It can be included generously in calorie-controlled meals without significantly increasing overall energy intake.
Each 100g serving contains 0.10g of salt, meeting the UK/EU "low salt" nutrition-claim threshold. The NHS recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day, so choosing lower-salt foods like this one makes it easier to stay within that limit and supports healthy blood pressure. Tesco Rocket & Babyleaf Salad is 35 kcal per 100g on its own, but the real number is what it adds to your full day. Our carbs food calculator shows you that.
