What is this food?
AI-assisted Pork intestine (small), a type of organ meat. It’s mainly a protein food with very little carbs and fiber.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted With about 2.3 g fat per 100 g and 71 kcal, pork intestine can fit into meals as a protein add-on. It has 0 g carbs and 0 g fiber, so it won’t help you feel full from fiber—pair it with vegetables and/or legumes for better balance. It also has 107 mg sodium per 100 g, so it’s best to watch how often and how salty the dish is (especially if it’s cooked with salty sauces).
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Keep portions small and treat it as a protein side, not the whole meal.
- Pair with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, okra) and add fiber from brown rice, kamote, or beans if you’re having rice.
- Choose cooking methods like stewing or grilling with less added salt; go easy on salty condiments.
- For your daily pattern (3 meals + 1–2 snacks), include this in one meal, and balance the other meals with fish, eggs, chicken, tofu, or legumes.
