What is this food?
This is a vegetable soup (veg-forward soup) — a light, savory dish with mixed vegetables. For every 100 g, it provides about 69 kcal, with carbohydrates (12 g), dietary fiber (1.5 g), and relatively low fat (1.4 g).
Why it matters to health
Vegetable soup is helpful for everyday meals because it adds fiber (1.5 g per 100 g) which supports fullness and smoother digestion. It also has low fat and no cholesterol. The sugar content (4.6 g) is naturally present in vegetables, but the sodium is fairly high (494 mg per 100 g), especially if the soup is seasoned with broth, bouillon, or salty toppings—so it’s best to watch portions and how it’s prepared. Overall, it fits well as part of a balanced day when you pair it with a main viand and keep salt in check.
Healthier tips
- Use it as your pang-sabaw or starter: start with a bowl, then follow with your main viand and rice.
- For lower sodium, choose less salty broth or use half the seasoning; add flavor with garlic, onion, herbs, and pepper.
- Increase veggie variety (more colors) to boost fiber and micronutrients without adding many calories.
- If you’re having it as a snack, keep it to a small bowl and pair with a protein source if needed (e.g., boiled egg or tofu) to stay satisfied.
- Because it’s a savory soup, aim for moderation with salty ingredients—balance it across your 3 meals and 1–2 snacks.
