✦ Source of fibre ✦ Provides calcium ✦ Source of potassium ✦ Contains some vitamin C

Figs are soft sweet fruit with tiny crunchy edible seeds, eaten fresh or dried. Drying concentrates the sugar, fibre and minerals while reducing vitamin C.

🍳
Preparation note

Fresh whole green figs are much lower in sugar per gram than dried; eat ripe and raw to keep the small amount of vitamin C.

* % Daily Value is the proportion of an adult EU Nutrient Reference Value (NRV) supplied by 100g of this food. NRVs are the labelling standard — the same basis as the “%RI” figures printed on food packaging — so these percentages are directly comparable with a shop label. They are a single adult figure and do not vary by age or sex, which is why they sometimes differ from UK dietary reference values: the NRV for vitamin C is 80mg where the UK RNI is 40mg. When Nutriofia assesses your own intake in the reports and trackers, it uses the age- and sex-specific UK values instead.

Fibre is shown without a percentage. Our fibre values use the UK Englyst NSP method, while the published 30g daily goal is an AOAC figure — the two are measured differently and a single percentage would mislead. How we source and normalise our data →
