What is this food?
AI-assisted
Salted cucumber (cucumber preserved/salted).
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Cucumber is mostly water, so it helps you feel full without many calories (about 37 kcal per 100g). It also provides dietary fiber (3.9g) which supports regular digestion. However, salted versions can be high in sodium (about 3959mg per 100g), so eating too much may raise your salt intake—especially if you also have salty viands, instant noodles, or processed snacks in the day. The good news: it’s still a nice add-on when used in the right portion and frequency.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use it as a side or topping (a small bowl or a few slices) rather than the main ulam.
  • Pair with balanced meals: add a good protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and a sensible serving of rice or other carbs.
  • If you can, rinse or soak salted cucumber briefly, then drain—this can help reduce the salt taste.
  • For snacks, keep it to 1 small serving and avoid stacking multiple salty foods in the same day.
  • Choose fresh cucumber or lightly seasoned options more often when possible.
