Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Miso Paste

  • Metabolic Effect: Miso paste is a fermented product, so it facilitates digestion and supports gut health. Thanks to the probiotics it contains, it can strengthen the immune system and have anti-inflammatory effects.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can use miso paste in soups, sauces, or marinades. Consuming it especially with vegetables increases its nutritional value and helps you create a more balanced meal. It is important to pay attention to portion control.
  • Things to Consider: Miso paste contains a high amount of sodium, so it is important for individuals with high blood pressure to limit its consumption. One tablespoon of miso paste can meet a significant portion of your daily sodium needs.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 100 grams of miso paste, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 40 minutes. This is the amount of exercise you should add to your daily activity routine.
