Olive oils: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of edible oils derived from olives, including pure olive oil, extra virgin olive oil, and blends. It also includes products marketed as olive oil 'sprays' or 'spreads', which may contain other ingredients. When choosing olive oil products, check the ingredient list to understand what else is included. For olive oil spreads, the primary ingredient should ideally be olive oil. The nutrition label is important for understanding the fat content, as all oils are high in fat. While olive oil is a source of monounsaturated fats, it's still a concentrated source of energy. The NHS Eatwell Guide suggests that fats should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Sugar and fibre are generally not relevant for pure olive oils. For products like spreads, check the salt content on the nutrition label, as the NHS advises adults to consume no more than 6g of salt per day. Free sugars are not typically found in olive oil products. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
