Why people make this soup
Small sea fish make a sweet, milky broth that is nutritious and especially friendly for people whose stomachs run a bit weak and whose digestion is slow. If you spend long hours hunched at a desk in front of a screen, tense and under pressure, your digestion often suffers, and a heavy meal sits like a stone. A bowl of this light, savory fish soup is just the thing. Nourilo pan-fries the fish before simmering to draw out a beautifully milky broth, then pairs it with green papaya, carrot, sweet apricot kernels and pork ribs for a soup that nourishes both the stomach and the skin.
What studies say about the key ingredients
Traditional use is not the same as clinical proof. Here is the strongest human research we found for each ingredient, limitations included.
- Ginger
Overall, acute and delayed nausea and vomiting did not differ significantly between ginger and control groups. A subgroup taking 1 g/day or less for over four days had less acute vomiting (OR 0.30).Limitation: Clinical heterogeneity between trials required subgroup analyses, and the authors state that sufficiently large, high-quality RCTs are still needed.PubMed 36501010 · 3 more ginger studies
