I'm sure you heard of Bone Broth.  Its seems I hear about it everywhere. You get nutrients that will support your immune system, good digestion, and brain health. Its not trendy. Its been around for along time.

I think grandma was right…That chicken soup WAS really good for the soul. Hey it always made us feel better when we were sick. There is more to that though. There are over 19 easy-to-absorb, essential and non-essential amino acid. Bone broth contains collagen, which can stop the spread of cancer. Bone broth helps to reduce inflammation. It also helps heal the gut. At least 80 % of all immune system cells reside in your digestive system. Regularly drinking bone broth assists the body’s natural detoxification pathways by helping the digestive system remove waste. It strengthens the liver.

After all that info no matter if you have Cancer or not you should incorporate Bone Broth into your diet. I made it super easy for my 14 year old. I use it to make Soups. There is a need to detox our children when they are going through rounds and rounds chemo, this is one easy way to begin supporting their bodies own ability to detoxing. Simple easy steps to support your child or yourself. 





Here is the way I make mine. I either use a chicken carcass (what is left over from the whole chicken) or I get two pounds of bones. I always use a good source.  I cut up a whole Onion skin and all throw that in with Garlic of coarse (4-8 cloves) 2 carrots, 2 celery,  Thyme,or Cilantro or both (whatever herbs you like, I've used Bay leaf as well) Two Tablespoons of Apple Cider Vinegar and Water to cover the ingredients. I use my crock pot on low for  24 to 48 hours. You can do it for 2-4. I like to do it longer. Sometimes I've also added Astragaulas Root (1Tablespoon) Strain, let cool.  It will become gelatinous. You can  then poor into jars to keep in freezer or use in whatever you make. Hey use it  to cook your rice, or make a soup.

One of the things I felt most important for me during this whole time, was Aswagandha. Aswagandah is a Ayurvedic Herb. I knew I was going through stress. I didn't want to get sick I had my whole family to take care of. Aswagandha can help alleviate these symptoms and support an energetic and rejuvenating sense of wellbeing.

Aswgandha can help:
~Protects the immune system
~Helps combat the effects of stress
~Improves learning, memory, and reaction time
~Reduces anxiety and depression without causing drowsiness
~Helps reduce brain-cell degeneration
~Stabilizes blood sugar
~Helps lower cholesterol
~Offers anti-inflammatory benefits

One of the formulas that I took during this time was Hero's Blend Spagyric Tincture by Portland Ashwagandha farm. This one is my most favorite.




The other formula that I took was Himalaya's Aswagandha. Both I really love and could tell was helping. Aswgandha also helps with your response to stress. Its an Adaptogen. Supporting adrenal function helping you overcome adrenal fatigue and chronic stress.
