Brussels sprouts, raw

Brussels sprouts are a vegetable, described here raw with the base trimmed and outer leaves removed. They provide carbohydrate and protein, alongside vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they contain 4.1g of carbohydrate, 3.5g of protein, 115mg of vitamin C and 135µg of folate. These figures refer to the raw vegetable rather than cooked sprouts or dishes with added ingredients.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Folate is needed for normal cell division and red blood cell formation. Raw Brussels sprouts contain little salt or saturated fat, although additions during preparation can change this. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
