Globe artichoke is a vegetable eaten as an immature flower head. The figures here describe it raw. It consists mainly of water and provides small amounts of carbohydrate and protein, along with vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 2.7g of carbohydrate, 2.8g of protein, 68µg of folate and 360mg of potassium.
Folate supports normal blood cell formation, while potassium helps nerves and muscles function normally. Raw globe artichoke contains little fat, saturated fat or salt. Cooking and serving it with added salt, butter or sauces can change its nutritional content, so these raw figures may not reflect a prepared dish.
