Lentil Soup with Turmeric

The curcumin in turmeric has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may help promote healthy aging. Lentils are packed with folate, which supports DNA methylation. Sautéing the aromatics in coconut oil helps absorb the fat-soluble turmeric. This soothing, nutritious soup contains compounds that work synergistically to support overall health.
