How Pecans fits common diet targets

high
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 13.9 g − 9.6 g = 4.3 g per 100 g. Low-carb plans usually count these.
  • Protein per 100 kcal compares how much protein each food gives for the same calories: Pecans gives 1.3 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 6.91 kcal/g, Pecans is high on the CDC's scale (very low below 0.6, low to 1.5, medium to 4, high above 4); lower-density foods give a larger portion for the same calories.

Logging Pecans: what to know

Walnuts have 65.2 g of fat per 100 g and pecans have 72. An ounce is 28.4 g and 196 kcal, and USDA counts that ounce in halves. These are plain pecans, so candied and salted ones need a different entry.
