It also provides cholesterol (54 mg per 100 g) and saturated fat (4.25 g per 100 g), so it\u2019s best to pair it with plenty of vegetables and choose reasonable portions. The sodium here is relatively low (43 mg per 100 g), but the sodium can increase a lot depending on how it\u2019s cooked (like in tapa, bistek, or stews with added seasoning).","healthier_tips":["For your daily pattern (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks), use beef chuck as your protein at meals, and keep the plate balanced with 1\/2 plate vegetables and 1\/4 plate rice or starchy carbs.","Choose cooking methods that use less added fat: stew, grill, or braise with minimal oil.","If the dish is salty (marinated or with sauce), ask for less sauce or use lighter seasoning.","To manage saturated fat, consider mixing beef with leaner options or using smaller servings more often."]},"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\/beef-chuck?agent=true"}}}
