How Many Calories in Raisins?
1 pumn mic (40g) = 120 kcal
Nutritional Values per 100g
Standard Serving
1 pumn mic (40g) contains 120 calories.
Best time: A small pre-workout snack or added to oats/yogurt, in a measured portion
Benefits
- ✓Concentrated source of quick energy from natural sugar - useful pre-workout for a fast boost
- ✓Contains notable amounts of iron and potassium for a dried fruit
- ✓Polyphenol antioxidants similar to those in grapes, concentrated through drying
- ✓Fiber (3.7g/100g) that contributes to fullness, despite the high calorie density
- ✓A practical alternative to processed sweets when a sugar craving hits
Considerations
- !Very calorie-dense and concentrated in sugar (59g/100g) - about 4 times more caloric than fresh grapes at the same volume
- !Easy to overeat straight from a bag - weigh the portion (one small handful, 40g) instead of eating directly from the package
- !Many commercial varieties contain added oil (for shine) - check the label if you track macros strictly
FitAzi Tip
FitAzi recommends raisins as a topping for oats or yogurt, in a small amount (10-15g), for natural sweetness without added sugar. If you use them pre-workout for quick energy, a small handful (40g) provides about 120 calories and fast-absorbing carbs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Stafidele au 299 kcal/100g, cu 3,1g proteine, 79g carbohidrați (din care 59g zahăr), 0,5g grăsimi și 3,7g fibre. Un pumn mic (40g) are aproximativ 120 kcal - de peste 4 ori mai multe calorii decât aceeași cantitate de struguri proaspeți, din cauza eliminării apei prin uscare.
În general da, pentru că oferă fibre, fier și antioxidanți alături de zahărul natural, spre deosebire de dulciurile procesate, care oferă aproape exclusiv zahăr rafinat fără alți nutrienți. Totuși, densitatea calorică și conținutul ridicat de zahăr (59g/100g) înseamnă că porția contează la fel de mult ca la orice dulce - un pumn mic (40g), nu o mână plină, este porția recomandată.
