The low carbohydrate content helps keep your plate balanced for your 3 full meals and 1\u20132 snacks a day. It also has some saturated fat (1.32g per 100g), so pairing it with plenty of vegetables and using reasonable portions helps keep your overall fat intake in check. Sodium is relatively low (42mg per 100g), which makes it easier to manage salt when you season lightly.","healthier_tips":["Steam or boil it, then season with calamansi, herbs, garlic, and onion instead of salty sauces.","Build your plate: \u00bd vegetables (fresh or lightly cooked), \u00bc rice or root crops, and \u00bc fish.","For snacks, keep it simple: pair fish meals with water or unsweetened drinks rather than sugary drinks.","If you\u2019re watching saturated fat, avoid adding lots of oil or creamy sauces; use a small amount of healthy oil only if needed."]},"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\/cavalla-banded-steamed?agent=true"}}}
