Protein helps keep you full and supports muscle repair after daily activities. At the same time, this cut has moderate fat, including saturated fat, so it\u2019s best to balance it with lighter sides (like vegetables and rice in proper portions). The sodium is relatively low here (51mg per 100g), but the overall sodium can increase depending on how it\u2019s cooked (e.g., with salty sauces or seasoning).","healthier_tips":["For your 3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks schedule, place chicken back in your main meals and pair it with 1\u20132 servings of vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, sayote) and enough carbs (rice, kamote, or bread) based on your hunger and activity.","Choose cooking methods that use less added oil: boil, stew, grill, or roast. If it\u2019s fried, try to limit frequency.","Trim visible skin\/fat when possible, especially if you\u2019re watching saturated fat.","Watch the seasoning: go easy on salty sauces (toyo, patis, seasoning mixes) so sodium stays reasonable.","Portion guide: aim for about 1 palm-sized serving of chicken per meal, then fill the rest of the plate with vegetables and a measured amount of rice."]},"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\/chicken-back?agent=true"}}}
