Feijoa, flesh only

Feijoa is a fruit, and the figures here describe its flesh only, without the skin. It mainly provides water and carbohydrate, with small amounts of fat and protein. Per 100g, the flesh contains 10g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugars, and provides 199 kJ of energy. It also contains 29mg of vitamin C and 130mg of potassium.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. The sugar in whole fruit is naturally present within its structure, rather than added during preparation. For people monitoring carbohydrate intake, these sugars still contribute to the total carbohydrate content. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
