What is this food?
AI-assisted
Crown daisy (often called “crown daisy leaves” or local leafy greens). It’s a leafy vegetable, usually eaten cooked as part of viands or mixed with other greens.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Crown daisy is low in calories (about 23 kcal per 100 g) and provides dietary fiber (around 2.3 g per 100 g). Fiber helps support regular digestion and can help you feel fuller, which makes it easier to balance your meals. It also has a small amount of carbohydrates and very low fat and cholesterol. Sodium is present (about 89 mg per 100 g), so it’s best to keep the seasoning light—especially if you’re adding bagoong, patis, or lots of salt.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
For your daily pattern (3 full meals + 1–2 snacks), use crown daisy as your extra vegetable at lunch or dinner. Try these practical tips:
  • Cook with less oil (sauté with 1–2 tsp oil) and add garlic/onion for flavor.
  • Go easy on salty sauces (bagoong, patis, soy sauce); taste first before adding more.
  • Pair with a good protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and a sensible serving of rice or other carbs.
  • Aim for at least 1–2 servings of vegetables per meal, depending on your appetite.
