What is this food?
Rabbit white meat (lean, light-colored part of rabbit). It’s mainly a protein food with very little fat and no carbs.
Why it matters to health
Rabbit white meat is a good choice for building and repairing body tissues because it’s rich in protein. It also has low total fat (about 2.4 g per 100 g) and low carbs (0 g), which can help keep meals balanced. It has some cholesterol (about 54 mg) and a bit of saturated fat (about 0.7 g), so it’s best to pair it with plenty of vegetables and choose cooking methods that use less added oil. Sodium is relatively low (about 41 mg), but if it’s cooked with salty sauces or seasoning, sodium can go up.
Healthier tips
- For a balanced day with 3 meals + 1–2 snacks, use rabbit meat as your protein main at meals (about 1 palm-sized serving per meal).
- Pair with non-starchy vegetables (e.g., pechay, kangkong, ampalaya, carrots) and a sensible portion of rice or root crops if you need carbs for energy.
- Choose cooking styles like boil, grill, or stew with minimal oil. Go easy on salty sauces and bagoong.
- If you’re eating it more often, rotate with other lean proteins (fish, chicken breast, tofu) to keep your diet varied.
