Cumin seeds are the seeds of the cumin plant, used as a spice either whole or ground. The supplied figures describe the seeds, using data from literature sources. Per 100g, they provide 22g of fat, 18g of protein, 11g of fibre and 66mg of iron, alongside other vitamins and minerals.
Fibre supports normal bowel function, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Iron from plant foods is less readily absorbed than iron from animal sources. Cumin seeds are generally used in small amounts, so their contribution to nutrient intake will be much lower than these figures suggest. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.

About these figures
Values are per 100g of the food as described (Literature sources). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.
