Taro is a starchy root vegetable, and these figures describe it in its raw form. Per 100g, it provides 26g of carbohydrate and 451 kJ of energy, along with 360mg of potassium and 13mg of vitamin C. Carbohydrate is its main energy-providing nutrient.
Potassium supports normal nerve and muscle function, while vitamin C helps the body form connective tissue and absorb iron from plant foods. Taro should be thoroughly cooked before eating because it contains substances that can irritate the mouth and throat when raw. Cooking can change its nutrient content. Full nutritional figures for raw taro are provided in the tables below.
