Mulberry
What it is
Mulberry is a small fruit eaten fresh or used in dried fruit products and preserves. The reference describes raw mulberries.
What it does
For the named reference food, USDA lists 43 kcal, 9.8 g carbohydrate and 1.7 g fiber per 100 g edible portion. The table gives additional nutrients for that same food form. These figures describe composition, not an effect on a disease or a recommended serving.
Research context and ingredient forms
Reference food: Mulberries, raw. These are historical SR Legacy data from the April 2018 release, published in FoodData Central in 2019. A different variety, preparation, water content, or commercial recipe can change the result. For a matching food, a portion estimate scales each value by edible portion grams divided by 100.
Using this information
Drying changes the amount of water per gram. Do not use the fresh-fruit table to estimate an equal weight of dried mulberries or a concentrated extract.
