Prunes, canned in juice, whole contents

Prunes are dried plums. These figures describe prunes canned in juice, including both the fruit and juice, with the stones removed. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with 20g per 100g, all of which is sugar. The whole contents provide 335 kJ of energy and 340mg of potassium per 100g, with small amounts of fat and protein.

Carbohydrate provides energy, while potassium supports normal muscle and nerve function. The sugar and energy content are relevant for people monitoring their intake. Because these figures include the canning juice, they do not describe drained prunes alone. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
