Raspberry

Rubus idaeus · Fruit

Raspberries are delicate, sweet-tart berries rich in fibre and phenolic compounds such as anthocyanins and ellagitannins. These plant compounds have been studied in laboratory research for their antioxidant activity. Eat raspberries fresh, fold them into desserts and yoghurt, or cook them into jams and sauces.

Polyols

SorbitolNot a source

Source: Measured value (BLS 4.0)

What this means

This is raspberry'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.

Sugars

Per 100 g

Total fructose2.5 g

Excess fructoseNot a source

Source: Measured value (BLS 4.0)

What this means

These are raspberry'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.
