We recommend beef bone broth to many patients. Yin and Blood-nourishing broth rich with collagen and gelatin has many anti-inflammatory properties. Our patients with arthritis, joint pain, and Gl issues such as IBS and Crohn's Disease find this beneficial for many of their symptoms. It is also helpful in patterns when these inflammatory issues manifest in skin problems, immune issues, and allergies. Many women's health issues can be mitigated by incorporating herbs and foods that are Blood-nourishing like this bone broth. All our cells need the proper fats/lipids to function. Our brains and nervous systems require these fats to function optimally. This is one of the simplest ways to ingest and absorb these lipids. Here's the bone broth recipe I recommend to everyone. 

▫️3-4 beef soup bones or 1-2 beef marrow bones (you can often find them in the frozen meat section - I find mine at Whole Foods in the same freezer where they stock frozen chicken nuggets)
▫️6 celery stalks
▫️1/2 yellow onion (I don't even bother peeling it)
▫️ 1-2 carrots (I just chop them in half to make sure they fit in the pot)
▫️2 or 3 green onions
▫️2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
▫️1-2 tsp black peppercorns
▫️1 tsp salt

Place everything in your slow cooker, fill to the top with water, and cook on the Low setting for 24 hours. 

Drink 8-12 ounces per day -- try this daily food-as-medicine for 30 days to see what changes you notice. Digestion, metabolism, body temperature regulation (this is especially for my pre- and peri-menopausal people or post-partum patients). This can benefit hair, skin, and nail health, and address numerous body aches and pains. All these symptoms are your body telling you it needs something. Try this out, and let us know what you think!
