Soup provides a great way to ensure you’re eating maximum nutrition

Soup in the summer?! I know, soup in the summer might not seem appropriate, but I promise it is. Soup provides a great way to ensure you’re eating maximum nutrition without having to eat whole vegetables and salads.

The whole goal of detoxing is to remove the body of toxins, which leads to weight loss as a side effect. When it comes to a detox, it’s all about getting maximum nutrition in small portions, every two to three hours throughout the day. This is important because the number of calories are used for energy, and the nutrients are used for repair.

Vegetables have a wide variety of vitamins and minerals present as well as other healthy components, such as antioxidants. It is recommended by the FDA to eat four to five servings a day, but if you were to cook these many vegetables each day it would be difficult to eat anything else. To ensure maximum nutrition, you must think outside the box in terms of preparation. A great way to do this is to eat soups instead of eating whole vegetables and salads.

Clean your cellular level

Toxic waste carries excess fluid and a congested lymphatic system or fatty tissues. Detoxing means helping your body cleanse at the cellular level. Cells make up our tissues, tissues make up our organs, and organs make up our bodies, so a healthy cellular level makes a healthier body with less fat and toxicity.

Fat burning soups to detox

Quality soup is easy to for your body to digest. Your body stops thinking that it needs to hold onto every ounce of fat you consume, because it is well nourished. It no longer believes that you’re in danger of starving and it begins to utilize the nutrients that you consume instead of saving them up and creating fat. Fat burning soups have spices and herbs such as rosemary, sage, thyme, tarragon, oregano, cayenne pepper, ginger, turmeric, stevia, and cinnamon. These all help to burn fat and increase immune function.

Why Grandma fed us soup when we were sick!

Most of us remember when our Grandmothers or mothers fed us soup when we got sick. Soup gives us a feeling of comfort and we crave it because it is easy to digest, warm, filling, and easy to get energy from. My grandmother would pull her herbs straight from her garden. When cooking soup, remember that you are focusing on nutrition that will help you lose weight. You will need to remove white flours, white rice, milks, creams, meats, tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplants, white potatoes, paprika, butters and salts from these recipes. You can add flavor by using natural herbs, like “no salt” vegetable seasoning, rather than those other ingredients, which are more likely to contain toxins, night shade foods, and chemicals. If you need more flavor, try adding parsley, onion, garlic, or cilantro to your soup.
