BIRMINGHAM, Mich., June 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Good health is hard to find especially if you don't know precisely where to look. Dr. Kellyann Petrucci of Birmingham Wellness Center in Birmingham, Michigan believes that she has the solution with bone broth. Bone broth is so important for those interested in achieving optimal health that she recommends making it a routine part of the daily diet. Dr. Kellyann believes this is the fastest route to optimal overall health and wellness. "It doesn't hurt," says Dr. Kellyann, "that bone broth does so many great things for the body making it a critical source of nutrition for people from all walks of life."
Dr. Kellyann Petrucci of Birmingham Wellness Center is a board-certified naturopathic doctor, nutritionist, and lifestyle expert who also is a regular contributor on Fox Detroit. She creates diet and lifestyle plans designed to help people maximize their health in the simplest manner possible, by using natural wholesome foods. "Bone broth is one of those foods that heals the body on many fronts," says Dr. Kellyann.
In addition to encouraging the body to burn fat, bone broth is also essential for reducing inflammation, detoxifying organs, and healing the digestive tract. Dr. Kellyann also reports that bone broth is instrumental in healing the body of leaky gut syndrome (LGS), a condition believed to be a contributing factor in a wide range of chronic medical conditions including type one diabetes, food allergies, asthma, chronic fatigue syndrome, eczema, fibromyalgia, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and rheumatoid arthritis.
"LGS," says Dr. Kellyann, "is a condition that has such far reaching potential to do further harm, and bone broth can help eliminate it from the body by repairing the digestive tract."
Bone broth can be made from any bone, though the Birmingham, MI naturopath does recommend choosing bones that are from organic, pastured, or grass-fed sources of meat, such as turkey, bison, chicken, duck, lamb, pork, venison, goose, beef, or bison. Higher quality sources will yield better results but it isn't necessary to use prime cuts of meat, as things like chicken feet or knucklebones may be used.
"Bone broth is highly effective when used consistently," says Dr. Kellyann. "To get the best healing power and disease prevention benefits from the broth, people should eat at least one bowl of bone broth daily."
Of course that isn't the only step people must take towards optimal health. People must also look for ways to reduce or eliminate stress, and should consider using foods that contain healthy doses of vitamins A, C, and E along with L-glutamine and omega-3 fatty acids.
