How Healthy Are Packaged Soups?

Packaged Soups are advertised with a lot of health benefits and considered packed with vitamins and proteins but this may not be a fact in most cases you just stuck with a packet full of starch, sodium, and sugar as the vegetable nutrients are destroyed. The nutrient content in packaged soups is really negligible as they have been depleted. Let us look at 3 reasons why your packed soups are really doing you more harm than good:-

• Corn Flour- Most packaged soups have a high content of corn flour this really is a major health hazard as it raises blood sugar content. It could lead to the Yo Yo effect which is extremely harmful to health.  Corn Flour also leads to deposition of fat in the body making one hungrier which leads to more eating and adding on weight.
• Salt- Packed soups contain a high amount of salt which is just not good especially for people with concerns of blood pressure. Excess of salt is detrimental to health and leads to osteoporosis, asthma, kidney diseases; also causing water retention and edema.
• Preservatives – Packed soups are packed with preservatives like coal Tar Azo Dyes, sulfites many of which can cause cancer and other maladies. All preservatives in packaged soups are dehydrated which lose all its ingredients when it comes in contact with light or heat they lose all their nutrients. These soups really carry empty calories which get stored in your body with no use what so ever.

So eating these packed soups may be tasty but not healthy at all. If you are looking for fitness get back to a natural diet of whole grain, protein, and vitamins from natural foods and say good bye to packed soups as they are more a gimmick then any real health asset.
