Episode 6: Western Medicine Ignored This SUPERFOOD for 100 Years. (here's why)
Show Notes
Episode DescriptionBone broth has been a staple in traditional diets for centuries, valued for its rich concentration of collagen, gelatin, amino acids, and minerals that nourish us from the inside out.
As we've learned more about the gut's role in overall health, bone broth has regained attention for its ability to support digestion, healthy inflammatory responses, and connective tissues.
In this episode of The Jordan Rubin Show, Jordan sits down with naturopathic physician, New York Times bestselling author, and bone broth pioneer Dr. Kellyann Petrucci to discuss her remarkable journey from years of debilitating endometriosis to finding healing through nutrition.
Together, they explore why gut health is foundational to overall wellness, the science behind bone broth and collagen, and the role of other strategies such as intermittent fasting to help reduce inflammation and support our natural healing processes.
Watch through to the end for the complete Bone Broth Support Protocol, including Dr. Kellyann's three-day bone broth cleanse, a simple homemade bone broth recipe, tips for choosing a high-quality broth, and additional nutrition and lifestyle strategies discussed in this episode.

Bone Broth Support Protocol
(4-5 Minute Read)Inflammation is at the root of many of today's most common health concerns, from digestive issues and joint discomfort to fatigue, skin problems, and accelerated aging.
While no single food can put an end to inflammation or solve every health problem, traditional foods like bone broth have stood the test of time because they provide concentrated nutrients that support our natural repair processes.
Confidence doesn't always arrive with a bold entrance. Sometimes, it builds quietly, step by step, as we show up for ourselves day after day. It grows when we choose to try, even when we're unsure of the outcome. Every time you take action despite self-doubt, you reinforce the belief that you're capable.
The key to making things happen isn't waiting for the perfect moment; it's starting with what you have, where you are. Big goals can feel overwhelming when viewed all at once, but momentum builds through small, consistent action.
You don't need to be fearless to reach your goals, you just need to be willing. Willing to try, willing to learn, and willing to believe that you're capable of more than you know.
