Canned Soup?



I bought a can of this soup last week because it was on sale for $1.50 and usually it is $2.29.

Here is the problem, though. One cup of this soup (which will not really fill you up) has 870 grams of sodium. The salt that is added to canned food products, I have read, is never iodized salt. For thyroid health, you need a bit of idoine in your diet. So if you are going to have salt, make your own soup and add iodized salt.

If I ate this whole can today, I would have consumed 1740 g of sodium. Someone my age should have 1500 g of sodium a day. When will manufacturers start really caring about our health????
