This recipe was an earlier THM favorite but now we’ve given it extra methylation power with added spinach (another star folate donor) and have completed the protein profile to make it more beneficial to your CLBM. Lentils are already high in protein, but that protein is not as bioavailable as animal protein, and it is low in leucine… your chief muscle-triggering amino acid. e small amount of added chicken breast in this recipe gives you more bioavailable protein and amps up leucine to ensure your lean body mass does not break down. Note – Family members love this soup! If you want them to enjoy it… top their bowls with grated cheese and perhaps a dollop of sour cream for a hearty Crossover. You’ll want to stick to E if you’re on your wisdom journey or create an XO by adding burnable diced avocado. My children grew up on the basic lentil version of this soup, and they still consider it comfort food to this day.

Extra Methylating Soup
Description
Lentils are budget-friendly, tasty, slimming, and easy to make. They’re also “Super Star” folate donors, providing more than a day’s worth of folate in just one cup. Folate is essential for proper methylation, which supports detoxification and reduces the risk of inflammatory diseases. This is especially important for those with the MTHFR mutation or in perimenopause, when methylation tends to slow down. This recipe is part of the Wisdom Recipe Collection.
