HEALTH BENEFITS AND FUN FACTS
Potatoes are a great source of vitamin b6, potassium, and even copper!
As simple as they seem, potatoes actually boast having 60 different kinds of phytochemicals and vitamins in them.
The vitamin b6 content may help to build cells and has been shown to be a protective vitamin against cardiovascular disease.
Provided that it’s coming from a grass fed cow, milk is high in vitamin b-12, omega 3 fatty acids, lignans and antioxidants, with anti-inflammatory support.
I have an older VitaMix that doesnโt have a variable speed, only adjustable times. What would be the best way to make this soup?
Thank you in advance.
You would want to blend it for at least 5-6 minutes on high.
