Pomelo, flesh only, weighed with peel and pips

Pomelo is a citrus fruit, and this entry describes its flesh only, with the fruit weighed including peel and pips. The figures therefore refer to the flesh obtained from 100g of whole fruit, rather than 100g of edible flesh. On this basis, it provides 4.1g of carbohydrate, all of which is sugars, alongside 27mg of vitamin C and 0.1g of fat.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation, which is important for skin, cartilage and other tissues, and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. The sugars in pomelo flesh occur naturally within the fruit. The whole-fruit weighing basis is worth noting when comparing these values with other fruit entries.
