Lasagna Soup – Nourishing, Flavorful & Full of Balance

Lasagna is a favorite dish for many – but for me personally, it’s never been high on my list.This lasagna soup, however, is a completely different story. It’s definitely one of my all-time favorites!

Why? Because it combines the best of both worlds: warming, nutrient-dense, and yet light. A soup with substance is simply more fun – you can enjoy something hearty and comforting that still feels fresh and varied. Every spoonful tastes a little different – sometimes mild, sometimes spicy, sometimes creamy – and it’s packed with hidden power.

This soup is especially soothing during the follicular phase, the days after menstruation when your body gathers new energy and slowly shifts into rebuilding mode.

Carrots – Renewal & Gentle Hormone Balance

Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which your body converts into vitamin A. This vitamin supports the regeneration of mucous membranes, including those of the uterus, helping to rebuild the endometrium after menstruation. At the same time, carrots provide powerful antioxidants that aid liver function and help eliminate excess hormones.In this way, they support a balanced hormonal system – bringing vitality and radiance to your skin and body from within.

Garlic – Cleansing & Inner Protection

Garlic contains potent sulfur compounds such as allicin, known for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. These support the liver’s detoxification processes and promote a healthy metabolism – essential for hormonal balance. Garlic also strengthens the immune system, improves circulation, and provides a noticeable boost of energy. It’s a true food for clarity, purification, and inner vitality during this rebuilding phase.

Spinach – Vitality & Cellular Energy

Spinach provides an abundance of folate, iron, magnesium, and antioxidants – nutrients especially valuable during the follicular phase. Folate and iron support blood formation and the development of new cells, while magnesium calms the muscles and nervous system. With every serving of spinach, you nourish both body and mind from the inside out, creating the best foundation for energy, fertility, and wellbeing in the new cycle.
