It also has some fat (26.5 g, with 6.8 g saturated fat) and sodium (560 mg). For health, the main things to watch are added sugar (too much can make it easier to overeat calories) and saturated fat and sodium (these can be less ideal in large amounts). The good part: it has a small amount of fiber (2.4 g), which can help with fullness when paired with balanced meals.","healthier_tips":["Keep it as an occasional snack, not a daily sweet\u2014especially if you already have rice, bread, or other carb-heavy foods in your day.","Use a smaller serving (for example, a few tablespoons or a small portion) and pair it with something that adds protein and fiber, like plain milk\/yogurt, nuts, or fruit.","If you\u2019re having gurgurya after a full meal, consider making it a snack-sized portion so it won\u2019t add too much sugar and calories.","Balance the rest of the day: choose more vegetables and lean protein for your main meals (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks).","Everything is okay in moderation; the goal is to enjoy it without crowding out nutrient-rich foods."]},"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\/gurgurya?agent=true"}}}
