What is this food?
Chicken and asparagus soup (a light, protein-based soup). In a 100g serving, it’s low in calories and fat, with small amounts of carbs and fiber.
Why it matters to health
This soup can fit well into a balanced Filipino day (3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks). It provides lean protein to support fullness and muscle maintenance, while being light in calories (20 kcal per 100g). The fiber (0.7g) and low carbs help keep digestion steady and can support better blood sugar control when paired with the rest of your meal. It also has sodium (184mg) and sugar (0.8g), so it’s best to enjoy it as part of your overall daily balance, especially if you’re watching salt intake.
Healthier tips
- Pair it with a satisfying main: add a reasonable serving of rice or whole grains, plus more non-starchy veggies if you can.
- For better fullness, include more chicken (or add tofu) and keep the soup broth as the base.
- Watch the salt: if you’re cooking at home, use less seasoning and rely on herbs/garlic/onion for flavor.
- Use it as a starter or a snack portion (small bowl) to help you eat a balanced meal without overdoing calories.
