Soup is a great way to get children to eat vegetables, and not just children either! Available in many forms and great any time of year, soup is full of goodness.

Particularly popular in winter to warm you up from the cold chill outside, soup is back on the menu today. A great source of hydration and heat, this dish has been passed down through the generations as a great way to treat yourself while still providing a nutritious meal. Delicious and healthy? Yes please!
We all know that we should eat five fruit and vegetables a day, though heaven knows it’s not easy. Here’s the solution then: a delicious vegetable soup. It provides the nutritional balance your body needs, rich in the minerals, fibre, vitamins, and phytonutrients of all the vegetables in contains.
Soup is also great for staying in shape. The SU.VI.MAX study (SUpplémentation en VItamines et Minéraux Anti-oXydants) demonstrated that people who regularly eat soup have a lower body mass index (BMI). By providing both a nutritionally-balanced and yet filling meal, soup helps you keep off the pounds while not feeling like a strict diet.
