Hey there!
Welcome back to the MOONLI Collective! So I wanted to share with you all a super easy way to make your own stock for your soup at home. Of course, you can buy the packaged stock at the store but you may have a food intolerance to something that is often found in most foods (garlic is in everything!) or you want to get as much nutrients as you can out of your stock.
Let's firstly define stock: this is made of any type of bones so chicken, cow, pig, deer, etc.
You can get some amazing benefits from stock that include
Vitamins & minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and trace minerals. From the marrow within each bone you are looking at getting even an additional hint of vitamin A, vitamin K2, zinc, boron, manganese, and selenium. They have also that is found to improve brain function, assist with sleep, and support the lining of your digestive system (McDonnel 2020). This is important because you need a strong lining to be able to properly absorb those nutrients for your entire bodies function!
