    How To Make This Recipe: Step-by-Step Instructions

    In this step-by-step section, I'm going to show you how easy it is to make this simple one-pot detox soup recipe.

    Step 1: Prep the Veggies

    Firstly, cut your veggies in bite-size pieces, or in sizes that you prefer.

    When making a cleansing or detox soup, it's best to use fresh, organic veggies and filtered/purified water, if possible.

    Step 2: Combine The Ingredients

    Secondly, add the prepped veggies and all remaining ingredients to a large pot.

    Step 3: Stir The Ingredients

    Thirdly, stir all the ingredients together until they are evenly distributed and covered in the broth/water.

    Step 4: Simmer Until Cooked

    Fourthly, simmer the soup uncovered until all the veggies are soft.

    As the veggies are cooking, check the soup a couple of times and add a little extra water or veggie broth if needed.

    If you do, you may need to adjust the seasonings to compensate for the extra liquid.

    Taste and adjust the seasonings to your preference.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is This Detox Soup Healthy?

    In my opinion, yes!

    It's made with fresh, real food ingredients like beets, broccoli, carrots, onions, and garlic, all of which are good for you - and your liver!

    Homemade soup is always going to be healthier than a store-bought soup especially when you can control the quality of ingredients.

    For example, buying organic veggies and even the water you use.

    Let's compare the ingredients to a popular store-bought canned vegetable soup:

    • S.A.D. (Standard American Diet) Campbell's "Healthy Requests" Vegetable Soup Ingredients: Beef Stock, Carrots, Potatoes, Tomato Puree (Water, Tomato Paste), Enriched Pasta (Wheat Flour, Egg Whites, Niacin, Ferrous Sulfate, Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Folic Acid), Green Beans, Corn, Peas, Celery, Potato Starch, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Contains 2% or Less of: Tomato Paste, Salt, Potassium Chloride, Vegetable Oil, Dehydrated Onions, Flavoring, Spice, Caramel Color, Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate, Yeast Extract, Paprika Extract for Color, Celery Extract, Lactic Acid, Onion Extract. 

    As you can see, store-bought soups contain preservatives, MSG, flavorings, caramel color, and even high fructose corn syrup.

    What Is The "Dr. Group Liver Cleanse Soup"?

    This extremely healthy and nourishing plant-based soup recipe is from Dr. Group at Global Healing Center. 

    I wanted to share it because I just completed Dr. Group's Liver Cleanse Program last week.

    In fact, this is the fourth Global Healing Center Liver Cleanse I've done over the past several years, and have always enjoyed the detox soup at the end of the cleanse.

    Although the original recipe is perfect as is, I made a few minor changes to it by adding extra amounts of some of the veggies.

    This liver detox soup recipe is made with ingredients and herbs that are naturally high in sulfur and glutathione.

    Both of which help cleanse the liver of harmful chemicals and pesticides.

    Do I Have To Follow The Liver Cleanse Program For The Soup To Be Beneficial?

    No, you do not have to do the full "liver cleanse" program to make this recipe!

    While I believe that periodic liver cleanses with Dr. Group's protocol are beneficial to keeping the liver healthy, you do not have to follow the liver cleanse program to enjoy this detox soup.

    Because it is made with real food ingredients that specifically target liver health, it's an excellent soup to make as a nourishing meal anytime for overall liver support.

    Karielyn's Expert Tips + Ingredient Substitutions

    Here are some of my expert tips to make this recipe perfectly.

    The best tip I can give you is to make sure you are using the purest ingredients to make this recipe.

    Since this is a cleansing/detox soup, you wouldn't want to add any additional toxin burden to your body.

    For example, pesticides from non-organic produce or tap water.

    • Vegetables + Herbs - Try to buy organic, if possible to avoid pesticides.
    • Water - The best water to use is filtered/purified water. For instance, I use a Berkey water filtration system for all my cooking and water needs.

    Vegetables. Feel free to cut the veggies into whatever sizes or shapes you prefer, but the smaller the better because they will cook quicker.

    Vegetable Broth + Water. As the soup simmers, additional vegetable broth or water may need to be added.

    • Check it every 20 minutes or so and add extra if needed.
    • After that, taste the soup and add adjust the amount of seasonings if you prefer.

    In addition, make sure your veggie broth doesn't contain citric acid.

    Lemon. I use freshly squeezed lemon juice since it's not pasteurized. However, store-bought organic lemon juice can be substituted.

    Himalayan Pink Salt. This is my salt of preference, but it can always be substituted with sea salt.

    Recipe Notes

    Recipe Source: Dr. Group's Liver Cleanse Soup
    Because this is a "liver cleanse" soup designed by Dr. Group to help detox your liver, you want to make sure you use pure water and organic ingredients so as to not introduce new toxins into your body.
    • Veggies: Try to buy organic ingredients to make this soup, if possible.
    • Water: Use clean, filtered/purified water and not tap water. I use a Berkey water filter system for all my cooking.
    Veggie Prep: Feel free to cut the veggies into whatever sizes you like, but I dice the beets and onions, slice the carrots thin, and cut the broccoli into small bite-size pieces.
    Veggie Broth: You may find that the water + veggie broth level decreases as the soup are simmering. If so, just add additional veggie broth and adjust the seasonings if needed. In addition, make sure your veggie broth doesn't contain citric acid.
    Lemon: It's best to use freshly squeezed organic lemon juice since it will contain the most nutrients, but you can use store-bought organic lemon juice.
    Garlic: Again, it's best to use freshly crushed garlic instead of jarred garlic which contains preservatives.
    Bay Leaves: Discard the bay leaves when the soup is ready and before serving.
    Himalayan Pink Salt: This is the salt of my preference, but you can always substitute it with sea salt.
    Serving Size: This recipe will make approximately (4) cups of soup. Nutritional information is calculated for (1) cup which is (1) serving.

      This is a potent soup, but good.

      I confused on the serving size and nutrition info. Just doesn’t match other website nutrition counter. And why doesn’t anyone tell you what the serving size is, what is 1 serving, Is it 1 cup or 6 cups?

        Hi there Sincee! Thank you for your feedback! I updated the recipe to show it will make approximately (4) cups of soup. Nutritional information is calculated for (1) cup which is (1) serving.

        The nutritional information may be off slightly because the size of some of the ingredients used will vary. For example, beets, carrots, and onion. Some may be small, medium, or large in size and would slightly affect the nutritional content.

        A more precise way to calculate the nutritional information would be to buy your veggies, dice/cut them up, measure them in a measuring cup, and then input the measured amount into a nutrition counter.

        Thanks for your questions and I hope this helps! I appreciate you trying out the recipe and letting me know you liked it 🙂

      Excellent soup I love it. I have also made as a less course soup by cutting veg smaller & adding more liquid. I had to take on caring duties of my Mum since losing my Dad & it is a marvellous way to keep her healthy & eating plenty of veg otherwise her food options are not as healthy as they should be.

        Hi there Zoe! I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe! I love the way you adjusted it to your liking by cutting the veggies smaller and adding extra liquid. It's such a versatile recipe because you can add more or less of one of the veggies in the recipe, increase or decrease the liquids, and add more or less of the seasonings.

        You are so sweet to be taking care of your Mother when she needs it the most - sending a big hug your way!

        Thank you for trying out the recipe and for taking the time to let me know how much you liked it...I sincerely appreciate it 🙂
