Calories in Apple
Per 1 medium, 180 g
Apple has 94 calories per 1 medium, 180 g. That is about 5% of a 2,000-calorie day. The same serving provides 0.5 g of protein, 25.0 g of carbohydrate, 0.3 g of fat and 4.3 g of fibre. Per 100 g, that works out at 52 calories and 0.3 g of protein. Against the thresholds EU food labelling uses, it qualifies as fat free and low energy density. Most of the fibre is in the skin, so eating it unpeeled roughly doubles what you get.
