Recipe: Ginger Turmeric Chicken Wellness Soup

By: Taylor Sison

Soup is often thought of as a remedy for treating common colds, the flu, and various other illnesses because soup is made with nutritious ingredients that include vegetables, herbs, bone broth or stock, and protein.    

iTi Tropicals’ Innovation Team has created a Ginger Turmeric Chicken Wellness Soup that utilizes the following functional ingredients: 

  • Coconut water  
  • Coconut water contains five essential electrolytes including calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorous, all of which aid in hydration.  The addition of coconut water to the broth will boost the electrolyte content to help support hydration. 
  • Chicken bone broth  
  • Chicken bone broth is made from simmering chicken bones in water with onions, carrots, celery and herbs.  This process extracts the collagen, vitamins, and minerals from the bones for a flavorful and nutrient dense broth. 
  • Fresh ginger root and turmeric  
  • Ginger root and turmeric are often used as an herbal treatment for illnesses due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.   
  • A variety of vegetables including kale, sweet potatoes, onions, and celery  
  • Each vegetable has a unique vitamin and mineral composition.  Together, the vegetables provide a variety of different vitamins and minerals for overall wellness.
