Brasco Broth - Bone Broth Recipe

This begins my work schedule change and I’m SUPER excited to get back to normal with my work schedule!  I’m switching back to a normal shift rotation and cannot wait to feel back to normal again too!

You know those healthy things that you know you need to do, but just don’t make time to do?

This week, I’m FINALLY doing one thing that I KNOW I need to do for my own health.  I'm excited about finally cooking this bone broth recipe.  Bone broth is amazing for our health and has been on my to-do list for years now.  So at the end of this week, I'll be making bone broth.  And this is going to become a weekly habit for my health.

The benefits of bone broth are tremendous.  And if you have any type of intestinal condition, broth is a tremendous catalyst for healing of the intestines and helps with nutrient absorption within the intestines.
Here are just a few of the benefits.

Cooking this bone broth for about 24 hours ensures that it is easy to digest and helps the intestinal tract heal from any inflammation. 

Broth is FULL of minerals, dense nutrients and amino acids.

Broth helps support and boost the immune system with all of the dense nutrients.

Broth contains collagen and gelatin that cooks out of the bones to help our intestines heal and decrease inflammation.

The collagen in broth helps with joint lubrication and health.

Broth contains glucosamine and chondroitin to help decrease joint inflammation.

The collagen also helps keep our skin looking healthy.

The gelatin from the bones helps to restore the strength of the gut lining and helps fight food sensitivities.

Broth also helps keep our metabolism functioning at its best.

I’m going to share the bone broth recipe that my family uses.  It’s the Brasco Broth recipe created by Dr Joseph Brasco.

Ingredients:
1 whole chicken – organic is best
3 quarts water
2 to 4 tablespoons of sea salt
4 to 6 tablespoons of coconut oil
8 carrots (organic is best)
6 stalks of celery (organic is best)
2 to 4 zucchini (organic is best)
3 medium white or yellow onions
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
4 inches of grated ginger
5 cloves garlic
1 large bunch of parsley (added 30 minutes before the soup is finished)

Directions:
Place all ingredients into slow cooker and cover with water.  Simmer soup for 24 hours at low setting on crock pot.  Remove chicken from bones and add chicken meat back into the soup.  Once broth has cooled, skim off layer of fat from top.
