Now discuss this fish stock.
THE FISH STOCK.
He writes Mireia R. L. Tarragona (Spain). He says he has read the two entries titled "Emergency Guide for Christmas" and "Understanding the elderly." Both speak of the vegetable broth.
Your question is a reference to the stock of fish that they buy regularly. He asks if it is healthy nutrition as hygienist.
I reply that I do not know all the brands and products of the Earth but that is easily solved. I ask you to send me a photo of the product and I write the list of ingredients in the vegetable broth.
I will not get to appreciate the trademarks, but the ingredients in a product. And know its quality ingredients.
This is a list of ingredients that brings the fish stock that brand and I comment below:
- Water: and specifies nothing is understood to be packaged without chlorine. Those who have read the entry on the water you know that quality is more distilled, then osmosis, the treated activated carbon, the tap and bottled.
- Iodized table salt: food and carry the appropriate amount of sodium and potassium in amounts balanced. For hygienist on nutrition and more if salt has been added artificially iodine.
- Exalted taste (E-621, E-635): do not understand why you have to enhance the flavor of food. The natural thing is to accept the one with the source. The truth is that it does not understand: how the products are denatured lose not only their properties (vitamins, minerals, trace elements) but also its flavor (becomes insipid). To solve the problem some genius invented the E-621 and E-635. These food additives. The first is monosodium glutamate (hydrolyzed protein or yeast extract) and the second disodium 5'-ribonucleotide. They come together both to enhance four MSG, and create the so-called umami (taste tasty). These are substances that our bodies need to remove to prevent long-term poisoning. In Australia it is forbidden to E-635. For some it will be.
- Lactose: if milk is a healthy food does not contain lactose seems totally inadequate. Especially if you are lactose intolerant. This ingredient spare. Or maybe what's left are massive amounts of milk producers who sell at low cost and reused without being necessary. Its function is to sweeten the broth and stabilize proteins.
- Hydrolyzed vegetable protein (soy and wheat): I imagine that if you buy a fish stock looking to find fish and cereals and legumes. Has anyone seen the fish somewhere?
- Hake powder (0.1 %): well, here is the fish. Wait a minute. 0.1 % of fish is not the piece that I give my cat a snack. Why is dust? I'll tell you: the quantities of fish that can not be sold or that are second quality dehydrated. Once that has no water and dust becomes so small amounts are added you will need an electron microscope to find it. And if you wear glasses better not even try or you'll go blind. To nurture with that amount you'll forget.
- Yeast extract: is a waste product of the brewing and used by the food industry as an additive. In Germany there is a controversy because it is confused with MSG, yeast extract as the former is also known as the second. It happens that the food industry uses to introduce confusion where MSG is labeled yeast extract. Technically legal but unethical. Yeast extract is used on organic farms as a substitute for antibiotics because it is a natural stimulant of the immune system.
- Prawns lyophilized powder (0.1 %): Freeze-drying is a method of dehydration by freezing and subsequent ice pressure gasification created that is used to obtain soluble shrimp. Come on, so you will not find a piece of shrimp and you choke. Although 0.1 % and a fly may cause choking.
- Concentrate Tomato: do not even bother to put some tomatoes and crushed. Tomato concentrate allows real one to fill 10 boxes of fish from the broth. Neither quality nor quantity. To say that the tomato is a fruit and not to mix fruit with any food as the norm. As an exception is something else.
- Dehydrated Onion: do not understand why the onion dehydrated if water is biological and organic leads (can absorb 100 % of its nutrients). Well, yes I know and I'll tell you: tons of dehydrated onions for conservation reasons (bought second quality cheaper) and to reduce its weight and volume (you may decrease 8 times its original weight thus reducing the cost of transport and packaging). In another post I will talk about dehydration.
- Palm oil: it is cheaper than olive oil and sunflower oil. And worse quality because half of its composition is a saturated fat. Take this steak and 5 together is the same. To include ice cream and margarine fatten you understand what is not written. Besides it is detrimental to you for our planet and that because of their indiscriminate plantation tropical forests are disappearing. The main reason is its use as biodiesel. Imagine what oil is used for French fries, hamburger and in some restaurants. Now you know why eating fat in those sites.
- Dehydrated Carrots: same thing happens with the onions. Premium is the cost and quick profit above the health of people.
- Spices: which are not saying so is unknown.
- Wheat flour: their role will be to thicken so that when you deposit the contents of the broth in a saucepan seem like there to fish and everything.
- Dehydrated Tomato Puree: here we find truth and tomato concentrate. But not yet. I commented that the tomato is not right to mix with food and less if you are dehydrated.
- Dehydrated glucose syrup: if the lactose has been sweet enough broth for added this component does not contribute nutritionally.
- Thickener (carob seed flour and guar seeds): more thickeners to provide a consistent texture to the fish stock. Ingredient also spare.
- Flavourings (contains soy): due to denaturation of the fish stock or knows anything or smell anything that requires a flavoring to make it smell good and as close to fish. Is not it easier to use fish to know and smell fishy?
- Lobster dried (0.001 %): luxury will take lobster. One moment, 0.001 % is the ten thousand thousandth of hake appetizer my cat. There must be a scammer has first to say that lobster!
- White wine extract: does not say much. I imagine that a drop well concentrated so you do not get drunk and gives an exquisite touch. I guess you had to put something in the ingredients and filling it is also not necessary.
- Sugar: also known as sucrose is often not included when lactose because the latter already performs the function of sweetening. That is, we find none of them 3 healthy sweeteners and that we only provide empty calories of nutrients.
- Lemon powder: the lemon is an acid and fruit. Fruits should not be mixed with food. With good and purifying it with lemon juice and water quality without sugar!
- Saffron: 2010 priced at € 1,000 per kilo from Iran puts the label of appellation of origin in Spain (not all but most) and sells for € 3,000. In some cases (not all) is used cardamom and other plant residues rather than the stigma of the flower. So assuming it is legitimate or not unlikely, I would say it is wearing saffron. Unless it is a 0.00000000000000000000000000001%. So, yes.
- Extract of celery: celery leaves would provide vitamins and minerals of interest. An extract rather provides very little.
- Contains: gluten, soy, fish, shellfish, celery and lactose: well that may apply by intolerance to one of those components. But really, the amount is so low that I doubt that your body can react negatively. Rather, it split in two with laughter.
- May contain traces of nuts: this means that no one looks at the final content of the fish stock to determine exactly what it takes. Surely the fellow on duty has risen to a giant pot and started to introduce all that has caught until it has reached its snack time. On his return he remembers has scored that has taken and what is not listed as "may contain ...".
Well, at this point you can extract yourself the same conclusion as me: the fish stock is healthy or not healthy. Not even a food. Come on, I would not give it or my cat. It is my friend and I like her. And, as the philosopher said, I do not want for your cat does not want for you.
If you want a fish stock have two options:
1 - You buy another brand.
2 - You do it yourself.
My advice is do it yourself. So you know that the products they use are quality.
I can use vegetable broth as a base and add the fish you have.
The fish soup as a starter you can use as a basis for a soup, a paella basis of fish, etc.. Although the nutrient will have been in the broth can take advantage of both the fish and vegetables (you provide mainly fiber).
That is all.
Thank you for your query, Mireia.
A greeting.
