What is this food?
Vegetable spring roll (fresh), with yacon. It’s a roll filled with vegetables and typically served fresh (not deep-fried), so it’s lighter than many fried spring rolls.
Why it matters to health
This food can be a good snack or side because it provides dietary fiber (2.3 g) to support regular digestion and help you feel satisfied. It also has carbohydrates (23.6 g) and sugar (17 g)—the sweetness often comes from yacon. The fat is moderate (4.2 g), but it still has saturated fat (1.6 g) and sodium (594 mg), which can add up if you eat a lot or if the sauce is salty. Everything fits best in moderation, especially with sodium and added sweetness from yacon.
Healthier tips
- For a balanced day (3 full meals + 1–2 snacks), try this as a snack or side:
- Keep the portion to about 1–2 pieces (around 100 g per serving as a guide), then pair with water or unsweetened drinks.
- Go easy on salty sauces (soy-based or chili sauces). If you can, use less sauce or choose a lighter dip.
- Add more vegetables to your meal plan that day (e.g., soup or a side salad) to boost fiber without needing extra sweet fillings.
- If you’re watching sugar, consider having this earlier in the day and balance the rest of your snacks with less sweet options (like fruit or yogurt).
