Greengages, stewed without sugar, weighed with stones

Greengages are a type of plum. These figures describe greengages stewed without added sugar and weighed with their stones. They mainly provide carbohydrate, with some potassium and small amounts of other vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they provide 147 kJ of energy, 8.3g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugars, and 270mg of potassium.

The sugars occur naturally in the fruit, so stewing without added sugar does not make greengages sugar-free. This is worth noting when keeping track of carbohydrate or sugar intake. Potassium helps nerves and muscles work normally. Full nutrient figures, including the amounts of vitamins and minerals, are in the tables below.
