PRAISE FOR SOUPELINA
Soupelina has healing power! I was feeling under the weather with a terrible sinus headache and tried several other natural methods to relieve it but was still in pain and nauseous. One full day of the Veggie Healing Broth brought me back to life. The combination of cayenne pepper, ginger, and Asian veggies among the freshest ingredients make for an amazing broth that soothes the tummy, opens up the breathing passages, loosens phlegm, and eases the headache.

Soupelinas 3-day cleanse was just what I needed to lose a couple pounds while not sacrificing my life for delicious food. I have tried juice cleanses on several occasions and always found that I would be so hungry that I spent all three days obsessing about not being able to eat. The soup cleanse was so much more filling. I had more energy and a clearer head than when I juiced. The soups were so flavorful and downright fantastic.

I incorporate Soupelina into my daily dietary regimen. I live a very busy lifestyle and Soupelina is a quick, convenient supplemental resource I use to get in the nutrients needed to keep me energized and nourished all day long. I take my soups with me everywhere I go.

For someone who has to do gluten-free, it can be a real challenge finding great, healthy soups that dont come from a can or a box. I tried Elinas soups and I was hooked. Elina cares about her clients and their overall health. She is making people healthier one soup at a time.
Cathy, pet nutrition consultant, Studio City
I started eating Soupelina over a year ago to help boost my energy levels and add extra nutrition to my diet. Not only are the soups delicious (Kale-ifornia Dreamin is my favorite), but they are packed with so many vitamins and healing nutrients that I feel energized and most importantly, nourished, after eating a bowl. Incorporating these soups into my routine has made me feel better than ever before.
Terena, writer, Los Angeles
Ive been vegan for a while and it isnt easy to find delicious soups, especially with clean ingredients. I wasnt feeling well, so I decided to do a weeklong cleanse and I loved every soup I had. I never felt deprived or hungry; it was great to know I was eating something truly healthy. Within just a few days I started feeling much better from all of the healing soups. I never ended up getting sick and I felt even better after the cleanse than I had before.

I just completed my 5-day Soupelina cleanse and I feel amazing! I didnt know that losing 7 pounds in just 5 days would be that easy! Im going to keep this up because Ive never felt better. Not only was I able to finally fit into my skinny jeans, Im better balanced, can finally concentrate on my work and kids, my skin is glowing and I feel so empowered! Thank you, Soupelina, for giving me my old energy and body back. Good-bye, fatigue! Hello, a better me!

Ive been struggling with high cholesterol for years and tried many medications. Nothing worked until I tried Elinas healing soup cleanse. I have to admit, I was skeptical but wanted to try anyway because I enjoy soups. When my doctor told me that my levels were good for the first time in years just after one week of souping, I couldnt believe it. Eating healthy does work and it does change your life.
Stacy, retired, Los Angeles
I dont know how Elina makes her soups so flavorful without what I was use to, tons of animal fat. Her soups are filling, delicious; the perfect comfort food. I have incorporated her knowledge of healthy eating into my diet and I am seeing results. Thank you!

Soupelinas soups are of the highest quality ingredients available. They taste great, make you feel great and dont even resemble soups you get elsewhere. Ever feel like your head is going to explode from the salt in other soups? Not here! The nutritional value is through the roof! Despite the fact that Soupelina soups are 100% vegan and organic and that I am a sworn meat eater and a body builder, I still love them!

For my darling daughters, Madeline and Isabelle, the loves of my life. You are my stars, my muses, my inspiration. Without your love and nudging, Soupelina and this book would still be in my dreams. Thank you for your confidence in me and for helping me become the person that I am today.
I love you to the moon and back.
