But this serving has high carbohydrates and high sugar (44.6 g), plus some saturated fat (3.49 g) and sodium (424 mg). Too much of these regularly can make it harder to manage blood sugar and overall calorie intake, especially if portions are big or paired with salty\/sugary viands. The good part: it\u2019s an energy source, and you can balance it with fiber-rich sides to support better fullness and digestion.","healthier_tips":["Portion first: aim for about 1\/2 to 1 cup cooked rice per meal, then adjust based on your activity.","Add fiber: pair with lots of non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, okra) and include a fruit snack if you need sweetness.","Choose lighter pairings: go for grilled\/steamed fish, chicken, or tofu instead of very fatty or salty sauces.","Watch the \u201csweet\u201d factor: since this rice has high sugar, avoid adding extra sweet toppings\/drinks in the same meal.","Balance your day: if you eat rice at lunch, keep dinner rice portions smaller or choose a more veggie-heavy meal.","Season smart: reduce added salt and salty condiments to lower sodium load.","Everything in moderation\u2014you can still enjoy rice as part of a balanced Filipino plate."]},"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\/lohuwa-rice?agent=true"}}}
