Oil, borage

Borage oil is an oil obtained from the seeds of the borage plant. The figures here describe the oil itself, which provides fat and energy, with only trace amounts of protein. Per 100g, it contains 100g of fat, including 14g of saturated fat, and provides 3684 kJ of energy. It contains no carbohydrate or fibre.

Fat supplies energy and helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins. As borage oil is concentrated fat, the amount used matters when considering overall energy intake. Its saturated fat content also contributes to the total in the diet. Salt is present only in trace amounts. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (12 samples). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Data from Fatty Acids Supplement only (1998). Full, unevaluated analytical data is available from the Food Standards Agency's library.
