380g | Properties of the Tamarind Fruit

It is an extremely nutritious fruit, perhaps one of the non-oil-rich fruits with the lowest water content (31.4%). It provides very little oil, but it does have an interesting combination of vitamins (vitamin A and vitamin C, both very important for the proper functioning of the immune system and antioxidants) and minerals (such as phosphorus, zinc, and iron). Its pulp is a good source of energy thanks to its carbohydrates. It is one of the fruits with the highest protein concentration compared to others. It is a good source of calcium. If you don't like or can't consume dairy products at home and are concerned about eating foods rich in calcium, tamarind is a good option.
