The 2021 Athletes of the Year

By Dawn Weatherwax, RD, CSSD, LD, ATC, CSCS

Bone broth is a home remedy worth adding whether you live in a cold or warm climate.

 

Bone broth has been around for thousands of years! It is known to be used when feeling under the weather, but definitely can be integrated daily.

WHAT IS BONE BROTH?
Bone broths are easy to digest, nutrient-dense, rich in flavor and boost healing. They are made from beef, chicken, fish, lamb and more. The simmering effect of the parts release healing compounds and minerals (see box at right) that have been found to help with poor gut health, joint well-being, strengthening the immune system, detoxifier, and positively impacts muscle tissue, bone, circulation, metabolism and wound healing.
Be aware of imposters. Stocks, meat flavors and bouillon cubes are not the same. Ideally, you want to make this recipe from scratch. For beef broth, use grass-fed or organic bones, and for chicken, simply use the carcass and bones.

HEALING COMPOUNDS AND MINERALS
• Amino Acids
• Arginine
• Calcium
• Chondroitin Sulfate
• Collagen
• Gelatin
• Glycine
• Glucosamine
• Glutamine
• Glutathione
• Magnesium
• Phosphorus
• Potassium
• Proline
• Silicon
• Sulphur
• And others v

HOW TO MAKE IT
For the classic bone broth recipe, the essentials are bones, fat, meat, vegetables and water. Here’s how to roast the bones to make your own bone broth, using either chicken or beef broth based on your preference. The recipe directions are by Dr. Axe (DrAxe.com):

1. Place bones into a large stockpot or slow cooker, and cover with water.

2. Add two tablespoons apple cider vinegar to water prior to cooking. This helps pull out important nutrients from the bones.

3. Fill stockpot or slow cooker with filtered water. Leave plenty of room for water to boil.

4. Heat slowly. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to simmer for at least six hours. Remove scum as it arises.

5. Cook slow and at low heat. Chicken bones can cook for 24 hours. Beef bones can cook for 48 hours. A low and slow cook time is necessary in order         to fully extract the nutrients in and around the bone.

6. You can also add in vegetables, such as onions, garlic, carrots and celery, for added nutrient value.

After cooking in the slow cooker, the broth will cool and a layer of fat will harden on top. This layer protects the broth beneath. Discard this layer only when you are about to eat the broth.

Of course, if you just don’t have time, you can buy bone broth protein powders or capsules. Dr. Axe/Ancient Nutrition Bone Broth Protein is a good brand.
