What is this food?
AI-assisted
Unripe jackfruit (green jackfruit) is a starchy fruit often used like a vegetable—commonly cooked as a savory dish (boiled, sautéed, or stewed). Per 100g, it has about 58 kcal and provides carbohydrates and fiber.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Unripe jackfruit can be a filling addition to meals because it has carbohydrates for energy and dietary fiber (2.4g per 100g) that supports better digestion and helps you feel full. It’s also low in fat (0.6g total) and very low in sodium (3mg), which is helpful for everyday eating. Since it still contains carbs, it’s best to pair it with protein and vegetables so your plate stays balanced and your energy stays steady.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use it as your vegetable/starch component, not the only main food.
  • Build a balanced plate: add lean protein (fish, chicken, tofu, eggs) and non-starchy veggies (okra, kangkong, pechay, tomatoes).
  • Watch the cooking add-ons: keep oil and coconut milk to a reasonable amount, especially if you’re having it often.
  • For snacks, you can have a smaller portion with a protein (e.g., jackfruit with egg or tofu) to stay satisfied between meals.
  • Since you’ll have 3 meals plus 1–2 snacks daily, treat jackfruit as part of your meal plan—adjust the rice or noodles portion accordingly.
