Taro leaves are the edible leaves of the taro plant, used as a leafy vegetable after cooking. The data here describe the leaves in their raw form. Per 100g, they provide 4.4g of protein, 52mg of vitamin C, 1160µg of vitamin A expressed as retinol equivalent, and 650mg of potassium.
Vitamin A supports normal vision and immune function, while vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Raw taro leaves contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and throat, so they should not be eaten raw and require thorough cooking. Cooking can change their nutrient content. Full nutritional figures for the raw leaves are in the tables below.
