Although chicken soup made from a whole chicken can take some time to cook, the end result is a richly flavored, nutrient-dense broth full of high-quality protein and vegetables. Fresh ginger and fresh turmeric flavor the broth and add powerful anti-inflammatory phytonutrients. Red potatoes and carrots provide an abundance of antioxidants. Onions, garlic, and leeks provide a rich source of thiols, which support detox pathways in the body and reduce oxidative stress. Chicken soup is medicine!
