However, a typical serving can also be high in sodium (about 1840 mg) and fat (about 40 g), with saturated fat around 6.2 g. High sodium can be a concern for blood pressure if eaten often, while too much saturated fat can affect heart health over time. The good part: with the right mix of veggies and lean protein, pancit can fit into a balanced day\u2014especially when you manage portion size and frequency.","healthier_tips":["Watch the portion: Aim for about 1 bowl (or less) per meal, especially if you already had rice or another carb at the same time.","Boost the veggies: Add more cabbage, carrots, pechay, and other non-starchy veggies to increase fiber and volume without needing extra noodles.","Choose leaner protein: Use chicken breast, shrimp, or tofu more often; go lighter on fatty pork.","Go easy on sauce: Use less soy sauce\/seasoning, or ask for \u201cless sauce\u201d when ordering.","Balance your day: If pancit is your main meal, keep your snacks lighter (e.g., fruit, yogurt, or nuts in small portions) so your total carbs and salt don\u2019t pile up."]},"data_quality":{"source":"Community recipe estimate","source_code":"community_recipe","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\/pancit-canton?agent=true"}}}
