Are potatoes high in calories? how much is it? I like glutinous rice very much, but I'm afraid of being fat ~

Potatoes (50g each) are about 120 calories.

For fruits, vegetables, fruit juice, sweet drinks and other foods, the higher the carbohydrate, the higher the calorie. These foods are usually low in fat (except durian and avocado), and protein is also low. Their main source of heat is carbohydrates (including sugar and starch), especially sugar. Sugar is a solute. The more sugar, the lower the proportion of water in fruit or drink.

Therefore, the same kind of fruit, sweet varieties have higher calories than non-sweet varieties. Grapes, for example, are especially sweet, and the sugar content can even reach more than 20%. 100% grape juice products are generally more than 15% sugar.

Extended data

When the labeled calorie value is the same high, the higher the digestion and absorption rate, the higher the calorie, the dietary fiber in food will delay the digestion and absorption rate, and the resistant starch is not easy to digest and absorb. However, resistant starch is often included in the calorie value of food.

The so-called resistant starch is the part of starch that is difficult to be digested in the small intestine, although it is pure starch. They will directly enter the large intestine, act as fermentable dietary fiber, become "food" for beneficial bacteria in the large intestine, and produce "short-chain fatty acids". These short-chain fatty acids are beneficial to inhibit harmful bacteria, prevent intestinal cancer and control blood lipid levels.
