Frustrated With Doctors and Digestive Issues?

I was too.

No one could pinpoint what was wrong.

I tried everything—doctors, supplements, different diets—nothing worked. Every time I thought I was getting better, my symptoms would flare up again.

I began to feel like I couldn’t enjoy food anymore.  

So I turned to what I had learned from Cornell's Nutrition and Healthy Living Program about the "Food as Medicine" philosophy.

When I started researching I was shocked to learn that over 70 million Americans, and women in particular, struggled with GI-related issues.

That’s why I started 18 Chestnuts. 

Soup has always been my favorite food, a comforting connection to my childhood, where my grandmother’s homemade soups were the highlight of my day. 

But I knew I needed to create soups that weren’t just delicious. They also had to be easy on the digestive system and filled with nutrients that help heal and restore the gut. 

I hope to bring a bit of healing, comfort, and nourishment to your life, one spoonful at a time.

The One Food You Can Enjoy Worry-Free

Functionally formulated and made to support different nutritional diets or needs. The use of fresh ingredients & chef-curated recipes delivers gourmet flavor in every spoonful.

But What Really Makes This The Go-To Meal For Sensitive Stomachs?

We've learned that so much of disease is preventable through proper nutrition. Here's how we've made it as easy as opening a jar of soup.

Real Food

As we age, the natural cycles slow down and don’t work as well. One of the best ways to aid in that process? Eating REAL foods. We go the extra mile to source fresh produce in order to make every soup with only the freshest & whole ingredients.

High In Fiber

Americans’ fiber intake is 40% to 50% of what it actually should be. A balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and now 18 Chestnut soups, can provide the fiber that builds good bacteria and supports gut health.

Gluten-Free

Sensitive to gluten or struggle with IBS? Every 18 Chestnut soup is fully gluten-free. Our soups are too delicious to not be enjoyed by everyone.

Zero Added Sugar

When it comes to quick-to-eat meals, most options contain loads of added sugars that can eliminate the good bacteria in your gut & lead to further digestive issues. Every 18 Chestnut Soup soup proudly contains zero added sugar. Only the natural goods here!

Vegan & Protein Packed

Rated the best plant-based convenience product, all 18 chestnut soups are 100% vegan. The best part? Some of our soups contain up to 10g of protein per serving.

Ready To Eat, Never Frozen

Many soups available online are either frozen or condensed, which can result in a watery and flavorless product. Our soups, however, are ready to eat straight from the jar!

All 18 Chestnuts soups are also shelf-stable for over a year and made without harsh preservatives to ensure gentle digestion.

Functional Medicine That Tastes Delicious.

Thanks To My Lovely Wife

"18 Chestnuts Roasted Cauliflower Soup is on a par with the finest jarred soups that we tasted while traveling throughout Europe several years ago.

The soup tastes rich & fresh without any "canned" soup taste. I am a home chef and enjoy making my own soup but there are those chilly nights where opening a jar of 18 Chestnuts and tossing in some extra toppings makes a lot of sense!

We just received our second order of 18 Chestnuts soups and are now loyal customers. Thanks 18 Chestnuts and thanks to my lovely wife for discovering your great soups!"

Rather Give My Money To Better Food

"I ordered 3 jars and knew without a doubt it wouid be amazing. First, if you think it’s too expensive then you don’t know what quality ingredients cost. If you don’t like the taste then you’re not accustomed to healthy food. Soups ate off the chart delicious and healthy. I’d rather give my money to better food than doctors. I’ll be ordering again and soon"

Having Trouble Eating

Thank you for this delicious bean soup. I’m having trouble eating right now and nothing tastes good. I was able to enjoy this soup though I love how creamy it is.

Knew I Had To Try It!

I’ve been a fan of Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and tomato soup since I was a boy. When I first saw the ads on Facebook I knew I’d have to try some. My wife and I absolutely love it! The little touches of basil and the red bell peppers just elevate the soup to a whole new level. I wish I could buy it locally but hey, I’ll be enjoying it all the more any way I can purchase it.

Previous Gut Issues

"With my past gut issues, it's important to me for excellent ingredients, and then taste comes in as a bonus if it's decent. Your soups have the ingredients and taste that I love. Fresh and simple."
