Notes

As always, nutrition is one of the most manipulated and bastardized sciences in existence for people out to make a quick buck. 
Our mission at healthythairecipes.com was born from my trying to rehab my wife's native Thai recipes to be as healthy as possible for both of us.  We like the whole foods, avoid processed ingredients approach.  What is healthy for us may not be healthy for you though as your situation is fact dependent.  I like to say, when in doubt, check it out with a doctor or dietitian, if you have concerns.  When it comes to food safety, When in doubt, throw it out, if you think an ingredient is questionable.  
Let us know how we can make our healthy Thai recipes healthier in the comments section below. Nutrition calculations are an estimate.
