Cooked artichoke: count the edible portion

Boiled, drained artichoke without added salt provides 53 calories per 100 g. Discarded stems, tough outer leaves and inedible fibrous parts are not included. Oil and vegetables added to a prepared dish need to be counted separately. [1]

Calories in a medium artichoke or a serving of hearts

The source's medium cooked artichoke has 120 g of edible material, providing 64 calories. It is not the weight of a whole artichoke with all its outer leaves. Half a cup of hearts is listed as 84 g, or 45 calories. Weighing what you will eat avoids treating every artichoke heart as the same size. [1]

The raw-artichoke reference instead lists 128 g edible material for a medium globe. Its weight and the cooked entry’s 120 g are not before-and-after measurements of the same artichoke. If using trimmed frozen bases, calculate the starting amount from the uncooked product reference.

Does artichoke fit a weight-management or lower-carb meal?

It can be a vegetable component of either meal. Per 100 g, cooked artichoke supplies 11.95 g total carbohydrate, 5.7 g fibre and 2.89 g protein. It is not a main protein source, so consider yogurt, beans or another suitable protein food alongside it. A carbohydrate count does not predict an individual's glucose response. [1]

Boiling or steaming without added oil makes ingredient counting straightforward, but there is no single healthiest recipe for everyone. For an olive-oil dish, divide the oil and any other ingredients among the finished portions. Canned hearts require their own label, especially when salt or oil is added.

In the raw-artichoke salad, the artichoke is uncooked while boiled potato, peas and corn are included in the recipe total. Its mixed weight is not interchangeable with plain boiled artichoke.

The breadcrumb-and-Parmesan stuffed-artichoke example includes the filling and oil: 250 g edible stuffed artichoke provides 400 kcal. That figure does not describe a plain boiled base or a rice-filled recipe.

Benefits, bloating and liver claims

Fibre is a notable contribution in this cooked-artichoke profile. That does not establish a liver-cleansing or disease-treatment effect. Findings about artichoke-leaf extracts cannot simply be applied to a serving of the vegetable. [1] [2]

Artichokes can cause gas or bloating in some people and appear among NIDDK's examples of FODMAP-containing foods. If you have IBS, note the serving and symptoms rather than assuming a high-fibre food must always feel comfortable. [3]

This is the historical USDA SR28 reference 11008 for globe artichoke, boiled and drained without salt. Jerusalem artichokes, raw artichokes and canned or frozen preparations are not interchangeable records.
