GAPS Stage 1
Using The Meat After Making Chicken Stock

Chicken Stock. A crucial food for building back a healthy, strong body and a mainstay of GAPS.  After making Chicken Stock, the meat has a plethora of uses. Still rich in goodness and value.

The meat from Chicken Stock is still a nutritional power-house !

  1. Protein Content - The meat retains most of its high-quality protein, which is essential for muscle repair, immune function, and overall body maintenance.

  2. Mineral Preservation - Minerals like zinc, selenium, and phosphorus remain largely intact, supporting bone health, immune system, and metabolic processes.

  3. Reduced Fat - Boiling for stock has extracted most of the fat, making the remaining meat a leaner protein source.

  4. Collagen Extraction - While much of the collagen has been drawn into the stock, some beneficial proteins remain in the meat that support joint and skin health.

  5. Nutrient Density - Despite stock-making, the chicken meat still provides valuable B vitamins, particularly B6 and niacin, which are crucial for energy metabolism and neurological functions.
