The nutritional profile of palm oil is quite similar to other cooking oils. One tablespoon contains about 120 calories and 14 grams of total fat, including 7 grams of saturated fat, 5 grams of monounsaturated fat, and 1.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat.
That’s similar to other edible oils, though they differ in the type of fats they contain. Palm oil contains more saturated fat than olive oil (and about the same amount as butter), but less than other tropical oils such as coconut oil.
