So what happened?

I was feeling a bit under the weather, in the way that I noticed I might be getting sick & this does not happen too often, as I regularly am catching it early enough to eradicate it.

My strategy was to make a chicken soup, like I remember from being younger, today also knowing about its nutritional benefits for the body.

Important to know is that I am/was mainly vegetarian, or let’s say pescatarian & once in a while I also eat some moose meat that has locally been hunted here where I live.

Overall ca 10 years now I rarely eat meat, with a phase of being vegan, then vegetarian & then slowly eating like I just described above. Since a while already I have been observing the science, the health industry (NOT mainstream media) and have realized the benefits of eggs, butter, cream and animal fats. Therefore, I have been including those in my diet since a while.

I have also noticed minor health related issues, skin rashes, weight fluctuations, cravings, dry skin etc. Nothing major, but still irritating & I have tried many different approaches to “fix those”. Only partial successes.

This has lead me to slowly wondering and questioning a lot… fast forward, my chicken soup situation was one of the very clear wake-up calls I had on that journey.
