Strong Bones need 20 vitamins and minerals in addition to calcium.

Here's a Strong Bone recipe that will feed and warm the marrow of your bones.

Ingredients:

Strong Bone Oatmeal

 

*1/2 cup Organic steel cut oats + 1/2 cup Whole Oat Groats  (soaked overnight to remove phytic acid which blocks mineral absorption)

TIP: Cook 2 cups once and eat during the week

* 1/8-¼-t cinnamon (or a cinnamon stick)

* 1/8-¼ t cardamon

*1/8- ¼ t nutmeg

* dash of mineral-rich sea salt

* handful of raisins

* handful of goji berries (bone bonus)

Bring ingredients to a boil

~ Reduce the flame to low and cover.

~ Cook for about 20-30 minutes

Top with raspberries, blueberries, chopped apples

And your freshly made almond milk! See video below.

Top with Seed Combo:

Place 2 Tablespoons of: organic black sesame seeds, organic hemp seeds, organic flax seeds (grind the flax seeds) in a jar and mix.  Sprinkle 1 Tablespoon of seed combo over oatmeal.
