About Strawberries
Strawberries are a bright, juicy fruit enjoyed fresh, hulled into salads, or cooked down into jams and sauces. They are notably low in calories at just 32 kcal per 100 g, with 7.68 g of carbohydrate, 2 g of fibre, and only trace fat (0.3 g) and protein (0.67 g).
Their headline nutrient is vitamin C, at 58.8 mg per 100 g, a relatively high figure among common fruits, alongside 153 mg of potassium and 16 mg of calcium; sodium is negligible at 1 mg. Because vitamin C is sensitive to heat and prolonged storage, eating strawberries fresh and reasonably soon after purchase makes the most of this nutrient. Their natural sweetness and low calorie count also make them a popular way to add flavour to breakfasts and desserts without much added sugar.
