18 | Bone stock FAQ - broth, stock, and collagen
what is bone stock or broth?
basically simmered bones. by simmering bones for an extended period of time, you get the nutrients from the bones and connective tissue into the liquid. this is the bone stock or bone broth.
why should people be adding bone broth to their diet?
we want to mimic nose 2 tail eating, and this is one of the easiest ways to do it without actually eating an animal nose to tail.
we get various nutrients from it:
what specific digestive benefits come from bone broth?
what vitamins/minerals/nutrients come with bone broth that we would not get within the SHT real foodie diet?
great question and I think from an intuitive standpoint, if we’re trying to eat now 2 tail and we aren’t, we’re missing out on some things without fully understanding what those are. but we’ve already mentioned the collagen, the bioavailable minerals, the glycine and just this idea that we’re getting parts we don’t normally get, which we may never fully understand how that works.
can you walk me through the basic creating process of bone broth?
see our recent video, post and podcast :)
what is the difference between bone broth and bone stock?
broth is simmering meat and veggies for a flavor. short time usuallyl 2 or 3 hours.
stock is usually using bones, and a medium period of time like 4 to 6 hours.
bone stock or bone broth implies 24 hours or longer. this is what we are looking for.
how much bone broth should we be consuming and how often?
if you're not consuming any, anything is going to be beneficial. work your way up to 1/2 quart to 1 quart per day consistently.
should we be consuming both a collegian powder AND a bone broth?
YES. bone stock is a holistic superfood with a lot of nutrient synergy. collagen is one component of bone stock, but we don't know how much is in the stock we make. we can't get too much collagen. so I would say in addition to bone stock, 1 to 4 scoops of collagen per day!
let’s say we can’t make bone broth from scratch, what brand should we shoot for buying?
