They\u2019re also naturally higher in cholesterol, but what matters most for daily health is your overall pattern of fats and food choices. A key caution here is sodium: smoked sardines can be salty (about 1443 mg per 100 g), so too much can affect blood pressure over time. The good part: when you include sardines in the right portion and frequency, you get a filling, nutrient-dense protein for your meals.","healthier_tips":["For your 3 full meals + 1\u20132 snacks a day, use sardines as your protein portion: aim for about 1\/2 to 1 small can (or roughly 50\u2013100 g) per meal, depending on your other ulam.","If it\u2019s very salty, rinse briefly under water or drain well before cooking\/eating.","Pair with fiber-rich sides like vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, talong) and a reasonable serving of rice or other carbs.","Balance the day: if you had sardines for lunch, choose a lower-sodium protein for dinner (like fresh fish, eggs, or tofu).","Watch the \u201cextras\u201d (soy sauce, bagoong, salty seasonings) because they can add more sodium."]},"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\/sardine-fimbriated-smoked?agent=true"}}}
