What is this food?
AI-assisted Crab (mud/mangrove crab) cooked without added fat. It’s mainly a lean protein food, with little to no carbohydrates.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Crab provides protein to help build and repair body tissues and supports satiety so you feel full between meals. It also has some fat, including saturated fat, so it’s best to keep portions reasonable and avoid pairing it with very fatty sides. The sodium is moderate to high (247 mg per 100 g), so if it’s salted, bagoong-based, or heavily seasoned, watch your overall salt intake across the day—especially if you also eat salty snacks. Since it has no carbs, sugar, and fiber in this data, it works best when paired with fiber-rich vegetables and smart carb portions for balanced meals.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For a balanced 3-meals + 1–2 snacks day: use crab as your protein, then add non-starchy veggies (e.g., kangkong, pechay, ampalaya) and a measured carb (e.g., 1/2–1 cup cooked rice or kamote).
- Choose cooking methods like boiled, steamed, or grilled with minimal oil.
- If the dish is salty (e.g., with bagoong or lots of seasoning), reduce the sauce and add more vegetables to stretch the meal.
- Watch portion size: start with about 1 palm-sized serving (around 100–150 g cooked) per meal, then adjust based on your hunger and activity.
