Overview
Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled belongs to the meat, poultry & fish group in this encyclopedia. At the well-controlled level it carries a "Lower impact" rating, though — as with most foods — the sensible portion shrinks as blood sugar control loosens. The calories and macronutrients below come from a nutrition database. The ratings and portion sizes are our own estimate, derived from this item's carbohydrate content, fibre, food type and physical form — whether it is eaten or drunk — together with established diabetes nutrition principles. They were not taken from the source medical reference, and no glucose response has been measured for this food. Treat them as a starting point for planning, and always confirm the right amount for you with a nutrition label or your diabetes care team.
Calories & Nutrition
Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled provides about 202 calories per 100 g. It contains roughly 0.8 g of carbohydrate per 100 g, which is the figure that matters most for blood sugar planning.
Carbohydrates & Blood Sugar
After a meal, carbohydrate is broken down to glucose and absorbed into the blood; insulin then helps move it into cells. Foods that release glucose slowly produce a smaller, steadier rise.
Because Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled contains almost no carbohydrate, glucose after a meal built around it usually reflects the starchy sides or sauces served with it rather than the meat itself.
Counting carbs is easier when you have the right tool.
Suggested Serving Size
The table below shows the estimated impact and a sensible portion of Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled at each of the three diabetes control levels used throughout this encyclopedia. These are estimates derived from the food's carbohydrate content, fibre, category and physical form, together with established diabetes nutrition principles — not measurements of anyone's glucose response. Treat them as a starting point for planning rather than a fixed rule.
Foods are rated across three diabetes control categories — find the row that matches your HbA1c or fasting blood sugar:
| Control level | Safety rating | Suggested portion |
|---|---|---|
| Well-controlled HbA1c ≤ 6.5% (or fasting glucose 110–140 mg/dL) | Lower impact | about 85 g |
| Moderately controlled HbA1c 6.6–8.5% (or fasting glucose 141–180 mg/dL) | Lower impact | about 85 g |
| Poorly controlled HbA1c > 8.5% (or fasting glucose > 180 mg/dL) | Lower impact | about 85 g |

How you use the portions below depends on your type of diabetes:
If you have type 1 diabetes, you are the one dosing insulin — so count the carbohydrates. Use the carbohydrate figure and the portion shown to match your insulin to the meal, and confirm doses with your care team.
If you have type 2 diabetes, be careful with the amount and follow the safe portion for your control level. The safe quantity shrinks as blood-sugar control loosens — use the row that matches your HbA1c or fasting sugar.
You know the portion. Now understand how it fits into your insulin decision.
Safety for Diabetics
Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled is manageable for most people with diabetes at the portions shown above, but caution generally increases as control worsens — notice how the safety rating and portion size change from the well-controlled row to the poorly-controlled row in the table.
Blood Sugar & Insulin Considerations
Every food that raises blood sugar also has some bearing on insulin needs, whether that insulin comes from your own pancreas or an injection. Rather than memorising numbers for every food, many people find it easier to lean on a tool at the moment of eating. This is exactly the gap Flona is built for: it helps estimate the carbohydrate in a portion like the one above and supports your insulin decision — basal, rapid-acting, mixed or meal-based — without replacing the judgement of your physician or diabetes care team.

Tips
- Stick close to the portion shown for your control level (about 85 g at well-controlled) rather than estimating by eye.
- Keep an eye on total portion across the day — even gentler foods add up if eaten in large amounts.
- Check your blood sugar after trying a new portion for the first time, so you learn your own response rather than relying on averages.
- Reassess portions with your care team if your HbA1c or control level changes.
- Track how Pork, fresh, blade, (chops), boneless, separable lean and fat, cooked, broiled affects you over a few occasions rather than judging from a single reading.
