Very Low Salt Stock Cubes
If you would like to add a stock cube to flavour your soup, stew or sauce choose a very low salt stock cube.
The Renal (Kidney) Interest Group dietitians worked with The Public Analyst lab in University Hospital Galway to analyse stock cubes available in Irish shops. The six below were found to have the lowest amount of salt at time of analysis.
Remember that the salt content of products can change and some stock cubes advertised as having reduced/lower salt content may still contain a high amount of salt. Always check the label.
