There are several powerful and healthy ingredients in this one simple Sweet Potato & Cauliflower Soup to boost postpartum health for mom and baby: sweet potatoes, spinach, cauliflower, and bone broth.

Spinach - like most if not all leafy greens - is high in Vitamins A, C, E, and K as well as fiber and calcium.

Cruciferous veggies (like cauliflower and broccoli) are often on the "don't" list for breastfeeding moms because they could increase symptoms of gas discomfort for baby. But this is mostly anecdotal so you'll have to trust your gut and monitor your baby's response when you've eaten a serving or more of these fiber-rich foods. In fact, cruciferous vegetables may boost milk supply in mothers with high estrogen levels and have high levels of Vitamin C, K, Folate, ALA Omega-3 fatty acids, and fiber.

Bone broth is an excellent source of collagen; it's hydrating; and can give your body a good dose of micro and macronutrients like calcium, phosphorous, sodium, magnesium, potassium, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, iron, selenium, zinc, and vitamins A, B2, B12, and E.
