Basic Chicken Stock

Short cooked meat stocks are the most important thing to include in your diet to heal and seal the gut lining. They contain everything that the body needs to repair and rebuild the gut. These stocks contain collagen, gelatin and elastin which are the building blocks of connective tissue. Make big batches at a time and freeze so you always have some on standby
