It also has a small amount of fiber (1.4 g), which can help with fullness, but it\u2019s still not a \u201cfiber-rich\u201d food. The fat is low (1.6 g), and cholesterol is zero, but there is some saturated fat (0.58 g). Sodium is very low (5 mg), which is a plus. Since carbs are the main nutrient here, the key is portion and frequency so it fits well with your 3 full meals and 1\u20132 snacks a day.","healthier_tips":["Use a smaller serving (for example, a small handful) and pair it with a protein or fiber-rich food (like milk, yogurt, or a piece of fruit) to stay fuller longer.","Choose it as a snack rather than a main meal most days, and avoid eating large portions late in the day.","If you\u2019re watching sugar intake, go easy on versions that are very sweet; balance it with less-sweet snacks the rest of the day.","For better overall balance, make sure your meals include viand\/protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and vegetables, not just carbs."]},"data_quality":{"source":"DOST-FNRI Philippine Food Composition Tables","source_code":"ph_fct","daily_values_reference":"RENI 2002","notes":["Values are estimates per 100g edible portion.","Actual nutrients may vary by preparation and variety."]},"links":{"self":"https:\/\/api.juanutrisyon.info\/api\/foods\/ampaw-pinipig?agent=true"}}}
