A simple broth meal

From: Soups and broths from kitchens everywhere

How to do it

Once in a while, make a light meal of vegetable or bone broth with soft vegetables and herbs. This is a light meal, not a fast.

What we know

A comforting tradition across cultures. Not studied as a cleanse.

Be careful if

you need to watch your salt. Don't replace whole days of eating with broth, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or take medication for blood sugar.

What this label means: Traditional use. Used for a long time in one or more cultures. Not well studied yet.

Very heavy bleeding, fainting, sudden or severe pain, or fever? Please don't wait. Contact a doctor or emergency services.

"What worked for me" notes from the community are coming with the app. They'll be shared as personal experiences, never as medical advice.
