It also has low total fat (about 0.1 g per 100 g) and some cholesterol (about 27 mg). Sodium is moderate (about 73 mg), so how it\u2019s cooked (salt, soy sauce, seasoning) matters\u2014especially if you eat it often. Since it\u2019s mainly protein, it works best when paired with vegetables and a sensible portion of carbs for steady energy.","healthier_tips":["For meals: pair with 1\u20132 servings of non-starchy vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, okra, mixed veggies) and 1 serving of rice or root crops if needed.","Choose cooking methods like grilled, steamed, or lightly saut\u00e9ed instead of deep-fried.","Go easy on extra salt, soy sauce, and salty sauces; use herbs, calamansi, vinegar, garlic, and spices for flavor.","Portion guide: aim for about 1 palm-sized serving of fish per meal, then add veggies and carbs to complete the plate.","If you\u2019re having it as a snack, keep it smaller and pair with fruit or veggies to stay balanced with your daily 3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks."]},"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\/sting-ray-blue-spotted?agent=true"}}}
