{Note from Jessica: Today’s post is shared by my sweet friend Renee, author of Raising Generation Nourished. We became friends several years ago and I am continually impressed with her desire to help change the world, starting with our newest generation. Real food has to be the core of our health and should start in the womb. Considering this is the first time in history that our children are expected to die before us, something HAS to change. I’m honored to call her a friend. I hope you’ll stop by her site, Raising Generation Nourished, and say hello!}

~~~~~~

One of the very first things I learned how to make on my journey to eating more real food was how to make bone broth.

I had read “Broth is Beautiful”, got my slow cooker out to make my first whole slow cooker chicken, threw the bones back in the slow cooker, made my first batch of brothand completely fell in love.

Fell in love? That’s a bit of a stretch to say, no?!

Not in the least for me! The simple task of teaching myself soup making has not only given me a way to learn how to cook (YES – I had zero cooking skills!), but it also played a huge role in the healing of my gut.

Your immune system takes up most of its residence in the gut, so if your gut is off, your whole body follows.

Making bone broth the right way draws out gut-healing gelatin and vital minerals our bodies need to operate. Most of us are just plain mineral depleted. We are either not eating the right kind of food, or our bodies are not absorbing minerals well – in many cases both are true.

The minerals in bone broth are much easier for the body to absorb, and the gelatin will help heal your gut lining.

The gelatin in bone broth does heal the gut lining, but it is also a great protein source. We do have soup most days of the week all year long because of the nourishing benefits, but also because it helps me stretch my meat budget.

SO HERE’S MY CHALLENGE!!!

Bone broth. DAILY.

Yes, you can do it! It is so worth it! It is so worth filling you and your family with an immune boost. It is so worth not getting sick *every* single month during the fall and winter. Your kids are worth it. YOU are worth it.

And don’t forget the kiddos! Bone broth makes a fantastic baby’s first food (read some tips on how to start bone broth with baby HERE), and when you start them young, they will drink mug after mug for you as they get older! Soups are super kid-friendly, and even the pickiest of toddlers will love soup purees when you make them the right way!
