6. Reduced inflammation Chicken broth has shown to alter neutrophil migration happening during an immune response and calm the immunity to an appropriate level.
7. Repair and Regeneration Fasting has shown to repair and regenerate tissues of the body including the immune system and pancreas. The raw materials for repair and regeneration are proteins such as collagen, amino acids and glycosaminoglycans such as glucosamine — all abundant in bone broth.
Collagen makes up more than 40% of the protein in the human body, and as we age the body slows the production of collagen. Consuming bone broth during a fast is a great way to provide the body with the raw materials it needs to repair during the fasting process.
8/9. Salt + Other Minerals DR GUS Bone Broths are rich in salt and other minerals that make up electrolytes that need to be consumed whilst fasting. Never attempt prolonged fasts without supplementing with salt and other electrolytes.
10. Increased Antioxidants – Glutathione Glutathione is one of the body's main antioxidants, made from glutamine and glycine — both amino acids found abundantly in our Bone Broth. During a fast glutathione levels can drop off, and supplementing with these amino acids has shown to increase glutathione production.
11. Improved Sleep The amino acid glycine helps sleep in several ways — assisting serotonin production and lowering body temperature at night. Better sleep means greater melatonin production, which is involved in so many repair and regeneration processes.
12. Fasting-Mimicking – Amino Acid Balance Methionine restriction can have fasting-mimicking effects, but this can also be achieved by simply adding more glycine into the diet. Drinking Bone Broth during a fast can quickly reduce the methionine to glycine ratio and supercharge the fasting benefits.
12. Reduced Cost of Bone Broth Replacing meals with a mug of bone broth will save money as meals are much more expensive than a mug of broth. Win-Win!
