Fruit Calories how many calories in a piece of fruit
The number of calories in different fruits are shown in the table below. The fruit calories table shows how many calories are consumed with each average piece. As most fruit calories come from natural sugars, we have also included the carbohydrate count shown in grams. We have also added the water content for different fruits. Generally the higher the water content the lower the calorie content of each fruit.
Portion size can vary between the different fruits, as well as the subjective view of the individual, therefore the calories list for fruits was calculated from what we feel is an average piece of fruit. For some fruits, you may have to think about what you consider is the appropriate size for each portion. If an average sized seedless grape, including the skin, were eaten the table shows there would be around 2.4 calories consumed, if YOUR portion size for grapes is ten pieces then multiply the value by ten, in this example 24 fruit calories consumed. Losing weight can be so much easier with a diet containing lots of fruit. The reason is calories in fruit are usually very low, mainly due to the large percentage of water present in most fruits. This high water content can help replenish fluid balance and make you feel fresh and ready for exercise. It is also hard to overeat with fruit portions as the large water and fibre content causes the stomach to fill up quickly. For this reason it may be a good idea to eat a piece of fruit before each meal.

Nutritional experts suggest we eat around five portions of fresh fruit and vegetables each day. A single handful of dried fruits will provide one portion of the five a day suggestion. A diet high in fruits and vegetables has several advantages. They are foods high in potassium, helping to regulate fluid retention and blood pressure. It is high in fibre and fluid (helping to prevent constipation). Fruits in particular, are high in soluble fibre, which helps to control blood sugar levels and may therefore help to prevent binging and mid-life weight gains. And, because they are mostly foods low in calories, they help to control your weight that way too.
