What this means for your health

What is in it

Salsa is a low‑calorie food. In each 100 g serving it supplies 29 kcal, 1.44 g protein, 0.19 g total fat, 6.74 g carbohydrates, 1.8 g dietary fiber, 656 mg sodium, 28 mg calcium, 0.42 mg iron, 15.2 mg magnesium, 258 mg potassium, 0.2 mg zinc, and 24 µg vitamin A.

What it means for your health

The modest calorie count and low fat make it a light addition to meals. The fiber content can help support normal digestion. The sodium amount is relatively high, so people who need to limit salt may want to use it in moderation. Potassium and magnesium contribute to normal muscle and nerve function.

Good to know

Because the sodium level is notable, checking the label on different brands can help you choose a lower‑salt option. The vitamin A and iron amounts are small but add to overall nutrient intake. This is general education, not medical advice.
