Soup powder, instant, reduced calorie, assorted flavours

Instant reduced-calorie soup powder is a dried mixture used to make soup by adding water. The data cover assorted flavours and refer to the dry powder, not prepared soup. Per 100g, it provides 1384 kJ of energy, 52g of carbohydrate, 13g of protein and 15g of salt.

Carbohydrate supplies energy, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Adding water dilutes the soup but does not reduce the total amount of salt in the powder used. The amount of powder used therefore affects the salt and energy content of the prepared serving.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (10 packets, 4 brands). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: LFRA, Nutrient analysis of miscellaneous foods, 1992.
