It also provides fat, including saturated fat (2.53 g per 100 g), so it\u2019s best to balance it with other foods in your plate. The sodium listed is 59 mg per 100 g, which is relatively moderate, but your total sodium still depends on how it\u2019s seasoned and what you eat with it. Since it has 0 g carbs and 0 g fiber, pair it with vegetables and high-fiber sides for better fullness and digestion.","healthier_tips":["For meals, aim to include lamb as your protein portion, then add 1\u20132 cups of non-starchy vegetables (like kangkong, broccoli, pechay, or mixed greens) and a carb source if it\u2019s your main meal (like rice, kamote, or whole grains).","Watch the portion size: choose a serving that fits your appetite (for example, about the size of your palm for one meal), especially if you eat fatty cuts often.","Go easy on salty sauces\/seasonings; use herbs, garlic, lemon, and spices for flavor.","If you\u2019re having it for lunch or dinner, keep snacks lighter (e.g., fruit or yogurt) so your day stays balanced."]},"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\/lamb-roastback?agent=true"}}}
