Chinese chicken stock was prepared ... Briefly, yellow-feather chicken carcasses with the head, claws, and
internal organs removed were cut evenly in half along the back, rinsed
and drained in cold water, and cooked in a 5.6 L stainless steel
stockpot ... with purified water ... at the meat to water ratio of 1:2 (w/w).
The chicken carcass was placed in the stainless steel pot when the
purified water was at 95–99 °C, and cooking was timed when the broth
temperature again reached 95–99 °C. After 4 h of stewing, the top layer
of fat was removed and the chicken stock was stored at −20 °C for
further analysis. ...
Gout is the second most common metabolic disease affecting human health after diabetes. Gout is closely related to the content of exogenous purines and uric acid consumed in the diet. Chinese chicken broth is a delicious traditional meat soup, rich in protein, fat, minerals, and other nutrients, and is popular among consumers. Chicken broth is often considered a high purine food, posing a health risk to patients with gout and hyperuricemia. This work copes with the optimization of purines and uric acid content simultaneous determination in Chinese chicken stock when hydrolysis and extraction procedures, as well as HPLC, were studied. ... It has been demonstrated that Chinese chicken broth contains a significant amount of purines, with the highest content being hypoxanthine. It is also worth noting that some uric acid is also present in chicken soup, which can directly affect the body’s blood uric acid levels when ingested.
I found these at my local health food store in Michigan, and they are delicious.
From the story here:
... low micromolar (ĀµM) concentrations of sulforaphane (2.4–31 ĀµM) lowered virus replication by 50 percent among six distinct strains of SARS-CoV-2 — including the Delta and Omicron variants. Researchers discovered similar results among cells previously infected with the viruses. In these cases, the protective effects of sulforaphane were apparent even in reference to already established virus infections.
From the story here:
The participants assigned to the cranberry powder group displayed notable improvements in their flow-mediated dilations (FMD). Study authors say FMD signals both heart and blood vessel function improvements.
Scientists consider FMD an important and sensitive biomarker of one’s cardiovascular disease risk, measuring the widening of blood vessels when blood flow increases.
It’s also important to note that the FMD improvements among participants were apparent within just two hours of consuming cranberry powder, with the beneficial effects remaining after one month of daily consumption. This suggests eating cranberries is great for the heart in both the immediate short term and over the long haul.

It really does taste amazing, and it most likely has much more vitamin K2, necessary for bone absorption of calcium, than conventional butter:
The measurements we are talking about when measuring levels of MK4 is
the Ī¼g(microgram). In AnĆŗ Dairy butter there is 54Ī¼g per 100g of
butter; other high quality Irish butters are around half that at 25Ī¼g
but it can go as low as 7Ī¼g or 11Ī¼g for conventional indoor feed cattle.
Kevin explains that in Europe having a claim of “uniquely rich
food”means it needs to be at 30% or above. ...
Butter is a huge industry in Ireland, there are 9 butter plants in Ireland each producing 10,000kg/hr and 140,000 tonnes/year in exports. In terms of scale AnĆŗ Dairy is very small and not really in that space, they are a small artisan producer. ...
There are so many different brands of butter, PrƩsident butter is white, so there is no grass there, but Kerrygold butter is much better. Even Irelands conventional butter is very good quality compared to international butters and the reputation is very strong overseas. Kevin also mentions there are good small farmers in America such as Maple Hill Creamery, for example.
