Pumpkin Soup

Ingredients:


· 1kg of butternut pumpkin (skin removed and diced)

·  1 large potato (peeled and diced)

·  1 brown onion (finely diced)

·  1 leek finely sliced (white part only)

·  3 cloves of garlic crushed

·  1 cup of chicken or vegetable stock


Method:


1. Heat a deep pot over a medium-high heat, add ½ tablespoon of rice bran oil (or oil of your choice) with the diced onion and sliced leek.

2. Cook until onion is slightly translucent then stir in garlic and cook for another minute. Add pumpkin, potato and stock and bring to boil.

3. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer with lid on for 20-30 minutes stirring occasionally to ensure the vegetables are evenly cooking.

4. Check that the pumpkin and potato is soft and well-cooked before removing from heat and let stand for 10 minutes to slightly cool.

5. Use a stick blender or jug blender to blend in batches until soup is thick and smooth. Return to pot and heat slowly until ready to serve.

6. Serve with a dash of pouring cream or on its own.

Enjoy!

Patient Education Series - The Gut Connection: Diet, Digestion and Microbiome

In this episode, Sam Cartwright explores the pivotal role of the gut in maintaining whole-body health, examining digestion as a dynamic, multi-system process rather than a simple breakdown of food. Sam explains how compromised gut function can contribute to systemic issues, from inflammation and immune dysregulation to mood imbalances and chronic disease. Through a functional lens, Sam discusses the integrity of the gut barrier, the clinical relevance of leaky gut, and the impact of the microbiome on broader physiological processes. Sam also clarifies the distinctions between food allergies and intolerances, as well as highlights the influence of the gut-brain axis—emphasising how stress and emotional wellbeing can shape digestive outcomes and chronic health. Discover how evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle strategies can complement your practitioner’s recommendations, to support you in optimising digestive function and uncover the powerful connection between your gut and your whole-body health.
