It also provides sugar (about 10g per 100g) and sodium (about 123mg per 100g), so it\u2019s best to keep portions in mind\u2014especially if you\u2019re watching sugar or salt. It contains saturated fat (about 2.9g per 100g) and cholesterol (about 18mg per 100g), which means frequent large servings may not be ideal for heart health. The good news: you can still enjoy it as part of a balanced day when used in reasonable amounts.","healthier_tips":["Use it as a flavor\/creamer, not as the main drink\u2014try smaller amounts per serving.","If you\u2019re having 3 full meals plus 1\u20132 snacks, fit evaporated milk into one meal\/snack and balance the rest with lean protein and fiber-rich foods (vegetables, fruits, whole grains).","For drinks like coffee or shakes, consider mixing with water or low-fat milk to reduce added sugar and saturated fat.","Choose recipes where it\u2019s paired with fruit, oats, or whole-grain ingredients instead of extra sugar-heavy toppings.","Watch the sodium if the dish already has salty ingredients (e.g., processed meats, salty sauces)."]},"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\/milk-evaporated-filled?agent=true"}}}
