What is this food?
AI-assisted
Crevalle (even-bellied) fish, a type of fish that’s mainly used as a protein source.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
This fish is low in carbohydrates and provides protein, which helps keep you full and supports muscle and body repair. It also has healthy fats in small amounts, but it contains saturated fat (0.82 g per 100 g) and cholesterol (56 mg per 100 g), so it’s best to pair it with plenty of vegetables and choose cooking methods that don’t add too much oil. Sodium is relatively low (83 mg per 100 g), which is helpful, especially if you’re mindful of salty sauces and seasoning.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • For your daily pattern (3 meals + 1–2 snacks), aim to include fish at least a few times a week, and keep the serving around 1 palm-sized portion (about 100–150 g cooked) per meal.
  • Choose grilled, steamed, or baked preparation. If you fry, use less oil and avoid frequent deep-frying.
  • Pair with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., ampalaya, kangkong, pechay, okra) and a serving of rice or root crops in appropriate portions.
  • Go easy on salty ingredients (toyo, patis, bagoong, salted fish). Use herbs, calamansi, vinegar, garlic, and spices for flavor.
