At the moment I’m in the UK and am finding my Mum’s local butcher gives away the bones for free! So what better opportunity than to make healthy broth and soup for the freezer!

Nutrient rich broth can help heal a damaged gut lining. To do this you need large amounts of easily digestible substances like amino acids, gelatine, glucosamine, fats, vitamins and minerals, all found in good quality bone broth. 

A healthy gut, a happy you! A good broth is rich in gelatine (a source of protein that helps counter the degeneration of joints) and collagen (which improves the condition of the skin).  Bone broths made with fish bones and heads, provide iodine and can help strengthen the thyroid.

Apple Cider vinegar acts as a solvent, helping to pull calcium and other minerals from the bones as it slowly simmers on the stove top.  It will also help break down the collagen in bones, releasing extra gelatine.
