Grenadillas, flesh and seeds

Grenadillas are a type of passion fruit. The values here describe the edible flesh and seeds, rather than the skin. They provide carbohydrate, mainly in the form of sugars, along with vitamin C and potassium. Per 100g, they contain 7.5g of carbohydrate, 7.5g of sugars, 20mg of vitamin C and 350mg of potassium.

Vitamin C supports normal skin and connective tissue and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. The sugars in the flesh and seeds are naturally occurring, and the fruit contains little fat or salt. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
