What is this food?
AI-assisted Suckling pork intestine (large), a type of pork organ meat. It’s mainly used as a protein-rich viand, often cooked with spices and broth.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted This food can help meet your daily protein needs for muscle repair and satiety. For the nutrients here: it has moderate total fat (2.5 g per 100 g) but also higher saturated fat (1.14 g per 100 g), so it’s best to keep portions reasonable. It has very little fiber (0 g), so pairing it with vegetables and other fiber-rich foods helps your meals feel more complete and supports better digestion. Sodium is low to moderate (42 mg per 100 g), but the overall sodium can increase depending on the sauce, seasoning, or broth used.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Keep it as a protein add-on in your meal, not the whole plate—aim for about 1/4 to 1/3 of the plate for meat/organ dishes.
- Pair with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., pechay, kangkong, repolyo) and/or a fiber source (e.g., beans, gulay, or brown rice/half rice).
- Choose cooking methods like stewing, grilling, or simmering instead of heavy frying.
- Watch the sauce: if it’s salty or oily, use a smaller amount and add more vegetables to stretch the serving.
- Since you’ll have 3 full meals plus 1–2 snacks, place this viand in a main meal and keep snacks lighter (e.g., fruit or yogurt) that day.
