Coach's take: is Fruit Jam healthy?

  • ●Fruit Jam is moderately calorie-dense at 260 kcal per 100 g. About 99% of its calories come from carbs, 1% from protein and 0% from fat.
  • ●Most of its calories come from sugar, which digests fast and won't keep you full. On a fat-loss diet, keep it occasional and count it. 1 tbsp (20 g) adds 52 kcal.
  • ●It's low in protein (0.1 g in 1 tbsp (20 g)), so if you're building muscle, pair it with dal, paneer, curd, eggs or chicken.
  • ●Much of its carbohydrate is sugar (60 g per 100 g), so treat it as an occasional food rather than a daily staple.

To burn it off: 1 tbsp (20 g) (52 kcal) takes about 10 min of brisk walking or 5 min of running for a 70 kg adult.
