Fish soup is at the top of my list of comfort foods … not any kind of soup but the one made with my bone broth, which my unique fish soup recipe calls for. Bone Broth is loaded with collagen, minerals and protein. It’s part of my protocol and my recommendation to the women in my free and private online community.
Fish Quality
Not all kinds of fish are created equal. Unfortunately in today’s world, a lot of fish has been raised in “farm” setting which means the fish is not in its natural environment and not fed its natural food.
The best type of fish to aim for is “wild” fish which is much higher in nutrients and less toxic to our body than farm raised. Simply – “wild” fish eat its natural source of food and live in its natural habitat.
Farm raised fish is mostly feed grains or seeds which are unnatural for fish altering its composition thus making it less nutrient dense and in most cases, unhealthy for us to eat. The bottom line is stick with how nature intended people and animals to do… not what modern society has created. If you want to know more about this topic, read this post .
