Boosting Immune Function
Beautiful souls. I hope you are well, your coffee is strong, and your holidays are going well.
Let's be clear. If you aren't focusing on boosting your immune function on a daily basis let's start today.
Shall we?
I will start a series of emails based on boosting immune function.
This morning's email is based on the power of bone broth.
Before you turn your nose and start to make excuses allow me to enlighten you:
The stuff in the store tastes gross I agree
Make your own!!!!
Crock pot it
Strain it and sip it when cravings occur
Don't strain it and eat all of it!
Benefits:
Rich in amino acids which are the building blocks of the immune system
Amino acids regulate the immune system and are needed to produce antibodies that fight infection
Some amino acids have antiviral properties
Can reduce inflammation
Protect the brain and nerves
Repair damaged tissues
It is a superfood
