Nourishing Broth
Nourishing Broth: An Old-Fashioned Remedy for the Modern World
Collagen for healthy gut, joints, cartilage, skin, nails, hair
NOURISHING BROTH will explore the science behind broth's unique combination of amino acids, minerals and cartilage compounds. Some of the benefits of such broth are: quick recovery from illness and surgery, the healing of pain and inflammation, increased energy from better digestion, lessening of allergies, recovery from Crohn's disease and a lessening of eating disorders because the fully balanced nutritional program lessens the cravings which make most diets fail. Diseases that bone broth can help heal are: Osteoarthritis, Osteoporosis, Psoriasis, Infectious Disease, digestive disorders, even Cancer, and it can help our skin and bones stay young."
Slow Cooker
Learn how to make delicious porridge using rye, wheat, millet, quinoa, and lentils plus properly prepared beans like pinto and black beans with rice.
Learn why the "gluten problem" isn't just gluten, but mainly how we prepare our grains. Make gelatin and bone broths. My favorites are chicken feet, knuckle bones, neck bones, oxtail, and marrow bones preferably from local pasture-raised livestock. |

Nourishing Fats
Sally Fallon has written extensively on the lack of fats in our modern diet which leads to an insufficiency in those vitamins that are fat soluble. In my classes I read passages from Fallon’s book before lunch – even when the meal is vegetarian! This is invaluable knowledge and those who refuse to consider it do so at their own health risk." - Scott Pittman

People seeking health today often condemn certain food groups — such as grains, dairy foods, meat, salt, fat, sauces, sweets and nightshade vegetables — but the Wise Traditions Diet is inclusive, not exclusive."

Canning Jars and Fermenting LidsCanning jars like Mason or Ball for lactofermentation.
Make your own sauerkraut, Kim-chi or other vegetables by chopping up cabbage and/or favorite veggies like carrots, ginger, onions, garlic and/or beets and simply placing in the jars with sea salt. Or traditionally you would use a crock to start the process and then transfer to jars. Add water, sea salt, and inoculate with starter culture (kefir, yogurt, whey or kombucha). Salt inhibits pathogenic bacteria, like botulinum (causes deadly botulism). You want an acidic environment (< pH 4.6) in the end. Use proper amounts of salt. Set on the counter for several days, then place in cold storage like fridge or cellar to finish fermenting. Ready to consume in a week or so and will keep for many weeks or months. Lactofermentation is an age-old preservation method. It requires no heating or cooking. And the food is alive, brimming with digestive enzymes and probiotics, unlike canned foods. And you can take a shot of the juice straight or use it in an electrolyte beverage with meals. Use pH testing strips to test end product is below 4.6 when it has finished fermenting. If it isn't tangy, sour, and acidic, then it did not ferment properly or isn't finished. Don't be afraid to start over. If it doesn't smell right, then trust your nose! Sauerkraut can give off strong odors because of sulfur compounds, so don't assume it's bad. DANGER: Watch for carbonation and watch out if the top is popping. Jars can explode! Use fermenting lids or burp the lid to allow gases to escape during fermenting process. Molds can develop on top of food in crock or jar. Scrape it off, or you can throw it all in the compost bin and start over if its too bad. Follow fermentation safety. |
