Best Answer

Sweet corn is a good source of many nutrients. A medium sized ear of corn has about 75 calories and one gram of fat. It supplies carbohydrates, protein, and potassium, and is a good source of dietary fiber. Other nutrients include thiamine (vitamin B1), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), folate, dietary fiber, vitamin C, phosphorous, and manganese. Corn also contains beta-carotene, and is a useful source of protein.
