What is this food?
Fruit salad (with yacon), usually a mix of fresh fruits prepared as a light snack or side. In 100g, it has about 62 kcal, 14.3g carbs, and around 1g fiber, with natural sugars (12.9g).
Why it matters to health
Fruit salad is a good way to add fiber and vitamins/minerals from fruits to your day. The fiber (1g per 100g) can help you feel fuller and support healthy digestion. It also has very little fat (0.3g) and almost no sodium (17mg), which is helpful for everyday eating. Since it contains natural sugars (12.9g), it’s best to enjoy it in sensible portions—especially if you’re also having rice, bread, or other carb-heavy snacks in the same day.
Healthier tips
- Use it as a snack or a side, not as the main carb of the meal.
- Portion guide: aim for about 1 cup (roughly 150–200g) per serving, then adjust based on your other snacks.
- To balance your day’s meals (3 full meals + 1–2 snacks), pair it with protein if you can—like a small serving of yogurt or a handful of nuts—to help keep you satisfied longer.
- Keep added sugar low: choose fruits and yacon preparations that don’t add lots of syrup.
