Nectarine
What it is
Nectarine is a fruit. This entry uses the USDA raw-nectarine record. Peaches have a separate entry and nutrient profile.
What it does
The reference provides 1.7 g of fiber, 201 mg of potassium, and 10.6 g of carbohydrate per 100 g. It supplies 44 kcal on that same basis. These numbers help compare equal weights of fruit without treating one fruit size as a fixed serving.
Research context and ingredient forms
The table represents the named raw food. The similarity of two fruits does not mean their nutrient values can be substituted without checking their records.
Using this information
Weigh the edible portion after removing the pit. A fruit dessert or canned product should be calculated from its own recipe or label, including added ingredients. For a smaller raw portion, scale each value to the weight actually eaten.
