Dates, dried, flesh and skin

Dates are a fruit, and these figures describe dried dates with their flesh and skin, including whole and chopped products. They do not include partially rehydrated dates or products with added glucose syrup. Dried dates mainly provide carbohydrate, with 59g per 100g, including 58g of sugars. They also provide 7.5g of fibre and 727µg of potassium per 100g.

Fibre helps support normal bowel function, while potassium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Drying removes water from fruit, concentrating its sugars, so the sugar content is worth noting for people monitoring their carbohydrate or sugar intake, even when no syrup has been added. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (10 samples, 9 products, including whole and chopped, not including partially rehydrated dates. No added glucose syrup). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
