Pho-inspired bone broth

These days, I’m thinking a lot more about joint support and exploring ways in which I can prevent future achy knees. And this is where collagen comes in. Collagen is found in skin, bones, cartilage and tendons - it is the main protein found in all connective tissues in our body and is especially important for the joints. Our body naturally produces collagen, however the amount gradually decreases as we age. So it is definitely something we should aim to replenish.

Bone broth, which is rich in collagen, is a natural and nutritious option. It is versatile and can be included in various meal preparations. Here is a quick and easy way I like to use broth, but feel free to use ingredients and spices that suit your palate :)

2 cups of organic chicken or beef broth 1 inch piece of cinnamon 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger ⅛ teaspoon of turmeric powder 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro 1-2 shiitake mushrooms, sliced ½ carrot, peeled and sliced Sesame oil to taste Fish sauce to taste 3-4 drops of chili oil

Simmer the ingredients above for 15-20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
