Omega 9
Monounsaturated fats, mainly oleic acid. They are the dominant fat in olive oil, rapeseed oil, avocados and most nuts.
Best food sources of omega 9
Richest foods in each food group, per 100 g. Some foods, such as dried herbs, spices and oils, are eaten in far smaller amounts than 100 g, so a high rank does not always mean a meaningful contribution to a meal.
