Are you still drinking juice or fruit water to detox? If you also want to catch up with the new health trend, don’t miss the "Souping" trend that is quietly spreading in Europe and the United States! A bowl of good soup that combines three major nutrients can not only provide energy, increase satiety, help detoxification and weight loss, but also warm the body and mind in winter. How to implement such a “healing” health care method? Follow the nutritionist and learn how to cook nutritious soup.

Staying up late + eating three meals randomly will cause toxins to accumulate in the body and make you sick

Lin Xinhui, a nutritionist from the New Nutrition Food Generation team, said that after food enters the human body and the nutrients are digested, absorbed and utilized, the remaining waste is excreted from the body through sweat glands, urine and feces. However, modern people generally have irregular living habits, monotonous diets, insufficient water intake, etc., and their organs cannot function and rest normally. Toxins are not completely eliminated and accumulate in the body, which can easily cause obesity and disease in the long run.

The ingredients are paired! A bowl of nutritious soup can be served in 10 minutes

The detoxifying and healing soup trend that is popular in the United States is just in line with the lifestyle of modern office workers. After work, they don’t have time to prepare three dishes and a soup, but they are tired of greasy eating out. At this time, just prepare all kinds of ingredients, put them all in the pot and cook, and it can be done in 10 minutes.

Nutritionist Lin Xinhui said that if the nutrients in soup are balanced, it can replace a regular meal. In other words, if the soup can contain the six major types of food, it will be a bowl of nutritious soup, such as a soup made from potatoes (whole grains and root vegetables) + chicken breast/tofu (beans, fish, meat, eggs) + milk powder/milk/cheese (low-fat dairy products) + high-fiber vegetables + nuts (oils and nuts and seeds), and finally adding a fruit, it will be a nutritionally balanced meal.

However, when cooking nutritious soup, you need to be aware that vitamin C and B complex are not resistant to high temperatures and can be easily destroyed by long-term high-temperature stewing. It is recommended to wash the ingredients before cutting them to reduce the loss of nutrients. After the meat slices are boiled or the vegetables are cooked, they should be eaten as soon as possible to absorb more nutrients.

Improve weight loss effect and master the order of drinking soup to lose weight faster

In addition, if you want to enhance the effect of slimming and weight loss, don’t forget to remember the eating order of "soup → vegetables → protein → staple food" . Nutritionist Lin Xinhui further explained that drinking soup first can increase the sense of fullness and avoid eating too much at the main meal, but the calories in clear soup are lower than those in thick soup, so it is recommended to give priority to clear soups.

Next, eat vegetables, which are low in calories and rich in vitamins, phytochemicals, and dietary fiber, which can increase satiety and prolong stomach emptying. For protein, it is recommended to choose low-fat meat (such as chicken breast, skinless chicken legs, seafood) or soy products. Finally, eat staple foods, such as brown rice, noodles or oatmeal.

Since the soup and vegetables already take up most of the space in the stomach, you don't have to worry about eating too much to satisfy your hunger and consuming too much calories when you supplement with protein and staple food.

【Health Tips】:

If you have a bad stomach or are prone to bloating, it is best to take two or three mouthfuls of rice with a mouthful of soup. The soup will enter the stomach first, diluting the gastric juice and causing indigestion, resulting in discomfort such as bloating after a meal. It is recommended to eat soup and rice separately, and liquid and solid foods separately, with a half-hour interval between them.
