Prepared To Fight Our immune systems are amazing! We fight off sickness every day and we often don't even know it. Bacteria, germs, and viruses are everywhere this time of year. When our immune system is healthy it's extremely effective at keeping us from coming down with cold & flu, or other more serious sickness. Even when we're battle ready, we can still succumb to the flu, but our body can respond much more effectively if it's prepared. The CDC estimated that almost 43 million people got the flu during the 2018-2019 season. Take a few common sense precautions now before someone in your house has it. 1. Make a big batch of bone broth Drink some every day to improve your gut. We've got some great resources available in our Discover Blog. 2. Drink lots of water and tea Fluids (the healthy kind) help remove yuck from your body giving you a fighting chance. 3. Wash your hands frequently This can prevent a whole host of nasties from coming home with you. If you've ever watched where your 4 year old has their hands in a public place, you know how important this can be.

Shout Out | Rocky Mountain Delicacy We love that more and more people are dedicating themselves to sustainable practices. A trend we fully support is eating nose to tail. Regular readers of this newsletter will know that we offer nearly every part of the animal. Why? Because every part of the animal has nutritional value. Our ancestors knew this. Unfortunately, the items most frequently discarded by modern food companies are the parts of the animal that are most nutritious. This week's shout out goes to @dos.americanos on Instagram for these Rocky Mountain delicacies. Kudos and thanks for sharing!
