We recommend miso soup with
a lot of healthy ingredients, that are rich in kalium. |
|
Even though salt content in a miso soup is
low, you can add various kinds of ingredients that help lower salt
intake.
For Example, spinach, garland chrysantheme, and root vegetables, etc.,
that are rich in kalium will prevent systemic absorption of salt.
Seaweed, burdock, and konnyaku, etc., will help to discharge salt
outside the body.
We recommend you to cook miso soup with several healthy ingredients
mixed together. |
