Sago, raw

Sago is a starch obtained from the stems of certain palm trees and used in foods such as puddings. These figures describe raw sago before cooking. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with 94g per 100g and an energy content of 1515 kJ. It contains little fat or protein, at 0.2g of each per 100g.

Carbohydrate is a source of energy for the body. Although raw sago contains only trace amounts of sugars, its starch still contributes to total carbohydrate intake, which is relevant for people monitoring this. Cooking with water changes the nutrient amounts per weight, while adding milk or sugar changes the nutritional content of the finished dish. Full nutrient figures for raw sago are in the tables below.
