What is this food?
AI-assisted
Garlic leaves and bulb (often used like a vegetable or as a flavorful add-on in ulam).
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Garlic leaves/bulb can support a healthier diet because they’re low in fat and cholesterol, and they provide dietary fiber (5 g per 100 g) that helps keep your digestion regular and supports fullness. They also have carbohydrates (15.8 g) with some natural sugar (4.5 g), so they fit well as part of meals. Sodium is relatively low (31 mg per 100 g), but the overall sodium in your dish can still rise depending on how much salt, bagoong, patis, or seasoning you add.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use garlic leaves/bulb to flavor your ulam so you may need less salty seasoning.
  • Pair with protein (fish, chicken, tofu, eggs) and fiber-rich vegetables for balanced meals.
  • For portion: aim for about 1–2 servings of vegetables per meal (you can include garlic leaves as part of that).
  • If you’re cooking with lots of oil, keep the oil measured—garlic leaves themselves are naturally low in fat.
  • For snacks, you can include garlic leaves in veggie-based sides (e.g., sautéed greens) instead of relying on salty crackers.
