What is this food?
AI-assisted Purple glutinous rice (undermilled). It’s a sticky, starchy rice variety that’s usually cooked with water and sometimes used for kakanin or desserts.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted Purple glutinous rice provides energy from carbohydrates (76.3 g per 100 g). It also has some fiber (2.8 g) which can help with digestion and fullness. It’s low in fat (2.0 g) and has low saturated fat (0.4 g) and no cholesterol. Key caution: because it’s still mainly starch, large portions can raise your total carbs for the day—especially if paired with sweet toppings or other carb-heavy foods. Sodium is low (2 mg), so it’s not a major sodium source.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted - Use it as your main carb for one meal, then balance with protein (fish, chicken, eggs, tofu) and vegetables (fresh or cooked).
- For snacks, consider smaller portions—rice-based snacks can add up quickly.
- If you’re making kakanin, go easy on added sugar and coconut milk, and add more fruit or nuts for better balance.
- Pair with ulam that has fiber and protein (e.g., grilled fish + veggies) to help you feel fuller.
