This soup will make you strong and happy all around!
During 8 years, I`ve served this soup in different variations
to my colleagues at an advertising agency, also as a birth soup to my friend
Eva, who got it for refreshment right at the hospital, after her sons birth.
The soup is also good for health, while having an influenza infect or on
stressful times. Again and again, I was told, about the tonically effects
of the soup and that it causes a certain feeling of happiness.
The real cause could be the zinc, contained in chicken meat, which forces
endorphin production.
ENJOY YOUR MEAL!
