The follow-up book to the hugely best-selling Nourishing Traditions,
which has sold over 500,000 copies, this time focusing on the immense
health benefits of bone broth by the founder of the popular Weston A
Price Foundation.
Nourishing Broth:
An Old-Fashioned Remedy for the Modern World
Nourishing Traditions examines where the modern food industry has hurt
our nutrition and health through over-processed foods and fears of
animal fats. Nourishing Broth will continue the look at the culinary
practices of our ancestors, and it will explain the immense health
benefits of homemade bone broth due to the gelatin and collagen that is
present in real bone broth (vs. broth made from powders).
Nourishing Broth will explore the science behind broth's unique
combination of amino acids, minerals and cartilage compounds. Some of
the benefits of such broth are: quick recovery from illness and surgery,
the healing of pain and inflammation, increased energy from better
digestion, lessening of allergies, recovery from Crohn's disease and a
lessening of eating disorders because the fully balanced nutritional
program lessens the cravings which make most diets fail. Diseases that
bone broth can help heal are: Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis, Psoriasis,
Infectious Disease, digestive disorders, even Cancer, and it can help
our skin and bones stay young.
In addition, the book will serve as a handbook for various techniques
for making broths-from simple chicken broth to rich, clear consomme, to
shrimp shell stock. A variety of interesting stock-based recipes for
breakfast, lunch and dinner from throughout the world will complete the
collection and help everyone get more nutrition in their diet.
