Easy, Healthy Soup Recipe For Gut Health

| | | | | | | |

FINALLY. Thank you for your patience! Here is my go-to “Soup For Gut Health” recipe. This is a soup that I make almost every single week and contains key nutrients and ingredients that support my gut health! ⁠

Why does gut health matter? Your microbiome, the population of microbes (bacteria) that live in your gut, plays a key role in your immune health, digestive health, mood, energy levels and skin health. Did you know that eighty-percent of your immune health resides in your gut? Did you also know that the gut is often referred to as “the second brain” because of how closely gut health and cognitive health are related? Eating a diet that supports gut health is crucial for overall health!⁠

This recipe is also easy to adapt and adjust to be paleo or 100% plant-based – so feel feel to change up the ingredients so it works for your health needs & dietary preferences!
