Besides reducing salt intake during cooking, choosing low-sodium soy sauce is equally crucial. However, some unscrupulous merchants in the market, in pursuit of profit, even tamper with the claims of low-sodium soy sauce. Renowned host Li Jing revealed in her video that these merchants dilute soy sauce with water to lower its concentration and then add flavor enhancers to maintain the taste. However, these flavor enhancers also contain a large amount of sodium, contradicting the original intention of "reducing salt for health."
With the dazzling array of soy sauce products in supermarkets, identifying truly low-sodium soy sauce has become a major challenge for consumers. In response, Li Jing reminds consumers to carefully check the simplicity of the ingredient list and the sodium content figure marked on the bottle. To help consumers make informed choices, Li Jing specifically recommends June Fresh Light 8g Low-Sodium Soy Sauce. This soy sauce has a simple ingredient list, containing only four raw materials: water, soybeans, wheat, and salt, with a sodium content as low as 290mg/10g.
