Gelatin is an extract of collegen from the bones, horns, hooves, connective tissue, etc of animals that our smart ancestors used to boil down for many hours to make soup broths...we don't usually bother any more. What's there to boil anyway when people purchase choice peices of boneless meat ???
HERE IS WHAT WE ARE MISSING: It reduces inflamation ....good for arthritis and rheumatic pains, osteoarthritis and osteoporosis and promotes faster healing after sports injuries *helps sleep patterns *improves insulin sensitivity and lowers blood sugar levels *lowers blood triglyceridelevels *helps heal the mucus lining of the digestive tract (and colitus) *It is ant-aging...digenerative and inflamatory diseases can often be corrected by use of gelatin *gelatin canhelp stroke recovery if taken immediately It HAS NERVE STABILIZING PROPERTIES and anti-inflamatory action (Isn't this thought provoking!!!) *gelatin taken 3 times a day( 18gr in a 10% solution )can quickly control nosebleeds and bleeding from hemorhoids, ulcers,bladder, bowels GLYCINE- (one of the main amino acids in gelatin) helps promote wound healing, helps inhibit tumors growth, promotes natural sleep... AND IMPROVES MEMORY and LEARNING...WOW!! Gelatin is unusually high in Glycine and Proline ( non-essential amino acids that the human body can make itself) and some lysine. BOTH TRYPTOPHAN & CYSTEINE inhibit thyroid function (which slows down our functioning) and MITOCHONDRIAL ENERGY PRODUCTION...... taking gelatin helps alleviate this problem caused by these things we need so desperately also . Anyway, Aunt Bean has taken a Tablespoon of gelatin in water 3 nights now before bed and has slept better. I bought a jar of kosher gelatin many, many years ago and used it twice....it has come out of the deep recesses of my cupboard and will be used faithfully now...I even included it in my batch of fava sprout balls yesterday (2 TBS disssolved into the warm starting liquid) They froze well and taste great! GELATIN >>>another step toward whole food solutions for us Blessings....................Love, Aunt Bean |

Personally, I do not do well on meat. I have never consumed large amounts in my lifetime...did eat 2 homegrown beef burgers one time at my brothers farm in Ohio after working in the hayfield all day and they didn't have vegies (just burgers/ chips/ desert)
So I ate 2 and shocked everyone...next day felt lousy too (but I didn't starve at least) (BY The way...off topic, my brother is being sent home from the hospital & put on hospice ..he has PD and only 1/4th of his heart is working now,, even after open heart surgery /valve repair/ pace maker, etc..he is 5 years older than me..he has been a big meat, milk, junk food eater)Pray for Larry and his family. Back to topic....I also have cancer, that stays shrunk and doesn't bother me by taking Essiac Tea since 1996. I have had a couple of bouts of tumors growing fast and it was not very pleasant and determined that it was because I had eaten out and got meat that was fed hormones. After the last time in around 2004...I decided to just eat deer meat, fish, and organic eggs. If I eat deer meat too often or more than a very small portion...I don't feel good (even got gout from it a few months ago when we were given a large piece of deer and ate off it twice a day for a few days instead of freezing some. I usually don;t eat anything but whole grain muffins (usually gluten-free) fruits, and vegies..and .lots of beans, of course. |

recipee in GREEN PHARMACY BOOK pg341 for bone strengthening broth
Tying fish bones in a cloth bag (cheesecloth) boiling the water then turning on simmer for 30 minutes/ add chopped cabbage and greens and cook them til tender. Use as soup or as a base to add beans to for bean soup. This could be done with other bones of organically grown meats also (heavier, thick bones would naturally have to cook alot longer to extract the gelatin ( and collegen) Let's Make SOUP!! |

We made a bone broth out of bison bones, oooh howdy, it was gamey, don't know why I didn't expect it since it came from an animal we never eat. I tried to use it up by making rice and other grains with it, still a bit too gamey for us, not sure we will use bison bones again, just fyi.
Our gut doctor gave us a recipe which we've modified and it makes a great soup: boil a whole organic chicken in water, with lots and lots of celery and carrots cut in big chunks....add plenty of sea salt for minerals, pepper if you like. Add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to draw out the minerals in the bones (vinegar stinks, so we use lemon juice). It's important to leave the celery leaves intact, don't throw them out! After the chicken it cooked, take it out (mine usually falls apart but fish out all the pieces) and put it away in the fridge for later use....then run the entire rest of the pot (the cooked veggies and broth) through your blender, it will liquefy and you will have a most delicious broth for drinking anytime. Once you bone the chicken you've taken out, you can try to extract more from the bones if you like, boiling them again, but it's pretty weak IMHO. We've been drinking a cup of this in the morning for breakfast and it is very satisfying. And filling. There's no meat actually in it, so if you are worried about protein content interfering with sinemet, not a worry. You can throw any veggies you want in there, although there is just something magical about chicken and celery and carrots. We've just started this broth thing so as we go forward we'll get more experimental. I can say that beets don't really do much for the broth flavor although they do turn it a righteous magenta! Too early to tell if it has cured our PD |

I don't think it is a cure, but anything that helps sleep, inflamation, makes my bones tougher.........aside from all the other things on the list( like mitochondrial energy production) is for me. Now I have kosher gelatin on grocery list...my old jar is going down pretty fast...perhaps we shall get rid of the hen who is not laying right now and make soup...just hate to butcher meat...dad can have the chicken meat
I'll take The BONES! |
