Lotus tubers, raw

Lotus tubers are the edible underground stems of the lotus plant, eaten as a vegetable. The figures here describe them raw. They mainly provide carbohydrate, alongside vitamin C and potassium. Per 100g, raw lotus tubers contain 11g of carbohydrate, 2.1g of protein, 35mg of vitamin C and 400mg of potassium.

Carbohydrate provides energy for the body. Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods, while potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. Raw lotus tubers contain little fat or salt, although preparation and added ingredients can change these amounts. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
