Asian Vegetable Immune Booster Soup
There are plenty of "grandma" soups that are excellent for all winter ailments. This time, I chose to create and share an Asian, vegetarian soup (but you can also replace the tofu with chicken, meat, fish) that contains vegetables with immune-boosting activity such as Daikon and Ginger, as well as many other healthy and mineral-rich vegetables.

Millet, the wonder grain, in amazing vegan baked patties that kids will love too
And so again, I return to millet, my favorite grain and hopefully for my patients as well. Why? According to Chinese medicine it is a both cooling and drying, and in the 21st century diet, this can only be healthy (to most patients).
