Bieler Broth
Maverick physician Henry Bieler recommended this broth for energy and for overall health. He felt that this combination of veggies was ideal for restoring acid-alkaline and sodium-potassium balance to organs and glands, especially the sodium loving adrenal glands. Bieler broth is highly recommended for those under stress or suffering from stress-related conditions, such as back pain and ligament problems.

Makes 2 quarts

  • 4 medium squash (zucchini, yellow or summer) washed, ends removed and sliced
  • 1 pound string beans, ends removed
  • 2 celery sticks, chopped (optional)
  • 2 bunches parsley, stems removed (optional)
  • fresh herbs such as thyme or tarragon, tied together with a string (optional) 1 quart filtered water
  • whey (optional)
  1. Place water, veggies and optional herbs in a pot.
  2. Bring to boil, skim, lower heat and simmer, covered, for about 1/2 hour.
  3. Remove herbs.
  4. Vegetables may be eaten whole with cooking water, or blended into a thick soup with a handheld blender.
  5. 1 Tbsn whey maybe be added to each cup of soup.

​Potassium Broth

This is a wonderful pick-me-up, drunk warm like tea: a great rejuvenator for those who have been sick or are recovering from childbirth.

Makes 2 quarts

  • 4 potatoes, organic, well scrubbed and peeled 3 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 4 celery sticks, chopped
  • 1 bunch parsley
  • 4 quarts filtered water whey (see recipe)
  1. Place potato peelings, carrots and celery in a pot with water.
  2. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer covered, for about 1/2 hour.
  3. Add parsley and simmer 5 minutes more.
  4. Allow to cool and strain into 2 quart glass container.
  5. Store in fridge and reheat small portions as needed. 
  6. Add 1 Tbsn of whey (optional) to each cup of warm broth- this will greatly facilitate the absorption of potassium and other minerals.
