BEEF BONE BROTH<\/span>
\nAs you may have seen on my Instagram<\/strong><\/a> I have recently embarked on a journey to properly\u00a0heal my gut\u00a0<\/strong>once and for all.<\/p>\n

I have, and still am, very exhausted and fatigued most of the day, my skin is breaking out – both with acne but also with chicken-skin across my body, I’m bloated, constipated and just a bit of a shell of a human, to be honest. At my lowest, and when I had a little mental breakdown on Saturday, I decided that enough is enough..<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, as I don’t receive Medicare, I’m not at the liberty of finding specialists and run tests that can help pin-point\u00a0what exactly\u00a0<\/strong>is wrong with me, so I’ve had to do what I’ve always done; research and read my way to (potentially) figuring out what’s going on with me.. I know that, on the back of cancer and eating disorders, I’ve had severe Gut-Health issues, so my thoughts are that my gut simply isn’t working, or that I am, in fact, suffering from\u00a0Leaky Gut<\/strong>..<\/p>\n

I’ll write further about\u00a0Leaky Gut\u00a0<\/strong>once I’m more into my new diet to see if it helps me. So far, it’s been very helpful the past 3 days, although I did have something last night that made my tummy flare up, and I looked 5 months pregnant.<\/p>\n

One of the things that is recommended on a\u00a0Leaky Gut\u00a0<\/strong>Diet\u00a0<\/strong>is to drink\u00a0Bone Broth<\/strong> twice a day (2 x 250ml) to heal your gut. Broth contains collagen and the amino acids proline and glycine that can help heal your damaged cell walls.<\/p>\n

See below for my\u00a0Beef Bone Broth Recipe:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • 2 kg of Beef Bones (from grass-fed cows – very important!)<\/li>\n
  • Water<\/li>\n
  • 4 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar<\/li>\n
  • 2 Carrots<\/li>\n
  • 2 Celery Stalks<\/li>\n
  • 1 Large Onion (with skin)<\/li>\n
  • 4 Bay Leaves<\/li>\n
  • 4 Cloves of Garlic<\/li>\n
  • 15 stalks of Fresh Thyme<\/li>\n
  • 10-15 Peppercorn<\/li>\n
  • 2-3 tbsp Salt (more to taste once done)<\/li>\n
  • 4 Curry Leaves<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Instructions:<\/strong><\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. \n
      Heat the oven to 240 degrees, and place all the bones in a baking-tray. Roast for 30 minutes to improve flavour.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    2. \n
      When the bones have roasted, place the bones in a large stock pot (with juices)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    3. \n
      Add cold water to the pot so it covers the bones and a bit more. Add the vinegar over the bones. Leave it for about 30 minutes so the Vinegar can help draw out the nutrients of the bones.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    4. \n
      Roughly chop and add the onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Leave the skin on the vegetables, just make sure you rinse it well.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    5. \n
      Add the rest of the herbs, spices, pepper & salt to the pot.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    6. \n
      Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and simmer until done. The longer you leave it to simmer, the more nutrients. However, I leave mine to for about 4 hours. You can leave it to simmer for up to 10 hours if you wish.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    7. Check on it every hour, and add more water if needed.<\/li>\n
    8. \n
      When finished, remove from the heat and let it cool slightly. Remove the bones with tongs, and strain the broth using a fine strainer to remove all the bits of excess fat & vegetable, so you get a clear broth.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
    9. \n
      You can store the broth in glass jars in the fridge for 4-5 days or freeze it for later.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \"\"<\/p>\n

      Hope you love it. Please let me know how you go.<\/strong><\/p>\n
