What is this food?
AI-assisted
Sardines (fimbriated), fried. This is a fish-based protein, usually cooked in oil, so it’s higher in fat than boiled or steamed sardines.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Sardines are a good protein source and naturally contain healthy fats. In your serving (100 g), it has about 101 kcal and 2.1 g total fat with 0.55 g saturated fat, plus 25 mg cholesterol. It also has 115 mg sodium, which is helpful for taste but is best managed if you’re watching salt. Since it’s fried, the oil can increase total fat—so pairing it with fiber-rich sides (like vegetables or brown rice) helps balance your meal and supports steadier energy across the day.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • For your 3 meals + 1–2 snacks routine, enjoy sardines as a main protein during lunch or dinner, then add plenty of vegetables.
  • Choose less oil cooking when possible (air-fry, shallow-fry with minimal oil, or try steamed/boiled sardines).
  • Pair with high-fiber sides: ensaladang gulay, kangkong, talong, or a serving of brown rice/whole grains.
  • If you’re eating sardines often, vary protein sources (fish, chicken, eggs, tofu) across the week.
  • Watch salty add-ons (soy sauce, patis, extra seasoning) to keep sodium in check.
