Aubergine, raw

Aubergine is a vegetable; the figures here describe it raw, with the ends trimmed. It consists mainly of water and provides small amounts of carbohydrate and a range of vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 93g of water, 2.2g of carbohydrate, 0.4g of fat and 210mg of potassium.

Potassium helps nerves and muscles function normally and supports fluid balance in the body. Raw aubergine contains little salt or saturated fat. Cooking with oil or adding salty sauces can change its energy, fat and salt content, so these raw values do not describe every prepared dish. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
