It contains fat (including saturated fat) and high cholesterol, plus sodium from the preservation process. It also has some carbohydrates and sugar, but fiber is low. For health, it\u2019s best to enjoy it as part of a balanced plate\u2014especially if you\u2019re also eating other salty or fatty foods in the day.","healthier_tips":["Pair it with vegetables (like lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, or kangkong) to add fiber and keep meals filling.","Keep portions reasonable: for example, have 1\/2 to 1 egg depending on your meal size, then balance with rice and veggies.","Because it\u2019s sodium-rich, avoid adding extra salty sauces (like soy sauce) if you\u2019re already eating century egg.","If you\u2019re having it for a snack, choose a lighter pairing (e.g., with plain rice or broth, plus veggies) instead of fried sides.","To fit a typical day (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks), use century egg as an occasional protein choice rather than every day."]},"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\/egg-duck-century?agent=true"}}}
