Grass-Fed Beef Bone Broth - Shiitake Mushroom

Bone broth is one of the most paleo things you can consume! Ingredients: Cow bones, Argentinian beef tongue, chicken feet, onion, daikon, shitake, leek, star anise, cloves, black pepper, fleur de sel. Keep refrigerated after thawing - can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days. We suggest heating up in a pot on low heat or in a microwave-safe mug on a medium or high setting for 15 - 30 seconds. For thousands of years, our ancestors made full use of the animal (after eating the organs and the meat) by tossing the bones, cartilage/connective tissues, marrow, and the rest into a broth which simmers for many hours on low heat. The result is simply the most nutrient-dense beverage you can drink. For starters, properly-made bone broth is absolutely chock full of collagen, which is well known for its restorative ability for your skin, gut, and brain tissues - among many other things. (Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body.) What a lot of people may not know is that bone broth is also very high in glycine - an important amino acid to consume if you consume a lot of lean cuts of meat (guilty!), which can lead to having too much methionine in your diet (often cited as a reason to avoid red meat). Glycine counteracts the impact of high methionine - keeping your liver in shape and regulating inflammation. Long story short - regularly drinking a high-quality bone broth allows you to replicate the huge nutritional benefits of nose-to-tail eating, which is especially important if you eat a lot of meat. Naturally, we use only bones and marrow from pasture-fed animals, which is then simmered for 10+ hours before skimming off the solids. Our beef & shiitake mushroom flavor combines the nutrient density of the broth, made from grass-fed and grass-finished beef bones, with the time-tested immune and cognitive benefits of shiitake mushrooms (not to mention their unique flavor, which rounds out the beef broth flavor very nicely!).
