Potassium Broth

[Invincible]

Hi Shelley

I have a pot simmering on the stove. I included a few cabbage leaves and some slices of fresh ginger, parsley, celery, a carrot and onion with all the potato skins.

So, I simmer for 45 minutes, then discard the veges (not worth eating any of them? ... or are they 'dead' now) ... and can I heat up the broth several times?

Also, how long will this broth keep so the potassium is still active?

Thanks!

It will keep refrigerated for a couple days, but for best therapeutic benefits drink all you want on the day you make it and then freeze the leftovers for next time. The potassium lasts a long long time, it doesn't break down like enzymes do.

That's great, thanks Shelley.

Doesn't taste bad at all .. although it does look a little odd.

Shelley, is Potassium broth very alkalising? I really need to do a lot of alkalising and anti-inflamatorry work on my body right now. Loads of aches and pains plus acne on cheeks.

I'm prepared to make this every day if it helps me!

[shelley]

yes, very much so!

Adding parsley helps a lot too, or cilantro, because of their high calcium content. Then when you want something a little more solid that you can chew, make broccoli soup. All very alkaline.

Right then, more shopping needed.

I'll make this every day. I did add a bunch of parsley.

Thanks A LOT Shelley

Adding my brewer's yeast to the potassium broth makes a lovely warming drink
