Learn to Love: Miso
Starting off a sushi dinner with a steamy bowl of miso soup is a ritual I can't seem to break.

Make Way for Miso!
Turns out that a bowl of delicious miso soup may burn belly fat. Since this is great news and since it's still National Soup Month, I thought I'd pass on this great little recipe. You could always make miso soup with an instant packet (just add water), but a homemade version is going to be a little heartier and taste a lot better.

Miso May Burn Belly Fat
It is National Soup Month, so says my friend YumSugar. So I thought I would tell you about a little research done on miso soup recently.

Many Probiotics Short on Bacteria
With claims that they improve digestion, bolster immunity, and fight acne, it's no wonder that probiotic supplements are big business.
