Chicken Feet

Our packages of chicken feet include 1.5lbs per pakage (roughly 12-15 feet).  Of all the bones, chicken feet happen to be particularly nutritious (and cheap). When you render chicken feet you extract an abundance of nutrients. Chicken feet contain calcium, magnesium, sulfur, sodium, potassium, glucosamine, keratin and other minerals. It’s believed that drinking chicken feet broth can improve your immune system, boost metabolism, detox your liver, help with digestion and reduce inflammation. But of all the nutrients in chicken feet, the magic is in its collagen content. The protein in chicken feet is roughly 70 percent collagen—a structural protein in our bodies that is responsible for the health of our skin, tendons, muscles, bones and ligaments. Studies conducted with collagen show all kinds of extraordinary health benefits. Introducing collagen into your body can reduce wrinkles, remove cellulite, increase the elasticity of your skin, stimulate tissue regeneration to reduce symptoms of arthritis, improve knee pain, and increase bone formation and density in post-menopausal women. Little side note: when collagen is cooked long enough at the right temperature, it breaks down into gelatin. That's why bone broth/stock made with chicken feet is so rich in gelatin! So. Much. Goodness. happens when you add chicken feet to your stock.  Pickup Locations:  Sweet Magnolia Farms in Summerdale Coastal Alabama Farmers and Fisherman's Market in Foley *Available most Saturdays* - We will contact you to confirm a pickup date.
