Papaya, flesh only, raw

Papaya is a fruit, and these figures describe its raw, ripe flesh only, without the skin or seeds. It mainly provides carbohydrate, along with vitamin C and some fibre. Per 100g, it contains 9.5g carbohydrate, including 9.5g sugars, 1.8g fibre and 68mg vitamin C. It contains little fat or protein.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Fibre helps support normal bowel function. The sugars in raw papaya occur naturally within the fruit rather than being added. Its carbohydrate content is relevant for people monitoring carbohydrate intake.
