Bone Broth
Brewing a broth from bones and food scrapes is a wellness practice as old as time. Ancient cultures, across the world, have their vernacular version of broth and the benefits and remedies it bestows. Traditionally, the Chinese make broth to support digestive health, as a blood builder, and to strengthen the kidneys. In Egypt, the time tested chicken soup was used as a medicinal remedy for colds and asthma. There is an endless variety of broths but all draw out the deep rich marrow, fats, collagen and proteins from the bones that otherwise wouldn’t be utilized. Start saving your bones, carrot tops, onion skins and other kitchen scrapes. Once you start brewing broth, you will be reaping the all health benefits humans have been enjoying for centuries.

The herbs and roots are packed with healing properties, the ginger is an excellent digestive and the fermentation has wild strains of lactobacillus bacteria that also aid the gut in its digestive work. The bacteria eat up most of the sugar as they convert it to delightful bubbly fizz.
