Prunes, flesh and skin, stewed without sugar, weighed with stones

Prunes are dried plums. These figures describe the flesh and skin of prunes stewed without added sugar, with the stones included in the weight. Per 100g, they provide 18g of carbohydrate, all recorded as sugars, 1.3g of protein, 0.2g of fat and 400mg of potassium.

Carbohydrate supplies energy, while potassium supports normal muscle and nerve function. Although no sugar is added during stewing, prunes contain naturally occurring sugars, which remain relevant for people monitoring their sugar or carbohydrate intake. The inclusion of stones in the recorded weight is worth noting when comparing these values with those for stoned fruit. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
