What is this food?
AI-assisted Boiled squid (100g) is a lean seafood protein. It’s low in carbs and has very little fat, while still giving you filling protein.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Squid helps support muscle and keeps you satisfied, especially when you’re building balanced meals (3 full meals + 1–2 snacks). With about 40mg sodium per 100g, it’s generally a lighter choice than many processed or heavily salted seafood. It’s also naturally low in sugar and fiber, so pairing it with vegetables and a smart carb source (like rice or root crops in proper portions) helps round out your meal.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - For meals, pair boiled squid with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, ampalaya) and a measured carb portion (rice, kamote, or whole grains).
- Keep the flavoring simple: use herbs, calamansi, garlic, and a little soy sauce instead of lots of salty sauces.
- Portion guide: aim for about 1 palm-sized serving of squid per meal, then add vegetables and your chosen carbs.
- If you’re having it as a snack, keep it smaller and add crunchy veggies or a piece of fruit for balance.
