Strawberries vs Raspberries

Side-by-side nutrition comparison per serving. See which fits your goals better.

Strawberries and raspberries are both berry favorites, but raspberries pack a surprising nutritional punch per calorie. Strawberries deliver 32 calories per 100g with 7.68g carbs and 2g fiber. Raspberries come in at 52 calories with 12.9g carbs but with exceptional fiber content. Per serving, raspberries provide significantly more fiber, making them one of the most fiber-dense fruits available.

Vitamin C content slightly favors strawberries on a per-calorie basis — they deliver a full day's worth per cup. Raspberries are no slouch, providing about 50 percent of daily needs per cup, but strawberries are the stronger immune-support choice. Both berries are rich in anthocyanins and ellagic acid, antioxidants with established anti-inflammatory and potential anti-cancer properties.

For people managing blood sugar, raspberries' higher fiber-to-sugar ratio makes them the smarter choice. The fiber slows glucose absorption, resulting in a flatter blood sugar curve. Strawberries' lower calorie count per serving makes them better for high-volume snacking. Both are excellent on a caloric deficit — the real win is eating more berries of any type.

Pro tip

Buy frozen berries in bulk — they are picked at peak ripeness, nutritionally equivalent to fresh, and cost 30-50 percent less. Thaw a cup overnight in the fridge for morning oatmeal or yogurt toppings, or blend straight from frozen into smoothies.
