Pomegranate, flesh and pips, weighed with skin

Pomegranate is a fruit with edible flesh and pips enclosed by a skin. This entry describes the flesh and pips, but the figures are based on the fruit weighed with its skin. Per 100g on this basis, it provides 7.7g carbohydrate, all of which is sugar, 0.9g protein, 0.1g fat and 8mg vitamin C.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The carbohydrate content is relevant for people monitoring their sugar or carbohydrate intake. Because the weighing basis includes the skin, these values should not be read as applying to the same weight of edible flesh and pips alone. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
