How many calories in the olive?

The olive is a fairly high calorie fruit, even very high in calories depending on its color. Indeed, the green olive already contains more than 100 kcal per 100 grams while the black olive contains almost three times more calories for the same weight. This marked difference is due to the fact that the green olive is picked much earlier than the black olive which has been left to mature longer and which contains much more lipids. It is also olives picked late that we extract the olive oil. The main nutrients of the olive are the lipids present largely in the form of monounsaturated fatty acids, the consumption of which can reduce the levels of bad cholesterol while increasing the levels of good cholesterol.

Olive also contains antioxidants in the form of phenolic compounds. These antioxidants could have a beneficial influence in combating the effects of aging, preventing the development of cardiovascular diseases and certain cancers.

However, you should know that black olive contains three to four times more of these phenolic compounds than green olives. Likewise, black olives contain ten times more than olive oil. Black olive is therefore certainly more caloric but it could have more interesting effects on health.

Finally, the olive is a source of iron, copper and vitamin E, a vitamin known for its antioxidant properties.
