What’s in a pickle?
Most pickles have salt, vinegar and seasoning, which might pack in the calories and the sodium. On average a cucumber pickle can contain from 1 to 35 calories and almost no fat or cholesterol, but they are high in sodium, about a third of your daily recommended intake.
Cucumbers are a healthy source of fiber; they also contain small amounts of potassium, vitamin C and vitamin K. They have natural antioxidants that can protect against heart disease and even cancer.
