What is this food?
AI-assisted
Boiled snap bean pods (white), a type of non-starchy vegetable. For every 100g, it’s very low in calories (about 14 kcal) and provides small amounts of carbs, with dietary fiber (1.1g) and some natural sugar (0.5g).
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Snap beans are helpful for everyday meals because they add fiber that supports easier digestion and helps you feel full, which can make it easier to balance your portions in a day (3 meals plus 1–2 snacks). They’re also low in fat (0.1g) and very low in sodium (0mg), so they’re a good choice when you’re building a lighter, more balanced plate. The carbs are not the main feature here—fiber is—so they fit well with rice and other main foods.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
• Add snap beans to your viand or mix them with other gulay to make your plate more “gulay-forward.”
  • Portion idea: aim for about 1/2 to 1 cup cooked as part of your meal (especially if you’ll also eat rice).
  • Keep it simple: boil, steam, or lightly sauté with minimal oil.
  • If you’re using bagoong, patis, or salty sauces, go easy—choose flavor with less added salt.
  • Pair with a protein (fish, chicken, tofu) and a sensible rice portion for a complete meal.
