Ingredients


    1 whole chicken (free range, pastured, or organic chicken)
    6 celery stalks
    1 tbsp. raw apple cider vinegar
    1 pound green beans
    3-4 quarts filtered water
    1 bunch parsley
    4 medium-sized onions, coarsely chopped
    5 garlic cloves
    8 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
    2-4 tbsp. Celtic Sea Salt
    2-4 zucchinis chopped
    4 inches grated ginger
    4 tbsp. extra-virgin coconut oil
    1/4 - 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
    1/2 cup fresh or frozen peas

Directions

If you are using a whole chicken, remove fat glands and gizzards from the cavity. Place chicken or chicken pieces in a large stainless steel pot with water, vinegar, garlic, ginger, salt, cayenne pepper, extra-virgin coconut oil, and all vegetables except parsley. Let stand for 10 minutes before heating. Bring to a boil, removing the scum that rises to the top. Cover and cook for 8-12 hours. The more you cook the stock, the more cleansing it will be. About 15 minutes before finishing the stock, add parsley. This will impart additional mineral ions to the broth.

Remove from heat and take out the chicken. After it cools, remove chicken meat from the carcass, discarding the bones. Drop the meat back into the soup. You may puree for even easier digestion.
