They also provide healthy fats, but this canned version can be higher in sodium (1112 mg per 100 g), so it\u2019s best to balance it with low-sodium foods and plenty of water. Since it has very little carbs and no fiber, pair it with vegetables and fiber-rich sides (like gulay, beans, or brown rice) to make your plate more complete.","healthier_tips":["For a typical day (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks), use sardines as your protein for one meal, not as the only repeat protein every time.","Watch the sodium: drain the liquid and rinse briefly if the label allows, then add it to your ulam with fresh ingredients (tomato, onions, calamansi, herbs).","Balance your plate: add at least 1\u20132 servings of gulay and a fiber source (e.g., kangkong, talong, okra, or beans).","Portion guide: start with about 1\/2 cup sardines (or around 50 g) per meal, then adjust based on your hunger and activity.","If you\u2019re also eating salty foods that day (instant noodles, processed meat, salted eggs), reduce the sardines portion to keep your overall sodium in check."]},"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\/sardines-smoked-cnd?agent=true"}}}
