Recently, the tendency to consume has spread bone brotha food with many properties, appreciated by stars across the Ocean and which has become a “must” in the diets of many fit influencers.
What is special about this broth and why is it so successful? What are the real scientifically proven health benefits? All the answers, including those related to side effects, are explained by nutritionist Debora Rasio, who revealed in her book the secrets of the latest food trend worldwide.
Its therapeutic properties have been talked about for over 200 years
Bionutritionist, researcher at Sapienza University in Rome, author of the book “The diet for life – How to eat and when to post to promote well-being and longevity”, Debora revealed the secrets of the latest food trend.
“Bone broth has always been an integral part of the culinary traditions of all peoples, playing an important medicinal role, especially in Europe. For at least 200 years, people have been talking about the therapeutic properties of bone broth and the gelatin obtained from its prolonged cooking, considering them beneficial for digestive problems and for convalescence.
The populations of the past used all parts of the animal for food, not just the meat, preparing broth with bones, tendons, scraps and even the vegetables they had available.
It is essential to add parts of the connective tissue of the animal, parts of fat, a little meat, but especially vegetables. Vegetables enrich the broth with minerals, which in reality are not as abundant only in bones as is commonly believed…”, says the specialist.
“Collagen is part of the gelatin that forms with the prolonged cooking of bone broth. It is a complete protein useful for the structure of bones, joints, skin and tissues, of which it stimulates endogenous production.
Today, collagen supplements are used a lot, but the gelatin in the broth has the advantage that it dissolves better when cooking, stimulating the production of gastric and pancreatic juices and therefore improving the digestion and absorption of other substances taken in the diet as well,” she says. about advantages.
Beware of glutamate
He also talked about contraindications or side effects when taking bone broth. “Some people may be sensitive to the glutamate naturally present in bone broth after prolonged boiling. Additionally, as histamine builds up, those who are intolerant to it may have some problems. In these cases, it may be useful to start with low doses to test tolerability.
Caution: It must be distinguished from the more widespread monoindose glutamate found in many industrial foods and fast food products, in a less natural form that can be more inflammatory. Glutamate naturally present in bone broth after prolonged boiling instead has a more compatible molecular structure. And the doses in which it is taken are smaller”.
Americans recommend bone broth as a detoxifier. Here is the answer from science: “Some amino acids such as glycine contained in bone broth have demonstrated detoxifying effects on the liver. However, vegetables and plant foods are more suitable for a complete detoxification diet, given that today we already tend to have an excess of animal proteins”.
