Soups, mmmmm, mmmmm, good

     One of my favorite foods is soup and it's one of those great diet foods that almost anyone can enjoy.  Why are soups so good?

  • It takes a long time to eat
  • Most soups are low calorie
  • It's filling
  • It's good for you

    There was a study a few years ago that stated soup added to a diet will speed up your metabolism and reduce the hunger cravings.  There are two things to look out for, creamy soups (higher in calorie) and the salt level in soups.  Unfortunately, most canned soups are also high in salt, so take that into consideration when eating soup.  Healthy Choice puts out a low sodium soup in a can, so that might be the best, or better yet, homemade soup, mmmmm.
