How This Nourishes Your Body

“A cure-all in traditional households and the magic ingredient in classic gourmet cuisine, chicken stock or broth made from bones of chicken, fish and beef builds strong bones, assuages sore throats, nurtures the sick, puts vigor in the step and sparkle in love life–so say grandmothers, midwives and healers.”

Making your own chicken stock is so easy and nice to have on hand for numerous amazing recipes. You can make a big batch and store left over stock in the freezer to use when needed.

When you consume homemade stock you are loading your body with:

1. calcium
2. silicon
3. sulphur
4. magnesium
5. phosphorous
6. trace minerals
7. Glycine and proline, important amino acids
8. Collagen
9. Gelatin

All of these nutrients are essential for healthy skin. The more broth you consume, the more you will see your skin transform into something beautiful!
