In every culture and kitchen, soup has long held a place of comfort and healing. Whether it's a bowl served during illness or a warm dish shared on a cold evening, soup is nourishment at its most elemental. At Ossa Organic, we believe that traditional, slow-cooked soup, enriched with bone broth, is one of the most powerful tools for restoring gut health and strengthening immunity. Our Organic Free Range Traditional Chicken and Vegetable Soup enhanced with Chicken Bone Broth is crafted to deliver exactly that.
In this blog, we’ll explore the deep health benefits of bone broth-based soups and why they’re not just comforting but also profoundly healing. From digestive support to immune function, we’ll walk you through why Ossa’s approach to chicken and vegetable soup is a true superfood.
A Return to Ancestral Wisdom
Soup made from scratch, especially when simmered with bones, herbs, and vegetables, has been used for centuries to heal and nourish. Before processed foods, our ancestors made broths and soups from the whole animal, understanding intuitively that this practice extracted essential minerals and nutrients. At Ossa Organic, we honour this tradition, using organic chicken bones, fresh seasonal vegetables, and slow cooking to ensure that every jar delivers optimal nourishment.
Why Bone Broth Matters
The foundation of our soup is chicken bone broth—and that’s where the magic begins. Bone broth is incredibly rich in amino acids like glycine and proline, along with collagen, gelatin, and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. These nutrients are released through long, slow simmering of the bones, creating a deeply nourishing base.
Here’s what sets bone broth apart:
-
Supports gut health: The gelatin in bone broth helps to seal the gut lining, supporting people who may suffer from leaky gut or digestive issues.
-
Strengthens immunity: Collagen-rich broth supports the immune system by repairing the gut wall and supporting nutrient absorption.
-
Reduces inflammation: Glycine, found in abundance in bone broth, has been shown to reduce systemic inflammation and support liver detoxification.
When you combine this powerhouse liquid with fresh vegetables and herbs, you get more than a soup—you get a holistic wellness remedy.
What Makes Ossa’s Chicken and Vegetable Soup Different?
Many commercial soups are filled with preservatives, artificial flavourings, and sugar. They may use stock cubes or synthetic enhancers that offer none of the benefits of real bone broth.
Ossa’s version is different:
-
Organic, free-range chicken bones
-
Slow-cooked for over 24 hours to extract maximum nutrients
-
No additives, preservatives, or hidden sugars
-
Rich, savoury taste that’s naturally comforting
-
Packed with seasonal vegetables like carrots, onions, celery, and garlic
This is the kind of soup your grandmother might have made—if she had access to fully traceable organic ingredients and a chef’s slow-cooking technique.
Gut Healing and Digestive Support
One of the standout benefits of Ossa’s bone broth based soup is its ability to support digestive health. Many people today suffer from compromised digestion, whether due to stress, medication, poor diet, or food sensitivities. The gelatin and collagen in bone broth support the intestinal lining, helping to reduce gut permeability and inflammation.
Adding this kind of soup to your daily routine—whether as a light lunch, a starter, or an evening meal—gives your body a digestible, bioavailable source of protein and nutrients that soothe and repair from the inside out.
Immune Support Through the Seasons
As we move through seasonal transitions, colds, flus, and other illnesses tend to rise. Our immune system is directly linked to the gut, so what you eat plays a massive role in your ability to fight off infection. Bone broth-enhanced soup is ideal during these times for several reasons:
-
It's easy to digest even when appetite is low.
-
It provides warming comfort that promotes circulation.
-
The broth supports hydration with electrolytes and minerals.
-
It fuels immune cells with the building blocks they need to function effectively.
At Ossa, we view food as medicine—and few foods are more medicinal than a warming bowl of chicken and vegetable soup.
Bone Broth and Hydration
One often overlooked benefit of bone broth is its role in supporting hydration. Unlike plain water, bone broth delivers essential electrolytes like potassium and magnesium, which help maintain fluid balance in the body. This makes our soup an excellent choice after illness, travel, or periods of exertion where rehydration is critical.
Additionally, if you’ve fasted or are coming off a detox or cleanse, this soup acts as a gentle, nourishing bridge that won’t shock the system while still giving you the nutrients you need.
Whole-Food Nutrition in a Jar
With our bone broth-enhanced chicken and vegetable soup, you’re getting a complete meal made from whole, organic ingredients:
-
Protein from chicken and collagen peptides
-
Fibre from vegetables
-
Essential fats from natural chicken oils
-
Vitamins & minerals from bones, herbs, and vegetables
Because it’s cooked slowly, these nutrients remain intact and are more bioavailable than in many modern ultra-processed foods. This is slow food with fast results—nourishment that your body recognises and can absorb easily.
For All Ages and Stages
Whether you’re cooking for young children, recovering from illness, or simply trying to support your health proactively, this soup is suitable for everyone. It’s especially beneficial for:
-
Children who need a nutrient-rich food without additives
-
Older adults seeking collagen and joint support

Pregnant or postpartum women in need of healing foods

Athletes and fitness enthusiasts needing recovery nutrition
This isn’t just soup. It’s a strategic addition to your daily self-care.
