Thai Hot and Sour Soup

Thai Hot and Sour Soup

Thai Hot and Sour Soup, commonly known as “Tom Yum” (ต้มยำ), is a popular Thai dish known for its bold flavors and aromatic ingredients.

This Asian favorite is infused with immune enhancing ginger and lime. Ginger kicks in a touch of heat that also helps with recovery from workouts. A recent study performed by the University of Georgia, published in The Journal of Pain, found that daily supplementation with ginger reduced exercise induced muscle pain by 25%. So keep flexing those muscles!
