Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Japanese Soup

  • Metabolic Effect: Japanese soup does not raise blood sugar quickly due to its low carbohydrate content. However, it is important to pay attention to the sodium content, especially for individuals with high blood pressure.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can enrich the soup with vegetables and proteins to make it a more balanced meal. Consuming it with a slice of whole wheat bread or a small salad will increase the feeling of fullness.
  • Things to Consider: The high sodium content in Japanese soup can be more pronounced, especially in instant soups. Therefore, it is important to prefer homemade versions and control the sodium content. A bowl of Japanese soup can meet a significant portion of your daily sodium needs.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn 148 calories, you need to walk at a light pace for about 25 minutes. This is an exercise that you can easily integrate into your daily activity.
