However, they contain saturated fat (9.36 g per 100 g), and they\u2019re high in calories (603 kcal per 100 g), so portion size matters\u2014especially if you snack 1\u20132 times a day. The good news: cashews have low sodium here (15 mg per 100 g), which is helpful for keeping your overall salt intake in check.","healthier_tips":["For snacks, aim for a small portion: about 1 small handful (roughly 20\u201330 g) instead of eating straight from the bag.","Pair cashews with fruit (like banana, apple, or mango) or plain yogurt to balance your snack and add more fiber and protein.","If you\u2019re having cashews with meals, keep the rest of the meal balanced (half plate veggies, a palm of rice\/bread, and a palm of protein).","Choose roasted, unsalted when possible to keep sodium lower.","Because they\u2019re calorie-dense, spread them across your day (not multiple large servings in one sitting)."]},"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\/cashew-nut-roasted?agent=true"}}}
