I Had A Ques. About Canned Soup

[NETTY12]

HI ALL! I WANTED TO KNOW IF WHAT I'M DOING IS OK AND ESPECIALLY CAN IT WORK FOR THE INDUCTION:

I TEND TO EAT THIS CANNED SOUP FOR LUNCH BY PROGRESSIVE AND ITS CARB MONITORED SO ITS MADE ESPECIALLY THOSE ON A CARB CONTROLLED DIET!

ITS A CHICKEN CHEESE ENCHILADA STYLE SOUP WITH 6 GRAMS OF NET CARBS - BUT HERE'S THE WHOLE NUTRITIONAL LIST:

CALORIES - 190, calories from fat 120
TOTAL FAT - 13g
SATURATED FAT - 4g
CHOLESTEROL - 30mg
SODIUM - 970mg
TOTAL CARBS - 7g
DIETARY FIBER - 1g
SUGARS - 1g
PROTEIN - 9g

PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS A GOOD IDEA FOOD TO FOLLOW WHILE ON ATKINS AND EVEN MORE FOR THE INDUCTION PHASE??

THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE!

Doubtful this is ok. Read the ingredients--are all those things on the acceptable food list for induction? Soups like those are generally loaded with preservatives and other things not allowed and are generally no nos, ESPECIALLY for induction.

This is not just about net carbs, it's about eating appropriate foods as well.

It's very high in sodium.
It has ingredients that aren't really the most beneficial for you like MSG and corn starch isn't conducive to weight loss either. I would suggest making soup with the ingredients that you like in this soup and then you can control what goes into it.
It may stall you... or not, but I think something out of your kitchen would taste much better.

Yep, donate to the local food shelter or if you have your receipt take them back to the store and get your money back.
