Cabbage Soup
This is the cabbage soup from the well-known cabbage soup diet. As mentioned many times, I’m not a big fan of diets, including this one, however, this soup has a lot of powerful detox and healing nutrients that I love, so I add the soup to my meal plans.
The diet has been modified and updated so many times, the amounts are not as important as it seems, just getting the cabbage in there is most important as it contains choline to help detox the liver, something we all need in modern times with all the toxins we absorb daily.
