What is this food?
AI-assisted Black-finned mullet (fish). It’s a protein-rich seafood with 0 g carbs and no fiber, about 113 kcal per 100 g.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted This fish supports muscle and satiety because it’s high in protein and has no carbohydrates. It also provides healthy fats in small amounts, but it has some saturated fat (1.18 g per 100 g) and cholesterol (52 mg). Sodium is relatively low (68 mg per 100 g), which is helpful for everyday eating. Since it’s a leaner protein, it can fit well into your 3 meals plus 1–2 snacks schedule—especially when you pair it with vegetables and moderate portions of rice or other carbs.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Choose cooking methods like boiling, steaming, grilling, or baking instead of deep-frying.
- For a balanced plate: 1/2 plate vegetables, 1/4 protein (fish), and 1/4 rice or other carbs.
- If you’re watching cholesterol or saturated fat, keep portions reasonable (e.g., around 1 palm-sized serving) and rotate with other proteins like chicken, tofu, or legumes.
- Boost fiber by adding malunggay, kangkong, or mixed veggies and pairing with brown rice or kamote when available.
- Limit salty sauces (toyo, patis, bagoong) if you’re preparing it as a “sarsa,” since these can raise sodium.
