They also have small amounts of sodium when boiled (much lower than salted or processed versions). The tiny fat and saturated fat are minimal, so they\u2019re a good choice to add volume and flavor to meals without piling on calories. Since tomatoes contain natural sugars, pairing them with balanced meals (rice\/vegetables\/protein) helps keep your overall intake steady.","healthier_tips":["Use boiled tomato as a side or mix into viands, soup, or ginisang gulay for extra fiber and color.","For a balanced day (3 meals + 1\u20132 snacks), aim to include tomatoes in at least 1\u20132 meals; keep the rest of the plate with protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and carbs (rice or root crops) in appropriate portions.","If you\u2019re watching sodium, avoid adding extra salt; use herbs, garlic, onion, and pepper for taste.","Try adding a bit of vegetable variety (leafy greens or non-starchy veggies) so you get more different nutrients across the day."]},"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\/tomato-boiled?agent=true"}}}
