I love to make soups every week. It is getting chilly. Nothing like a warm bowl of soup. My daughter needs to drink soup weekly to boost her gut health. And bone broth will help to continue to improve her skin condition and her food sensitivity. The bone broth is good for the gut. The broth gives iron, mineral, collage, and is full of nutrients.
