Longans are small tropical fruits. The figures here describe longans canned in syrup, including both the fruit and the syrup, rather than drained fruit alone. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with 17g of carbohydrate, including 16g of sugars, per 100g. They also provide 63mg of vitamin C and 264 kJ of energy per 100g.
Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The syrup contributes to the sugar content, which is worth noting for people monitoring their sugar or energy intake. These values do not describe drained longans. Full nutrient figures for the fruit and syrup together are shown in the tables below.
