What is this food?
AI-assisted Mullet (large-scaled) fish—an oily-leaning fish that’s mainly valued for its protein. In a 100g serving, it provides about 89 kcal and around 1g fat, with zero carbs and fiber.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Mullet helps support your daily protein needs for growth, repair, and keeping you full between meals. It has very low carbohydrates (good for balanced meals) and some fat for energy, but it also has a bit of saturated fat (about 0.29g per 100g). It’s also relatively low in sodium (about 61mg per 100g), which is helpful if you’re mindful of salt—especially when the fish is cooked with salty sauces or bagoong.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Pair it with 1–2 cups of non-starchy vegetables (like kangkong, pechay, ampalaya, or talong) and a reasonable serving of rice or root crops.
- Choose cooking methods like grilled, steamed, or sinigang rather than deep-fried to keep the fat lower.
- If using salty condiments (toyo, patis, bagoong), use a smaller amount and add more sourness (calamansi, vinegar) or herbs for flavor.
- For your daily pattern, include fish as part of your 3 full meals and keep snacks lighter (e.g., fruit, yogurt, or nuts in small portions).
