Gourd, tinda, raw

Tinda is a type of gourd eaten as a vegetable. The figures here describe it raw. It consists mainly of water and provides carbohydrate, small amounts of protein and fat, and vitamin C. Per 100g, it contains 3.6g of carbohydrate, 1.4g of protein, 0.2g of fat and 18mg of vitamin C.

Vitamin C supports normal immune function and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. It is also needed to make collagen, a protein found in skin and other connective tissues. Cooking can change the vitamin C content, and added ingredients can change the fat, salt and energy content of a dish. Full nutrient figures for raw tinda are in the tables below.
