What is this food?
AI-assisted
Carabeef reticulum is the “honeycomb” part of the carabao’s stomach (a type of organ meat). It’s mainly used as a protein viand, usually cooked until tender.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
As a protein food, it helps support muscle repair and keeps you full in your meals. In this 100g serving, it has about 119 kcal and 6.9g total fat (with 2.41g saturated fat). It also has very little carbs and sugar, but it contains 133mg sodium. So it’s a good choice when you want protein, but it’s best to pair it with plenty of vegetables and keep the serving size reasonable—especially if you’re watching saturated fat and salt.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • For your 3 full meals + 1–2 snacks a day, use carabeef reticulum as your protein for lunch or dinner, then add 1–2 cups of non-starchy vegetables (e.g., cabbage, pechay, kangkong, carrots).
  • Choose cooking methods that use less added oil and less salty sauces; go easy on seasoning mixes.
  • Portion guide: aim for about 2–3 palm-sized servings of protein per day total (depending on your appetite and activity), and spread it across meals.
  • If you’re having it with rice, keep rice to a normal serving and add more veggies to balance the meal.
