What is this food?
Pork liver that’s been fried (usually served as a protein viand).
Why it matters to health
Pork liver is a good source of protein, which helps your body build and repair tissues and supports satiety. In this fried version, the calories can add up (about 197 kcal per 100g) and it also has some total fat (about 5.4g). It has carbohydrates too (about 17.1g) but no fiber and no sugar listed, so it won’t help much with fullness from fiber. Sodium is also present (about 99mg per 100g), so keeping portions and pairing with fiber-rich sides can help balance your day’s meals.
Healthier tips
- Keep your serving size around 1/2 to 1 cup (or about 50–100g) as part of your 3 full meals, then add 1–2 snacks as needed.
- Pair it with vegetables (like ensaladang gulay, kangkong, or mixed veggies) and fiber-rich carbs (like brown rice or kamote in smaller portions) to improve overall balance.
- If you’re cooking at home, consider less oil or try a lighter method (stir-fry with minimal oil, or sauté) to reduce extra fat.
- Watch sodium by choosing less salty seasonings and avoiding heavy salty sauces.
