The Healing Power of Chicken Bone Broth
Hippocrates stated "Let your food be your medicine and let your medicine be your food." Bone broth, as used throughout history, has been affectionately known as "Jewish penicillin."
Bone broth is still made and ingested today by people around the globe. Healing bone broth is made from organic, raw chicken bones and cooked over a 24-hour period for maximum mineral extraction. This mineral rich liquid is made by simmering the bones of free range chicken, traditional vegetables, as well as herbs, and a small amount of raw apple cider vinegar, all in Artesian well water to produce a delicious elixir. We love using this product in our gut repair protocols and to strengthen immunity.
