Mustard green
Mustard greens are peppery, leafy greens from the Brassica family and a good source of vitamin C, vitamin K and vitamin A; Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. They also contain glucosinolates studied in laboratory research for their antioxidant activity. Use young leaves raw in salads, or saute, braise or stir-fry mature ones to tame their bite.
Polyols
SorbitolNot yet analysed
Source: Not yet analysed
What this means
This is mustard green's own sorbitol content, not a recipe amount. Sorbitol is a polyol — a type of sugar alcohol — calculated from two official food-composition databases, Germany's Bundeslebensmittelschlüssel (BLS 4.0) and the French Ciqual table. Recipes are evaluated separately against a 0.20 g threshold (a per-serving cutoff from Varney et al. 2017, Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, applied to one reference serving of the recipe) — an ingredient's own figure isn't directly comparable to that number, since a recipe combines several ingredients in different amounts. This describes the food, not a guarantee about how your body will respond to it.

Total fructoseNot yet analysed
Excess fructoseNot a source
Source: Not a source of excess fructose (structural classification); total fructose not measured
What this means
These are mustard green's own fructose figures, not a recipe amount. Total fructose is how much fructose the food contains. Excess fructose is fructose minus glucose, counted only when positive, since glucose helps the body absorb fructose — it is the figure behind the "Low fructose" filter and the recipe figures. When measured, both come from two official food-composition databases, Germany's Bundeslebensmittelschlüssel (BLS 4.0) and the French Ciqual table. Recipes are evaluated separately against a 0.40 g threshold of excess fructose (a per-serving cutoff from Varney et al. 2017, Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, applied to one reference serving of the recipe) — an ingredient's own figure isn't directly comparable to that number, since a recipe combines several ingredients in different amounts. This describes the food, not a guarantee about how your body will respond to it.
