The dietary fiber (3.9g) can help you feel fuller and support healthy digestion. It also has natural sugars (9g), so it\u2019s best to pair it with protein and healthy fats in your plate for better balance. It\u2019s very low in sodium (42mg) and has low fat (0.8g), which makes it a practical carb option when you\u2019re building balanced meals.","healthier_tips":["Build your plate: add a serving of lean protein (fish, chicken, tofu, eggs) and vegetables (e.g., kangkong, pechay, broccoli) alongside the sweet potato.","Portion guide: for a snack, try a smaller serving (about 1\/2 cup cooked) and for meals, keep it as your main carb but not the only one on the plate.","Choose cooking methods like boiled or steamed; avoid adding lots of sugar or syrup.","Since it has some sugar naturally, pair it with protein\/fiber-rich veggies to help keep your meals more satisfying.","Fit it into your day: aim for 3 full meals plus 1\u20132 snacks; sweet potato can be a snack or part of lunch\/dinner."]},"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\/sweet-potato-white-boiled?agent=true"}}}
