    We have a 15 year old Golden Retriever and is in phenomenal health. He sometimes can be a picky eater and occasionally we will splash on some bone broth to his food and he devours it. šŸ˜Š

    Is well cooked beef bone broth the same as taking uc-2? I have RA and saw couple of your videos that taking alternative cartilage from chicken is a way to struggle with RA, as example. Please clarify. Thanks a lot

    Words matter. "Bone broth" that you purchase can be misnamed purposely to convince consumers to buy a high priced product "for health." There is a difference between broth, stock and bone broth, both in preparation and nutritional value.

    Broth is made by simmering meat and vegetables together for an hour or two and it doesn't gel when cooled. It is thinner and lighter than stock with around half the calories of stock or bone broth. The meat and vegetables are strained out after cooking, the vegetables usually discarded and the meat and broth then combined with new vegetables and/or noodles, rice, beans or potatoes to make soup. Broth can be served as a hot drink by itself or used to make gravies, cook rice or grains or to add flavor to other dishes.

    Stock, or soup stock, is made from simmered bones which congeals when cooled. Stock is usually simmered 6-8 hours. Vegetables can be added to simmering stock, usually carrots, celery and onions. Stock has about twice the calories as broth and many times the vitamins and minerals of broth. Both broth and stock can be used interchangeably in soups, stews, gravies, sauces, etc.

    Bone broth is made like stock but simmered for 12-48 hours with the addition of vinegar (or acidic food) which helps leach out even more minerals and vitamins from the bones than stock. It congeals when cool and is thicker than stock. Bone broth is usually drunk for its nutritional benefits but can also be used as any broth or stock and is the key ingredient in Vietnamese pho.

    Fat skimmed from all of these can be strained and used in cooking depending on the meat type you use for your broth, stock or bone broth. Pork fat (lard) and beef fat (tallow) can also be used to season cast iron but lard is most commonly used. Just as an aside, bullion is just dehydrated broth with a lot of added salt and chemicals. It comes either powdered or formed into cubes.

    Dr. Berg is telling you how to make a true bone broth. Unless the bone broth you purchase is simmered 12-48 hours with the addition of vinegar or other acid, you're just buying stock with an expensive label on it. I cannot speak about the brand the good Dr. recommended as I've never heard of it before.

    Instead of buying 3 LBS of bones, just keep in the freezer the bones from chicken wings, lamb chops, pork chops, t-Bones, ribs, roasts etc in a freezer bag until you have enough to fill a crock pot. They will produce a lot of gelatine, the cartilage will also dissolve.

    We raise our own animals. And I pressure can the meat then pressure the bones after we take the meat off. When we want to use the bone for broth we strain the liq then grind up the bones and pour the broth over the bones( using a strainer) and then the broth is ready to use.

    Hello, concerning the vegetables and herbs, would that be just for the flavor? I read that bringing some vegetables and fresh herbs to a boil before reducing and then cooking for several hours may destroy the minerals in the vegetables and the herbs?

    All great stuff – really! But for me the only problem Is that unfortunately they don't have a halal selection in their product range. And especially in the UK, there aren't really any feasible organic halal meat distributors which really sucks!

    By the way, you're doing a fantastic job! All the videos are really informative and the fact that it's coming from someone who is qualified gives me a lot of confidence!

    Thanks!
