Karela, also known as bitter gourd, is a vegetable. The figures here describe canned karela that has been drained and rinsed. It consists mainly of water, with small amounts of carbohydrate, protein and fat. Per 100g, it provides 0.8g of carbohydrate, 0.9g of protein, 14mg of vitamin C and 36µg of folate.
Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Folate is needed for normal cell division and blood formation. Canned karela also contains salt, even after draining and rinsing, which is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Full nutrient figures, including salt and energy, are given in the tables below.

About these figures
Values are per 100g of the food as described (10 samples, 4 brands. Rinsed). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Vegetables, Herbs and Spices Supplement, 1991.
