Recipe: Potassium Balance Broth

Beiler’s broth, a vegetable broth developed by Dr. Henry Beiler, is known for its potential health benefits. Here are some of the key benefits:

1. Detoxification: Beiler’s broth is often used as part of detox diets because it contains a variety of vegetables that help the liver and kidneys remove toxins from the body.
2. Nutrient-Dense: The broth is made from nutrient-dense vegetables like zucchini, celery, green beans, and parsley, providing a rich source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
3. Digestive Health: The broth is easy to digest, making it suitable for individuals with difficult digestion. It can help soothe the digestive tract and improve overall gut function.
4. Immune Support: The vegetables used in Beiler’s broth, particularly parsley, are known for their immune-boosting properties. This can help support the body’s natural defense mechanisms.
5. Hydration: Being a liquid, Beiler’s broth helps keep the body hydrated while also providing essential electrolytes that support proper fluid balance.
6. Alkalizing Effect: Mineral-rich broth can help balance the body’s pH levels, promoting an environment which is believed to support overall health and reduce inflammation.
