Dr Jockers Comments:
This recipe is so refreshing and energizing. Cucumbers are loaded with silica and potassium and are extremely cleansing. The avocado makes this creamy and taste amazing and adds fat-soluble carotenoid antioxidants. Garlic and green onions provide immune boosting sulfur compounds and lemon provides tons of organic acids and vitamin C.
This soup will alkalize your body and help you de-inflame and fight off chronic disease. You will also feel light, refreshed and full of energy. The combination of ingredients helps you to feel satiated because of the nutrient density and the healthy fats that it contains.

Hey, the whey product is not list d in the recipe. Is it not necessary? And where would I find that in stores in the Atlanta area?
It is not necessary Katy!
can i leave skin and seeds from cucumber since it’s an important part
Yes that is fine!
What can I use to replace the avacado?
You can do olive oil
How much olive oil do you use to replace the 2 avocados? I’m unfortunately on dialysis (from kidney failure due to an ecoli infection) and have to vigilantly guard my potassium intake-avocados & sweet potatoes are notoriously high in potassium, much as I love both. Your recipe looks delicious. Do you have any low potassium & Low phosphorus recipes?
You could try 2-3 tbsps!
better cold or Hot?
Either is great but most do this cold!
This soup, but without the avocado s, is in the mediteranion countries Turkey Greece N Macedonië ect. a welknown cold soul in nummer. It cools down the body wenn of is het at known as very healthy
Yes for sure Chris!
As usual your recipes are great!
Thank you so much!
Daar dr Jockers,
Is there an alternative for avocado. Sweet potato perhaps, oud courgette.
I was the documentary about how avocado ‘s are grown. People stay without water and possebillaty to grow food.
So unhuman, awfull. See the docu

Thank you both so much for this super delicious and easy healing soup! We just love it and make it once a week now. I personally love how it makes me feel after a fast. I keep it on the rather thick side for other family to get into it as a salad dressing. That worked👏
You two are very creative with your healing recipes and this family is super grateful! Thank you for creating it and sharing it
Thank you Amanda! Blessings to you!
LOVE this soup! Perfect for those of us on an AIP diet. A wonderful cold summer soup. I usually add whatever is in the fridge that needs to be used. Today it was fresh parsley, spinach and some leftover zucchini that was in the fridge. Can also top with nutritional yeast and olive oil for extra nutrition and fat. For those asking, zucchini(+ olive oil) might be an option to sub for avocado. It blends up kind of creamy. Thanks for sharing all these great options!
