An anti-inflammatory twist on a classic bone broth recipe, this variation adds sweet potato, ginger, turmeric and cilantro. Sweet potatoes contain carotenoids alpha and beta carotene, which have both been associated with reducing inflammation. Ginger has been proven to contain antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea and anti-cancer properties, and has been used medicinally for thousands of years. Curcumin, the main active ingredient in turmeric, can act as an inflammation blocker and has been used in ancient Ayurvedic medicine for treating internal inflammation.

NOTES: Chicken feet are optional, but highly recommended! (Use in place of broth in almost any recipe (but take into account that it hasn’t been seasoned with salt). My favourite way to enjoy it is simply warmed in a mug with salt and pepper. -Can use it to cook grains, legumes, etc. (All you really need is bones, apple cider vinegar and water. This will give you a very basic broth. The other ingredients are extras for flavour and nutrients).
