What is this food?
AI-assisted Pomfret (black) fish. It’s a lean protein food (about 93 kcal per 100 g) with no carbs and very little fat.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Pomfret helps support muscle and keeps you full because it’s mainly protein. It also has cholesterol (about 21 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (about 1.17 g per 100 g), so it’s best to balance it with plenty of vegetables and choose cooking methods that don’t add too much oil. Sodium is relatively low (about 98 mg per 100 g), but if you use salty sauces, bagoong, or heavy seasoning, the sodium can go up—so watch the taste when you season.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For meals: pair 1 serving pomfret (roughly 1 palm-sized portion) with 1–2 cups non-starchy vegetables and a sensible serving of rice or other carbs.
- Choose cooking methods like steam, grill, bake, or pan-cook with minimal oil.
- If you’re having it as a snack, keep the portion smaller and add veggies or a fruit on the side.
- Season with herbs, calamansi, garlic, pepper, and a little salt; go easy on salty sauces to keep sodium in check.
- Since it has no fiber, always add vegetables (and fruit if you want) to support digestion and fullness.
