Benefits of Bone Broth

Hippocrates, the father of Western Medicine, says “all disease begins in the gut.” 70 to 80% of immune system in the gut and 90% of happiness begins in the gut (90% of the happiness hormone, serotonin is made in the gut). These days, even neuroscientists are looking to the gut as the root cause of brain issues, like depression and anxiety. Bone broth is wonderful because it helps to heal, seal and protect the gut.

Bone broth contains healing collagen, which is the most abundant protein in the body and makes up skin, hair, nails, muscles, teeth, bones, the heart, eyes, digestive organs, tendons, joints and more! The collagen in bone broth improves nutrient absorption because gelatin (or collagen) helps to extract more nutrients from foods eaten with it.

Studies Show Bone Broth Can Support the Following Symptoms

  • Leaky gut – In a healthy gut, the wall of the small intestine acts as gatekeeper, letting through water and needed nutrients and keeping out harmful substances. However, poor diet, medications, and bacterial or fungal overgrowth can compromise the lining, causing leaky gut. Symptoms are varied but can include food sensitivities, allergies, headaches or migraines, arthritis, eczema, hives, and chronic fatigue.
  • Leaky Brain – A leaky gut can contribute to oxidative stress or inflammation in the body, causing the blood-brain barrier to become “leaky,” whereby molecules and toxins that are not supposed to enter may get into the brain.
These conditions are associated with a permeable or leaky blood-brain barrier:

ADD, brain fog, memory issues, mood disorders (depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, etc.), Alzheimer’s. (need adequate amounts of magnesium, energy and antioxidants). One way to test this is to take GABA, an amino acid. If you take when stressed and you feel calmer, you may have a leaky BBB.

  • Weight issues – L-glutamine in bone broth helps to reduce the bacteria (firmcutes) that cause weight gain.
  • Muscle loss – amino acids help with growth, maintenance and muscle repair.
  • Dehydration – bone broth helps to hydrate the body, particularly after a workout, when electrolytes (minerals) need to be replenished in the body.
  • Weak nails
  • Symptoms of aging, including wrinkled skin, dry skin, and dry or falling hair
  • Can prevent tumors
  • Arthritis and joint-pain
  • Diabetes, blood sugar and insulin issues
  • Sleep problems
  • Issues with bleeding – nosebleeds, heavy menstruation, ulcers, hemorrhoids, and bladder hemorrhage
  • Digestive issues – GERD, colitis, celiac disease, ulcers, IBS, SIBO, and other inflammatory gut conditions
  • Immune problems – or autoimmune conditions
  • Colds and flu
  • Osteoporosis or osteopenia
  • Broken bones
  • Teeth issues

If You Try Bone Broth and Don’t Feel Well…

Here’s what to do if you have a long-term chronic condition (including epilepsy or mood disorders), or if you don’t feel well after consuming bone broth: switch to meat stock.  Meat stock is a gentler place to start because it’s less concentrated

and has fewer glutamates than bone broth. It’s made almost exactly like bone

broth, only you use a little more meat (rather than just bone), and you simmer it for 1.5 to 3 hours. Consume meat stock until your symptoms resolve and then switch to bone broth, which is simmered much longer and is more concentrated.

High Quality Bone Broth is All About the Ingredients

When you consume bone broth, you are taking in the essence of the animal. For this reason, it’s important to choose the highest quality ingredients that fit within your budget.

Ideas to Make Home Cooked Bone Broth Easier

  • Cook with friends or family – get together on a Sunday and cook together.
  • Use a slow cooker.
  • Make in bulk and freeze the extra to thaw when needed.
  • Start with a whole chicken carcass – finish the chicken, then cover the carcass with water to make bone broth. Add some chicken feet or necks for more collagen.
  • To reduce the smell when simmering broth – Use a slow cooker in your mud room, an extra bathroom, the basement or the garage. If you live in a warmer climate and have a covered outdoor patio with an outlet, you could consider that as well.

Bone Broth Products on the Market: What to Buy & What to Avoid

AVOID
  • Anything with Monosodium glutamate (MSG) – this excitotoxin is added to many processed foods, such as soups. It is often disguised with the following terms: natural flavoring, spices, vegetable protein, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, soy protein isolate, glutamic acid, enzymes, protein fortified, and yeast extract. Many people notice that they don’t feel well after eating foods with MSG.
While MSG is a form of free glutamates, it’s a very different form than glutamates found in real food, which could be why some people react to MSG in processed foods but not in bone broth, gelatin, or whole foods. MSG is a synthetic form of glutamic acid or D-glutamic acid (which may be responsible for promoting adverse health reactions) as opposed to real food L-glutamic acid, which is a precursor to neurotransmitters in the body.
  • Anything that is not organic and grass/pasture fed, including bone broth powders and pills (or at the very least, grass/pasture fed, antibiotic and hormone free, and fed with non-GMO food). This includes bone broth powders and pills! These products try to mislead you by labeling themselves as “Paleo,” which says nothing about the quality of ingredients.
  • Bone Broth Made with Water from a Questionable Source – Find out what water the manufacturer uses. If it’s filtered, ask how it’s filtered. Look for spring water, if possible.
  • Added Table Salt (Look for Sea Salt or Himalayan Salt) – If the salt listed is not sea salt or Himalayan salt, then it’s table salt, which is sodium chloride, the processed form of salt that is responsible for health challenges like swelling, heart, and kidney issues.
  • Bone Broth Powders in Keurig Cups – the plastic alone is full of toxins and is often filled with inferior ingredients.
  • Bone Broth Pills and Powders if you have epilepsy, mood issues, histamine issues or other severe digestive challenges. Because bone broth powder has been high heated and dehydrated, it is a more concentrated food. This can increase the glutamate content, which can exacerbate certain conditions. The glutamate (glutamic acid or glutamine) in bone broth is a nonessential amino acid (meaning your body can make it) with many health benefits, like aiding gut health. It’s an excitatory neurochemical that stimulates the brain, which is fine if you have enough calming neurotransmitters to create balance. However, in situations where someone has a leaky gut and a leaky blood brain barrier, consuming foods with too many glutamates is problematic, leading to unpleasant symptoms.
