Make Your Own: Immune Boosting Thai Coconut Soup

Amanda Furbee
Our Immune Boosting Soup Blend is perfect for the cold season, and anytime to help ward off infections and viruses! Dropped into a pot of soup for a powerful immune boosting kick, our blend is another way to build up the immune system this season. Our Immune Boosting Soup Blend is packed with antimicrobial herbs like Sage and Thyme, antivirals like Reishi Mushroom, and anti-inflammatory plants like Turmeric and Cayenne. Astragalus Root is added as a defense against unwanted infection and illness. Grab a small muslin bag and drop it into your soup for a powerful immunity boost to your next meal! Have you ever had the delicious and well-known Thai soup, Tom Kha? This recipe was inspired by the tangy and savory flavors of that traditional dish. This Immune Boosting Thai Coconut soup is one of my favorite soups to make all year round, but especially during cold and flu season. Just a simple reminder that food is medicine. What we put into our bodies is what we get out of them. Watch me live on KGW8 in January to learn how to make this soup! Here’s what you will need:
