% DV refers to how much a single serving of an individually packaged food or supplement contributes nutritionally to your daily diet, based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Generally, having 5% DV or less of a nutrient per serving is considered low, and 20% DV or more of a nutrient per serving is considered high.
Fat Composition
The suggested total fat consumption should be limited to 30% of total energy intake or less. The type of fat consumed should primarily be unsaturated fatty acids, with no more than 10% of total energy intake coming from saturated fatty acids (about 200 calories on a 2000-calorie diet) and no more than 1% of total energy intake coming from trans-fatty acids.

FAQ
Seasoned sushi rice is about 238.25 kcal with 53.55 g carbs, 9.43 g added sugar, and 585.02 mg sodium, while plain steamed white rice is about 199 kcal with 44.72 g carbs and only 6.6 mg sodium. The seasoning may include vinegar, which can modestly reduce the glycemic impact of rice, but the added sugar and much higher sodium usually make it less heart friendly overall.
Not if sodium is of concern. Per serving, seasoned sushi rice has about 585.02 mg sodium, which is far higher than plain rice at 6.6 mg sodium, so it can add up fast across a day. If someone has heart disease, hypertension, or kidney issues, a dietitian or clinician may help set a safer portion.
Yes, but it is mostly carbs. Per serving it has about 53.55 g carbs, 3.78 g protein, 1.26 g fiber, and 238.25 kcal, plus 9.43 g added sugar.
Yes, in moderation, since it is high in calories.
📚 Health Research & Evidence About This Food
Seasoned sushi rice, primarily composed of white rice, contributes to dietary glycemic load, which is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in women, according to SpringerLink. While cooling cooked white rice, a common practice for sushi, can increase its resistant starch and modify its glycemic response, the added sugar in seasoning may moderate these benefits.

2. Dietary Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load and Incidence of Type 2 Diabetes in Japanese Men and Women: The Japan Public Health Center-Based Prospective Study
Source: SpringerLink
Summary: Sushi rice, as a significant component of high-carbohydrate Japanese diets, contributes to the overall dietary glycemic index and glycemic load, which this population-based cohort study associates with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, particularly among women.

4. Effect of Cooling of Cooked White Rice on Resistant Starch Content and Glycemic Response.
Source: PubMed
Summary: Sushi rice, as a form of cooked white rice, can undergo starch retrogradation upon cooling, which is known to increase its resistant starch content and consequently affect its glycemic response.
