Certain foods can support, or even speed the weight-loss process, by providing antioxidants, fiber, and other needed nutrients.
Here are a few of the benefits of this Low Sodium, High Protein Chicken Detox Soup:
Cabbage – Cabbage is full of insoluble fiber which helps you feel fuller longer. Its diuretic properties help rid your body of excess liquid, carrying toxins out of your body.
