What is this food?
This is boiled thin wheat noodles (a starchy carb food). In a 100 g serving, it provides about 100 kcal and mostly carbohydrates (23.8 g), with a small amount of fiber (1.2 g).
Why it matters to health
Noodles are a good energy source for your daily meals and snacks, especially if you need steady fuel for work or school. The fiber (1.2 g) and a little sugar (1.4 g) can help with fullness, but the sodium is relatively high (395 mg per 100 g), especially if the noodles are seasoned with broth or sauce. Keeping portions balanced helps you enjoy noodles while supporting heart health and overall diet balance—pair them with vegetables and protein to make the meal more filling and nutritionally complete.
Healthier tips
- Use a smaller portion of noodles (e.g., about 1 cup cooked) and add more non-starchy veggies (like cabbage, carrots, pechay) to increase volume without too much extra calories.
- Pair with protein: chicken, tofu, eggs, fish, or lean pork to balance the meal.
- Go easy on salty soup base/sauce; taste first and add seasoning gradually.
- If you eat noodles as a main meal, balance the rest of the day with lighter snacks (fruit, yogurt, or nuts in small portions) and include water.
