Bone broth, or meat stock, is an ancient food that is regaining popularity today. If you are curious about broth - how to make it and what the value is - then tune in to today’s guest, Dr. Kaayla Daniel.
Dr. Kaayla Daniel is co-author of the book, Nourishing Broth: An Old-Fashioned Remedy for the Modern World.
Written along with Sally Fallon Morell, the well-known author of Nourishing Traditions, Nourishing Broth is ‘the Bible of broth,’ according to Dr. Daniel. It is a cookbook for many variations of broth, but also a historical and nutritional guide to this healing food.
On this episode, we discuss:
How to make a simple chicken stock today
How Florence Nightingale championed broth
How broth heals the gut
How broth is good for anxiety and sleep

Is PMS normal and inevitable? This is the first question I ask Dr. Lara Briden.
Dr. Briden, author of the new book, Period Repair Manual: Natural Treatments for Better Hormones and Better Periods, speaks candidly about PMS, and give practical advice for PMS sufferers.
We talk about:
Food cravings
Headaches
Breast tendernes
And more.
PMS is just one topic in her very practical book, Period Repair Manual, which recently became available in print and kindle versions on Amazon.
Dr. Briden has been working with women's hormones since the mid 90s, before natural medicine got more mainstream. If you are dealing with tough 'period problems' -from choosing birth control to treating PCOS- I highly recommend her book. You can also learn more about Dr. Lara at her website.
