Soup is the perfect way to give your digestive system some rest, boost your nutrients and support detoxification. Kale in particular is packed with vibrant green chlorophyll which is amazing to help pull toxins from the body as it moves through the gut. You’re receiving the whole food, plus nourishing fats which encourage your body to burn energy efficiently and stabilise blood sugar. Fats also help your body absorb all the amazing phyto nutrients found in plant foods so are a key to healthy detox.
