With the complex carbohydrates from chestnuts the blood sugar level is kept in balance and unpleasant cravings are curbed. Leeks have an antibiotic and germ-inhibiting effect due to their essential oils - perfect for annoying infections.

If you like, you can also replace the leeks with 2 white onions, which also tastes very good. For a little crunch, you can sprinkle the finished soup with a handful of chopped walnuts.
