By Organic Soup Kitchen
Organic Soup Kitchen announces a highly curated line of recipes aligned with the world’s best diet for healthy aging and longevity. The 24 different specialty SoupMeals are formulated with a foundation of whole, unprocessed vegetables, grains and beneficial oils. This method of healthy eating, known as the Mediterranean Diet, has been scientifically proven by the Mayo Clinic, National Institute of Health and other leading medical professionals, to reduce cardiovascular disease and lower the risk of cancer and other illnesses.
“Our Mediterranean SoupMeals contain powerful healing ingredients, including vegetables, whole grains and healthy oils, to support the health of individuals struggling with cancer, diabetes, heart disease and other chronic conditions.” says Andrea Slaby, Chief Operating Officer at Organic Soup Kitchen. “We are excited to offer our extensive menu of organic, plant rich SoupMeals to anyone interested in delicious food that contributes to healthy aging and longevity.”
According to the Cleveland Clinic, the Mediterranean Diet is more of an eating plan and less of a diet. It is characterized by emphasizing plant based foods and healthy fats including vegetables, fruits, whole grains and healthy fats such as olive oil. Research shows that the Mediterranean Diet can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer and other chronic conditions. It has also been proven to contribute to healthy aging and longevity.
