About this food

About Soup: Sodium varies hugely across condiments and oils - soy sauce and sauces are sodium-dense while most plant oils are nearly sodium-free. Swapping salty sauces for oils is a practical sodium trick. As a Condiments & Oils item, its role in a kidney diet depends mainly on mineral content.

Soup's sodium is 1300% of the limit, the highest of the three. Herbs and lemon are practical salt substitutes.
