Salty! Has over 27% of the daily sodium max
The average American consumes 5,000 mg of sodium daily — twice the recommended amount amount of 2400mg for healthy adults, this is 1 teaspoon of salt.
For medical reasons many people should not exceed 1500mg of sodium.
Surprisingly, you're responsible for only 15% of the sodium in your diet the bigger part - 75% of the sodium that you consume each day comes from processed foods, not home cooking or the salt shaker.
Excess sodium intake increases the risk of high blood pressure, hypernatremia, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and other heart problems.
Are these reasons enough to cut the sodium intake? No doubt! -
Convert Salt tsps to Sodium mg easily
Salt (NaCl) is not excactly sodium (Na).
It is not right to use these terms as synonyms.
The FDA recommended limit of sodium is 2,300 mg per day (or even less - about 1500 mg while one is on low sodium diets).
This is much less than the weight of salt.
(5,750 mg per day or 3,750 mg for low sodium diet) and not so convenient to calculate.
Know how much sodium is in your salt - without a calculator:
1/4 tsp salt = 600 mg sodium
1/2 tsp salt = 1200 mg sodium
3/4 tsp salt = 1800 mg sodium
1 tsp salt = 2300 mg sodium -
2 tsp of sugars per serving
This volume includes both naturally occurring from ingredients and specially added sugars.
USDA tells us that last years each American consumed an average 130 pounds of caloric sweeteners per year!
That works out to 30 tsp of sugars per day approximately 480 extra calories!
Just to think: Eating just 200 more calories daily than your body requires for body functioning and exercise leads to a 20-pound weight gain in a year. -
High in fiber! Great More than 24% of daily needs!
Eat more fiber. You've heard it many times. But why it is so good for your health?
Dietary fiber is best known for its ability to make our digestion going right.
So want to prevent or relieve constipation - eat more fiber!
There are also other great health benefits as well, such as lowering your risk of diabetes, heart disease and cancer, and helping to maintain a healthy weight by helping to feel you full longer.
The best source of fiber are fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes and not processed foods with added fiber. -
A good source of protein
For many vegans and vegetarians, it's important to get enough protein.
The product you've just scanned will provide you with 16% or more of your daily protein requirement.
If you're a vegan having trouble meeting your protein needs, try nuts and beans.
Sprinkling nuts onto any dish is a quick, easy and nutritious solution.
Try adding beans in places you might not normally eat them.
Add beans to pasta dishes, stir fries and even salads.
While meat alternatives like Tofu do provide a quick and easy protein intake, they should not be your only source of protein.
Eat proteins from a variety of sources for best results. -
Great source of protein and fiber
Beans and legumes are great source of protein and fiber. But You should watch for sodium in canned versions.
-
Naturally high in Vitamin C
You get real, natural easy absorbing Vitamin C from this product, not as a artificial fortified ingredient.
This is great! Let's try to get the best from the real food, because we get too much from artificial ingredients nowdays. -
Not a really good source of calcium!
Cheese is a generally a good source of calcium (more than 10% daily value per serving) - but not this.
If you are looking for calcium - swap for something with higher calcium content.
By the way, you don't need high fat or calories to get high calcium.
Many "lite" versions of cheese provide 30% of daily calcium needs.
Choose cheeses that are a naturally good source of calcium.
If you're worried about fat and calories, pre-sliced cheese, cheese sticks or cheese squares
are a great way to make sure your portion is the right size.
The FDA defines a serving of cheese as 1 ounce (30 grams). -
