Where the calories come from

Olive Oil is low in protein: only 0% of its calories come from protein. Most of its calories (100%) come from fat.

Calculated with 4 kcal per gram of protein and carbohydrate and 9 kcal per gram of fat, so the total can differ slightly from the listed calories.

Olive oil is pressed from olives and is pure fat, mostly monounsaturated, with about 884 kcal per 100 g, about the same energy density as other cooking oils. Extra virgin and light versions differ in flavor and smoke point, not calories. Because it is easy to over-pour, measuring with a spoon, or using a spray or brush, makes a big difference in salads and roasting pans.

Typical portion: A tablespoon of olive oil (about 13.5 g) works out to roughly 120 kcal, and a teaspoon to about 40 kcal.

Also known as: extra virgin olive oil, evoo, jaitun ka tel, light olive oil
