Frequently asked questions

How much fiber is in nectarine?
1 medium of nectarine, about 142 grams, contains 2.4 grams of dietary fiber. That is 1.7 grams of fiber per 100 grams and 9% of the 28 gram daily value.
Is nectarine high in fiber?
Not especially. Nectarine has 2.4 g per serving, which ranks 24 of 39 fruits in the FiberUp database. It still counts toward plant diversity, but the fiber in a meal will come from elsewhere.
Is the fiber in nectarine soluble or insoluble?
About 38% of the fiber in nectarine is soluble (0.9 g) and 62% is insoluble (1.5 g). Soluble fiber forms a gel that slows digestion and feeds gut bacteria; insoluble fiber adds bulk and speeds transit.
How many servings of nectarine would reach a daily fiber goal?
It would take about 11 servings to reach 25 g (the adequate intake for adult women) and 16 servings to reach 38 g (adult men). Spreading fiber across several foods is easier and better for gut bacteria diversity.

Values are per typical serving from USDA FoodData Central and standard references, rounded to one decimal. Actual fiber varies with variety, ripeness, and preparation. This is general nutrition information, not medical advice.
