Garlic has been used for centuries by a multitude of cultures as a superfood. It has a protein in it called lectin which is anti viral. It's unique in that it actually competes with viruses for the same receptors in the gut. This means that the more garlic you eat, the less likely your gut is to receive the virus. The virus has to attach to the receptor but if garlic gets into the receptor first, the virus can’t connect. Seriously amazing.
Adding garlic to your bone broth is one of the simplest and most effective ways to naturally strengthen your immune system during cold and flu season. The warm broth helps extract garlic’s beneficial compounds, allowing your body to absorb its anti-viral and immune-boosting properties more easily. When combined with nutrient-rich vegetables and herbs, garlic bone broth becomes a powerful ally for your overall wellness and immune defense.
Broth Masters Bone Broth is loaded with garlic and other anti-viral, anti- inflammatory herbs and vegetables. We partnered with a food scientist consultant, Dr. Jack Lasso, who taught us how to properly handle these medicinal vegetables, controlling temperature and time to retain the maximum levels of anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties.
Each batch of our bone broth is carefully crafted to preserve the natural goodness of garlic, ensuring that every sip supports gut health, immunity, and inflammation control. By maintaining the ideal cooking temperature, we lock in essential nutrients that nourish your body and promote recovery during seasonal illnesses.
Garlic is also a prebiotic – it feeds the probiotic in your gut. The more food, or prebiotics, that probiotics have to eat, the more efficiently these live bacteria work and the healthier your gut will be.
A healthy gut is vital to a strong immune system, and that’s where garlic shines. Its prebiotic properties help balance your digestive flora, which in turn supports your body’s ability to fight off common colds, flu, and infections. Pairing garlic with collagen-rich bone broth creates a healing combination that nurtures your gut and boosts your overall vitality.
Our broth is so soothing and healing when you're sick but prevention is the best medicine. Get a step ahead this cold and flu season!
