% Daily Value is how much 100 g contributes to the FDA Daily Values for adults and children 4 years and older, the figures on US nutrition labels; a dash means there is no Daily Value for that nutrient. "Not reported" means USDA has no measurement for this food, not that it contains none.

How Pumpkin fits common diet targets

Net carbs

per 100 g
Protein per 100 kcal
Energy density
0.26kcal/g
very low
  • Net carbs are total carbohydrate minus fiber: 6.5 g − 0.5 g = 6 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: Pumpkin gives 3.8 g.
  • Energy density is calories per gram. At 0.26 kcal/g, Pumpkin is very low 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 Pumpkin: what to know

Weigh pumpkin flesh raw, without rind and seeds, to match the row. Cubed raw pumpkin comes to 116 g in a cup, which is 30 kcal in total. Canned pumpkin puree is a different food with its own figures, and pie filling has added sugar.
