Where the calories come from

Apple is low in protein: only 2% of its calories come from protein. Most of its calories (95%) come from carbohydrates.

Calculated with 4 kcal per gram of protein and carbohydrate and 9 kcal per gram of fat, so the total can differ slightly from the listed calories.

Crisp and portable, a medium apple has about 95 kcal, nearly all from carbohydrate in the form of natural sugars and fiber. Much of the fiber sits in and just under the skin, so eating it unpeeled makes the most of it. In the popular apple-and-peanut-butter snack, a single tablespoon of the spread adds about as many calories as the apple itself.

Typical portion: A large apple of about 220 g comes to roughly 115 kcal.

Also known as: seb, apples, red apple, fresh apple, medium apple
