What is this food?
AI-assisted Lamb neck is a cut of lamb meat. It’s mainly a protein-rich food, and it also has some fat—especially saturated fat—depending on how much fat is included in the cut.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted For everyday meals, lamb neck can help you meet your protein needs for muscle repair and staying full. In 100g, it has about 141 kcal and 7.3g total fat, with 3.06g saturated fat. It has 0g carbs and 0g fiber, so it won’t add fiber to your plate—pairing it with vegetables, beans, or whole grains helps balance your meal. It’s also relatively low in sodium at 56mg, but the overall sodium can change a lot depending on how it’s cooked (like with bagoong, patis, or salty sauces).
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For your 3 meals + 1–2 snacks a day, treat lamb neck as a main protein and keep the portion around 1 palm-sized serving per meal, then fill the rest of the plate with non-starchy vegetables.
- Choose cooking methods like stew, grill, or roast and skim off excess visible fat when possible.
- Balance the meal with fiber-rich sides (e.g., kangkong, pechay, broccoli, or a serving of brown rice/whole grains).
- Go easy on salty seasonings and sauces; taste first and adjust gradually.
- If you’re having lamb neck, consider alternating with leaner proteins (fish, chicken breast, tofu) across the week.
