It also provides healthy fats, but it still has some saturated fat (0.38g per 100g). It contains cholesterol (31mg) and sodium (98mg), so it\u2019s best to watch how it\u2019s cooked\u2014especially if it\u2019s salted, dried, or heavily seasoned. Since it has no carbs and no fiber, pair it with vegetables and a smart carb portion for a balanced meal.","healthier_tips":["For meals: use catfish as your main protein, then add 1\u20132 cups non-starchy vegetables (like kangkong, talong, pechay, okra).","Choose cooking methods like grilling, steaming, or sinigang with less added salt.","If you\u2019re making it \u201cdaing\u201d or very salty, balance it with lower-salt sides and drink water.","Portion guide: aim for about 1 palm-sized serving of fish per meal, then adjust rice based on your activity.","For snacks (if needed): pair fish with veggies or have it as part of a light meal rather than a salty snack."]},"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\/catfish-saltwater?agent=true"}}}
