Cherries, stewed without sugar

Cherries stewed without sugar are cherries cooked with water and no added sugar. They mainly provide water and carbohydrate, with small amounts of protein and fat. Per 100g, they provide 177 kJ of energy, 10g of carbohydrate and 10g of sugars. They also contain 7mg of vitamin C.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Although no sugar is added during preparation, the fruit’s naturally occurring sugars still contribute to its carbohydrate and energy content. This is worth noting when monitoring carbohydrate or sugar intake. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
