Bone Broth - Benefits and Uses

Bone Broth - Benefits and Uses

I make bone broth for all of my postpartum clients - unless they have a diet restriction that prevents it! Why do I do this? Because it’s amazing for healing and I’ve seen how effective it is in supporting postpartum mums. I’ve helped new mums feel calmer, stronger and experience obvious changes in their breastmilk just from taking regular bone broth.

I often get asked more about it… so this blog discusses what it is, what the benefits are and ways to incorporate it into your diet.

As part of my support I make my birth and postpartum clients snacks to support their recovery and breastfeeding - they are so yummy that I am regularly asked for the recipes so I thought I’d publish them here in one place!
