Mrs B - two things that are great when you are recovering and have poor appetite 1. Slippery elm ( can get it in holland and barratt) make it with warm milk like Horlicks 2. Homemade bone broth x may help her recover the appetite bit quicker but will also help with vital nutrients and vitamins otherwise lost.

AAAHHHH Chicken soup!  We need some Jewish recipes on here.  Apparently it's a staple?

[DaisyB]

You've put me in the mood CKLD for chicken soup and it's just the weather for it as well


I do mine with organic whole chicken in slow cooker for the broth..... dash of ACV to bring out the nutrients in the bones    and some good veg celery carrot onion etc 24 hrs and you're done. Best thing for recovering from illness.


Chicken soup recipes welcome

You should put your chicken soup recipe on the Recipe thread DaisyB if you haven't already.

Will do Taz x it's for bone broth though -    not to everyone's liking lol but a great stable for seeing us through the winter months
Bone broth has come back into fashion - but it's not new to those of us who can still remember grannies making it.


My gran made a pot every weekend- the chicken was boiled all day then removed along with any bits that escaped. Then she added leek, carrot, parsnip flat leaf parsley barley and dried peas    nothing like it !!! Sometimes chicken was served with boiled potatoes rolled in butter and salt on the side 😋

My mum used to make broth that way. I've never made it.

I do this too - we call it Chicken Soupy Stew! I didn't realise it had gone out of fashion!

I'm suffering from awful low backache and pain in buttocks and down legs. Keep getting a clammy sweat and have had the runs first thing in the morning for a few days....urine infection do you think? Urine looks a bit cloudy but not burning or frequent. Bit stressed as dog has just had pups and I'm knackered and so could be IBS too.....

 Ha ha Sparkle I know but you know me, prefer to fret about the 'what ifs" and see if anyone on here says "oh yes, I have had that etc" !!!

Thanks Breeze. I will make an app tomorrow. Having my highlights done later and the way my mind works, had to make sure they were done in case I ended up in hospital!
