They also give carbohydrates with some sugar (about 4.9 g) and relatively low fat (about 1.1 g, with 0.2 g saturated). Since this version is in brine, it can be higher in sodium (about 449 mg), so it\u2019s best to balance it with lower-sodium foods and not rely on it as a daily \u201cmain\u201d snack. With moderation, peas can fit well into a Filipino eating pattern of 3 full meals plus 1\u20132 snacks a day.","healthier_tips":["Rinse first: drain and rinse peas in brine to reduce sodium.","Portion it: use about 1\/2 to 1 cup per meal as a side or add-on, especially if you\u2019re also eating salty viands.","Pair smart: combine with lean protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and add non-starchy veggies for better balance.","Watch the \u201cextras\u201d: if it\u2019s mixed into salads or pasta, go easy on mayo, cheese, and salty sauces.","Spread it out: enjoy it a few times a week as part of your meals and snacks, not 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\/green-pea-in-brine-cnd?agent=true"}}}
