Redcurrants, raw

Redcurrants are small berries eaten as fruit. The figures here describe raw, whole redcurrants with the stalks removed. They provide carbohydrate, mainly in the form of naturally occurring sugars, along with vitamin C and potassium. Per 100g, they contain 4.4g of carbohydrate, 4.4g of sugars, 40mg of vitamin C and 280mg 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. Raw redcurrants contain only trace amounts of fat and little salt. The sugars listed are naturally present in the whole fruit, rather than added sugars.
