It also has some healthy \u201cbuilding blocks\u201d from fish, but it\u2019s important to note the nutrition balance: it\u2019s high in sodium (7104 mg per 100 g), which can be a concern for blood pressure if eaten often or in large amounts. It also has some saturated fat (0.560 g) and cholesterol (25 mg), so portion size matters. Since it has almost no carbs and no fiber, pair it with vegetables and fiber-rich foods (like brown rice, kamote, or gulay) so your meals are more complete.","healthier_tips":["Keep portions small: use it as a side or flavoring, not the main plate for every meal.","Balance your plate: aim for 1\/2 plate vegetables or salad, 1\/4 rice or starchy food, and 1\/4 protein (like dried fish).","Rinse or soak if possible to reduce the salty taste before cooking.","Pair with potassium-rich foods (e.g., vegetables, fruits) to help balance sodium in your overall diet.","For your daily pattern (3 full meals + 1\u20132 snacks), enjoy dried fish occasionally, and choose fresh fish or other proteins more often for everyday meals."]},"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\/mullet-large-scaled-dried?agent=true"}}}
