Oil, vegetable, average

Vegetable oil is a plant-derived fat used in cooking. The average values described here are based on rapeseed oil. Per 100g, it provides 3696 kJ of energy and 100g of fat, including 6.6g of saturated fat. It also provides 22mg of vitamin E.

Most of the fat in rapeseed oil is unsaturated. Fat helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins, while vitamin E helps protect cells from oxidative damage. Oil is a concentrated source of energy, so the amount used is relevant for people monitoring their energy intake. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
