Bone Broth Health Benefits

hcg diet portlandThe health benefits of bone broth come from its rich nutrient content, including the protein collagen and the multittude of amino acids. Amino Acids are known as the “building blocks” of protein.  Consuming bone broth may support your overall wellness.  It can be beneficial for mental health, joint health, skin strength and immunity. Bone broth is rather safe. However, it is good to be aware of where the bones come from. Some bone broths may contain trace amounts of heavy metals and can lead to vitamin D toxicity if consumed in excess. Sourcing high-quality animal bones and making bone broth at home is one way to limit toxin exposure and increase the nutrient content.  This is a recipe that I share with all of my HCG DIET and bio identical hormone patients at The Natural Path.
