The dish also has some carbohydrates and sugar from the sauce, plus about 226 mg sodium per 100 g\u2014so it\u2019s best to watch portions, especially if you\u2019re eating salty viands often in the day. The 13.1 g total fat contributes to satiety, but too much fat in one sitting can make it easier to exceed your daily calorie needs. Fiber is relatively low (0.6 g), so pairing it with vegetables or adding a side of greens helps balance your meal.","healthier_tips":["Keep it as a main viand and pair with 1\u20132 servings of non-starchy vegetables (e.g., pechay, kangkong, lettuce, cucumber) to improve fiber and volume.","Choose a smaller serving of the sauce, since it adds more sugar and sodium.","If you\u2019re having this at lunch or dinner, keep your snacks lighter (e.g., fruit or yogurt) so your day stays balanced.","For a healthier plate: aim for 1\/2 plate vegetables, 1\/4 protein (meat balls + quail egg), and 1\/4 carbs (rice or bread), depending on your needs."]},"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\/meat-ball-quail-egg-sw-sr-sce-cnd?agent=true"}}}
