Many soups contain whole foods that are full of fiber, which helps improve gut motility and regulate bowel health. Soup's warm, liquid consistency also helps stimulate your body's digestive tract, making it an excellent appetizer before eating heartier foods.
You can add a variety of herbs, spices, and seasonings to enhance the flavor, as well as incorporate proteins like tofu, chicken, or shrimp for added nutrition.

Smooth soups made from easy to digest vegetables such as butternut squash or clear, tasty broths are best before bedtime. Avoid soups that have beans, noodles, or lentils, as these foods can take your body too long to digest, and actually hinder your sleep.
Water: In addition to its importance for digestion, research indicates warm water may aid gut bacteria. Herbal and spiced teas: This includes peppermint tea, turmeric tea, ginger tea, and fennel tea. The herbs and spices in the tea can reduce inflammation and relieve symptoms of digestive distress.
It's made by simmering bones, which produces a broth filled with the bones' nutrients, including calcium, magnesium, and collagen — the most abundant protein in your body ( 29 , 30 ). By being rich in collagen, bone broth may improve joint, bone, and skin health ( 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ).
Boiling and cooking vegetables in high temperatures or in water can also decrease their nutrient level. Water soluble vitamins like vitamin C and B vitamins are often lost during these cooking methods. Minerals like potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc may be reduced by up to 60-70%.
Keeps You Satiated: Soup can help to keep you satiated, as it is a liquid-based meal that is typically high in water and fibre content. The water and fiber in soup can help to fill you up, making you feel less hungry. Additionally, soup is often low in calories, which can also help to keep you feeling full.
Split peas also contain insoluble fiber, a type of fiber that increases water absorption, stool bulk and intestinal regulation. All of these factors can make it easier to have bowel movements, according to a 2021 review of studies published in Legume Science.
Most peas contain moderate to high levels of FODMAPs even in low portions, meaning you should avoid most peas. This includes black-eyed peas, chickpeas, split peas, snow peas, and green peas. Swap peas out for low-FODMAP vegetables like bean sprouts, carrots, eggplant, kale, tomato, spinach, or zucchini.
Split peas and other legumes contain resistant starch, which is hard to digest. Bacteria in the colon break down the starch and as a by-product produce butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, that may help prevent colon cancer.
