Damsons, stewed with sugar

Damsons are a type of plum, described here stewed with water and added sugar. This preparation mainly provides carbohydrate, with 19g per 100g, all of which is sugar. It provides 316 kJ of energy and 240mg of potassium per 100g. Fat is present only in trace amounts, and the protein content is low.

The sugar content includes both sugars naturally present in the fruit and sugar added during cooking. This is relevant when considering total sugar and energy intake, as sweetened stewed fruit differs from fruit cooked without added sugar. Potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function.
