What is this food?
AI-assisted Cashew fruit (the fleshy part around the cashew nut). It’s a sweet-tangy fruit snack, usually eaten fresh or used in drinks and desserts.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Cashew fruit gives you carbohydrates and natural sugars for quick energy, plus dietary fiber (0.8 g per 100 g) that can help support regular digestion. It also has very low fat and almost no sodium, which makes it a lighter fruit option. Since it has 7.5 g sugar per 100 g, it’s best to enjoy it as part of your daily meals/snacks so your total sugar intake stays balanced.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For snacks, aim for a small bowl (about 1/2 to 1 cup) instead of large portions.
- Pair it with protein or fiber for better fullness—e.g., cashew fruit with plain yogurt, a handful of nuts, or with chia.
- If you’re having it with rice-heavy meals, keep the fruit portion smaller that day.
- Choose fresh or less-sweetened versions when available (especially for drinks or desserts).
Common Filipino dishes
Cashew fruit juice, ginataang prutas (fruit in coconut milk), fruit salad with banana and mango, cashew fruit-based drinks, fruit cups
