Estimated for a typical 70kg (154 lb) adult — actual calories burned vary by body weight, pace, and fitness level. General reference only, not personalized advice.

A lychee relative with a similarly high natural sugar content — most published sugar figures online are actually for rambutan canned in syrup, which is higher than fresh fruit, so this estimate leans toward the fresh-fruit end.

Figures are for general reference, not personalized medical guidance; always confirm with a lab-tested label or professional for dietary decisions.

Source: Multiple nutrition-database compilations converge on 13-15.7g sugar per 100g for fresh rambutan flesh (one government nutrition-education source cites 15.7g); most published figures previously used were for the canned-in-syrup product rather than fresh fruit (last verified 2026-08-23)
