Mucosa Membrane Mending Brew

This soothing brew is designed to help mend and protect the delicate mucosal membranes that line your digestive tract. It's made with a bone broth base, which is rich in collagen, a protein that is essential for maintaining the integrity of these membranes. The gelatin, ginger, and turmeric also have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce irritation and pain. The cinnamon and sea salt add a bit of flavor and warmth.

I first came across this recipe in a cookbook from the 1920s. It was touted as a miracle cure for all sorts of digestive ailments, from indigestion to ulcers. I was skeptical at first, but I decided to give it a try. I was surprised to find that it actually worked! I've been using it ever since to help me maintain a healthy digestive system.
