What is this food?
AI-assisted Fried and seasoned lima beans (about 100 g). They’re legumes that act like a protein food, but when fried they also become higher in fat.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Lima beans provide plant-based protein to help keep you full and support muscle needs, and they also bring carbohydrates for energy. Since this version is fried, it has more total fat (26 g per 100 g) and higher calories (500 kcal), so it’s best to enjoy it in the right portion—especially if you already have rice or other starchy foods in the same meal. Pairing it with vegetables and choosing smaller servings can help you get the benefits of beans without making the meal too heavy.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Keep the serving size moderate: aim for about 1/2 to 1 cup cooked beans per meal (adjust based on your rice and other ulam).
- Balance your plate: add non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, talong, pechay) and a lighter side like salad or ginisang gulay.
- If you can, choose less oil methods: air-fried, shallow-fried, or sautéed with minimal oil.
- Watch the combo: if you’re having rice, consider slightly smaller rice portions and let the beans be the main protein.
- For snacks, use beans as a small side or mix into a bowl with veggies instead of eating a large fried portion.
