Wolfberry Leaf, Goji & Egg White Soup

Why people make this soup

As we age, metabolism slows and the liver tends to hold on to more, so Nourilo likes to work liver-supporting foods into everyday meals. Long-simmered herbal soups aren’t for everyone — not everyone has the time or takes to the taste — so a quick vegetable soup that still supports the liver is ideal. Wolfberry leaf (the leaf of the goji plant) is traditionally valued for the liver and eyes, and is associated with supporting the small blood vessels of the liver; the leaf is said to carry even more of these benefits than the berry. This light soup is traditionally taken to support the eyes and the liver, with a nod toward the “three highs” too.
