid.
Benefit #2: Defense against infections
Even more impressive is the fact that digesting bone broth could be your ticket to evading the common cold and even the flu this year!
Benefit #3: Skin, hair, and nails
If you’ve been an avid reader of my Natural Cures column, you know that I simply love collagen and everything it can provide. Well, the collagen in bone broth promotes stronger hair and nails, as well as healthier skin.
Benefit #4: No more joint pain…
To keep the collagen discussion going, bone broth’s glucosamine helps encourage brand new collagen growth in the body, which repairs joints, reduces joint pain, and defends against inflammation.
Benefit #5: Better sleep
One of my favorite benefits of bone broth comes from the amino acid glycine it contains. Glycine has a calming effect on the body, which then aids in the process of falling asleep.
Benefit #6: Stronger bones
The calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous in bone broth all help in the formation, growth, and repair of bones. So, a bowl of this natural soup could mean preventing bone injuries that oftentimes accompany aging.
So next time you’re in the grocery store, grab a couple containers of bone broth and watch the magic happen for yourself.
