AI-assisted Fish
Some descriptions on this page are generated with AI assistance to make nutrition information easier to understand. Nutritional data comes from trusted sources like DOST-FNRI and USDA.
What is this food?
AI-assisted Smoked scad (big-eye scad) — a fish that’s been cured/smoked for flavor and shelf life. It’s mainly a protein food.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted This fish gives you protein for building and repairing body tissues, which helps support your daily meals and snacks. It also has cholesterol (57 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (1.72 g) plus sodium (1233 mg per 100 g). Because it’s smoked, the sodium can be high, so it’s best to enjoy it in reasonable portions and not every day. When paired with rice in proper portions and plenty of vegetables, it can fit well in a balanced Filipino eating pattern.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Keep portions around 1 palm-sized serving (about 60–100 g) per meal, especially if you eat it with rice.
- Balance the plate: aim for 1/2 plate vegetables (like kangkong, talong, pechay) and 1/4 rice, then add the fish.
- For snacks, choose lighter sides (e.g., fruit or unsalted nuts) instead of another salty food.
- To reduce sodium, you can rinse the smoked fish quickly and drain well before cooking.
- Try not to make smoked fish the only protein—alternate with fresh fish, eggs, tofu, or chicken.
