Bone broth!
Chicken soup, or broth β often hailed as βJewish penicillinβ β has acquired a reputation as a folk remedy for colds and βflu and is prized in many cultures as comfort food. Just about every country on the planet has its own version of chicken broth.
Traditional Chinese medicine has long prized their healing βcongeeβ β a well-cooked rice-based porridge often made with a stock from chicken feet. Itβs earned its reputation of βstock-on-steroidsβ!
Ayurveda, the ancient βscience of lifeβ in India has prescribed various versions of βkitchariβ (a well-cooked broth of rice, mung beans, vegetables and spices) to countless generations for detoxing and restoring weak digestion.Β I have written a whole series of articles on the wonders of bone broth:

The history and health benefits ofΒ bone broth are so impressive that I’ve devoted a whole chapter to it in my book, The Real Food Solution where I explain in detail how and why it’s earned its reputation, offer a number of recipes and suggest ways we can incorporate this important healing nutrient into our daily lives.
THE REAL FOOD SOLUTION
Our risk for contracting communicable diseases like the Covid-19 virus increases when our immune system is weak and a weakened immune system is largely the result of a less than optimal diet and an unsupportiveΒ lifestyle. Even as we are experiencing this current crisis, we are also seeing underlying epidemics of chronic diseases of every kind – diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, degenerative, digestive and autoimmune disorders across the globe. These conditions too, are largely diet and lifestyle-driven and they are preventable.
We need to act now
We have robust science to show us that what we eat has never been more important for our health and, because all life is inextricably connected, for our planet.Β The Real Food Solution will help you to discover the power of real food as medicine for better health.. for you and for our planet.
Crises like Covid-19 are a test our humanity… let’s stop queuing up for looΒ rolls and start creating a strong, resilient foundation of immune health… together.
