Due to the increase in single-person and dual-income households and trends such as home cooking and solo eating, the consumption of home convenience foods such as soups, stews, stews, and hot pots has recently been rapidly increasing.
The biggest advantage of home-cooked meals is that they are convenient as a meal replacement. However, as convenient as it is, its nutrition may be unbalanced.
As a result of the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety’s investigation of nutritional content information, single stew items lack nutritional content. Therefore, it is better to eat rice and side dishes together.
Home convenience foods such as soups, stews, and stews are high in sodium.
The average sodium content per serving of domestic soups, stews, and stews at home is regarding half the recommended daily sodium intake of the World Health Organization (WHO). If you eat one serving of convenience food, you will be consuming half of the WHO daily recommended amount.
In order to eat healthy home-cooked meals high in sodium, such as soups, stews, stews, and hotpots, it is best to follow three rules.
▲ Check nutritional information label
Soups, stews, and stews vary greatly in sodium content depending on the product. To ensure taste and nutritional health, it is important to check the nutrition label, including calories and sodium, before purchasing.
▲ Cooked with sodium-reducing vegetables
It is advisable to control sodium intake by cooking with onions and green onions, which are high in potassium, which helps excrete sodium from the body.
Additionally, eating fruits high in potassium, such as bananas and tomatoes, helps excrete sodium.
▲ Supplementation of insufficient nutrients
Frequent consumption of home-cooked meals high in sodium should be avoided as much as possible.
When eating home-cooked meals such as soups, stews, and stews, it is a good idea to also consume foods that supplement the missing calories and protein, such as fried eggs.
It is good to eat foods such as sweet potatoes, almonds, and milk that help eliminate sodium while replenishing the missing calories.
