It also contains healthy fats, but it has higher saturated fat and cholesterol compared with leaner protein sources. The biggest watch-out is sodium (very high), which can add up quickly if you eat it often or in large portions. Since it\u2019s dried, it\u2019s convenient and flavorful, but balancing your intake helps keep your overall diet heart-friendly and manageable.","healthier_tips":["Use a smaller portion: aim for about 1\u20132 tablespoons of dried fish flakes or 1 small piece per meal, then balance with rice + lots of vegetables.","If the dried fish is salty, rinse briefly and soak (if appropriate) before cooking to reduce some salt.","Pair it with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, ampalaya, okra) and add fiber-rich carbs (brown rice or mixed grains) for better fullness.","For snacks, keep it occasional\u2014choose it alongside fruits or yogurt instead of making it a daily snack.","Enjoy it in moderation: you can still include dried fish, just not every day and not in very large servings."]},"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\/scad-round-dried?agent=true"}}}
