Aim for a smaller slice\/serving, especially if you already had rice or noodles at the last meal.","Pair it: Add a protein and fiber side like boiled egg, tuna, chicken, tofu, or a serving of vegetables (e.g., lettuce, cucumber) to balance your plate.","Watch added sugar: If it\u2019s sweet-tasting, consider having it with plain water or unsweetened drinks instead of sweetened coffee\/tea.","Balance fats: If you spread butter\/cheese, use a lighter amount\u2014this loaf already has some saturated fat.","Snack timing: For a typical day (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks), keep this to one snack and choose a lower-sugar snack the other time (like fruit or yogurt)."]},"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\/bread-mung-bean-loaf?agent=true"}}}
