What is this food?
Beef round, broiled (a lean cut of beef cooked by broiling). It’s mainly a protein food with little to no carbohydrates.
Why it matters to health
This food helps support muscle repair and keeps you full, especially when you include it in your 3 meals and 1–2 snacks per day. For health balance: it has moderate total fat (5.1 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (1.94 g), plus cholesterol (51 mg). It’s also low in carbs and fiber (0 g), so pairing it with vegetables and whole grains helps round out your meal. Sodium is relatively low here (28 mg), which is good for everyday eating.
Healthier tips
- Use a portion of about 60–90 g cooked per meal, then add 1–2 cups non-starchy vegetables (e.g., pechay, kangkong, broccoli) to boost fiber and micronutrients.
- Pair with 1 serving of rice or other carbs (e.g., 1/2–1 cup cooked rice) depending on your activity level.
- Choose lighter sauces: go easy on salty marinades and gravies; use herbs, calamansi, vinegar, garlic, and pepper for flavor.
- If you’re having beef at one meal, consider alternating with fish, chicken, eggs, or tofu in other meals during the day.
