Apricots, canned in syrup, whole contents

These are canned apricots in syrup, with the nutritional figures covering the whole contents, including both the fruit and the syrup. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with 16g per 100g, all of which is sugars. The whole contents also provide 268 kJ of energy, 135µg of vitamin A (retinol equivalent) and 150mg of potassium per 100g.

Vitamin A supports normal vision and the normal function of the immune system. The sugar content includes sugars naturally present in the fruit as well as those in the syrup. For people monitoring sugar or energy intake, it is worth noting that these figures are for the fruit and syrup together, rather than drained apricots.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (10 samples, 9 brands). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: LGC, Nutritional composition of fruit products, 1985-1986; carotene from LGC 'Determination of cis carotenoids in foodstuffs' 1997.
