Fall is here, and you know what that means—it’s time to stock up on our Herbal Chicken Soup mix!

If you’ve been in the clinic lately, you’ve probably spotted these packets near the front desk. This isn’t your average soup base. It’s a carefully crafted blend of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs that transforms ordinary chicken soup into something truly nourishing—the kind of meal that warms you from the inside out and gives your body what it needs to stay strong through cold season.

We love this soup for anyone feeling run down, fighting off a bug, or simply wanting to give their immune system a little extra support. We often recommend it for pre or post surgery, post-partum, and for anyone who is feeling depleted. It’s comfort food that actually does something.

So what’s actually in there?
Each packet contains a blend of herbs chosen for their ability to strengthen and nourish the body according to Chinese medicine wisdom. Here’s what you’re getting:
