However, it\u2019s also higher in fat (about 19.7g per 100g) and sodium (about 513mg per 100g), so it\u2019s best to balance it with fiber-rich sides (like vegetables) and watch your portion\u2014especially if you\u2019re eating it regularly. Carbs are present too (about 15.7g), but the fiber is low (about 0.3g), so adding vegetables or a whole-grain side can improve your overall meal balance.","healthier_tips":["Keep your portion to about 1 palm-sized serving of pork per meal, then fill the rest of your plate with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., pechay, kangkong, carrots, broccoli) and a reasonable amount of rice.","Since sodium is relatively high, try to ask for less sauce or use the sauce as a topping instead of soaking the whole serving.","Add fiber: pair with ensalada, ginisang gulay, or fresh tomatoes\/onions to support better fullness and digestion.","If you\u2019re having this for lunch or dinner, keep snacks lighter (e.g., fruit or yogurt) so your day\u2019s total salt and fat stay balanced."]},"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\/pork-leg-w-mushroom-sce-cnd?agent=true"}}}
