Bone Broth Benefits | 5 Unique Ways to Use Bone Broth- Thomas DeLauer…
Break a Fast: Digestion-
Helps heal and seal your gut, and enhances the absorption of nutrients – the gelatin found in bone broth is a hydrophilic colloid, meaning it attracts and holds liquids, including digestive juices, thereby supporting proper digestion (protects and seals the mucosal lining of the GI tract.) Contains glutamine that has protective effects on intestinal mucosa by decreasing bacteremia and epithelial cell apoptosis, enhancing gut barrier function, and influencing gut immune response – glutamine can fight against bad gut flora by protecting against mucosal breakdown in the gut as well. Helps form connective tissue as the villi in your intestinal wall are actually built of collagen – helps to seal the protective lining of the GI tract.

Rehydration:
Sodium is the major cation (positively charged ion) found outside the cell – it regulates the total amount of water in the body and plays a major role in neuronal and nerve signaling. Potassium is the major cation inside the cell – potassium is essential for the proper functioning of the heart, kidneys, muscles, nerves, and digestive system. Magnesium helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps the heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong – also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure.

Fat Bone Broth:
Ex: Ghee- Contains virtually no lactose and is very low in casein – also contains butyric acid, which is used for energy by mucosal cells that line the wall of the colon (these cells get about 70% of their energy needs from butyrate)

ACV:
Upregulates PPARalpha gene expression and reduces AMPK in the hypothalamus AMPk being elevated in the hypothalamus actually stimulates hunger (stimulates ghrelin.) AMPk being elevated in the liver increases fat oxidation (fat burning) & vinegar increases AMPk in the liver and in fat cells
+ Cream of Tartar & Real Salt for Hydration.

ACV:
Lemongrass- Antioxidants of note are chlorogenic acid, isoorientin, and swertia japonica. These antioxidants may help prevent dysfunction of cells inside your coronary arteries. Two of the main compounds in lemongrass, citral and geranial, are thought to be responsible for its anti-inflammatory benefits.

Ginger:
Ginger acts as an anti-inflammatory agent by inhibiting NF-κB pathway – also contains gingerol, which increases the body’s levels of leptin by simulating the release of it.

Organic Mushroom Extract:
Mushrooms have the ability to suppress aromatase activity by inhibiting the proliferation of MCF-7aro cells.

Turmeric

Cook with It (Cauliflower Rice)

As a base for soups and stews
As a base for gravy and sauce
Use it to cook veggies in for extra nutrients

Ex:

People saute cauliflower rice with bone broth to give it 1) more flavor and 2) make it more tender, but for a more substantial example:

Fried Cauliflower Rice:
1 tablespoon grass-fed butter, ghee
2 pasture-raised eggs
1 tablespoon avocado oil
1/3 cup Bone Broth
3 cups organic cauliflower rice
2-3 tablespoons coconut aminos (soy sauce sub!)
1/4 cup pili nuts/macadamias/brazil nuts/etc.
Pre-Bed Concoction

Bone Broth Glycine:
Additional- Valerian root inhibits the breakdown of GABA in the brain and contains the antioxidants hesperidin and linarin, which inhibit excessive activity in the amygdala, a part of the brain that processes fear and strong emotional responses to stress. Magnesium increases GABA, which encourages relaxation as well as sleep. Theanine increases alpha waves, which are present during REM sleep
