In 100 g, it has about 188 kcal and 5.6 g fat, plus 8.5 g carbohydrates (with 0 g sugar). It also has 1163 mg sodium, so it\u2019s best to watch how salty the dish becomes (especially if you use bagoong, patis, or lots of seasoning). Since it has some fat and carbs, pairing it with vegetables and using reasonable portions helps keep your meals balanced.","healthier_tips":["For your 3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks a day: treat crab as a main protein at lunch or dinner, and keep the rest of the plate mostly vegetables.","Because sodium can be high, choose lighter seasoning: use less salty sauces, and add flavor with garlic, onion, ginger, calamansi, and herbs.","Balance the plate: add 1\u20132 cups non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, ampalaya leaves) and a sensible serving of rice if needed.","Watch portion size: enjoy crab, but keep it within a reasonable serving so you don\u2019t overdo calories and sodium."]},"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\/crab-mudmangrove-fat?agent=true"}}}
