It comes from the fruit of the avocado tree. This oil contains 124 calories per tbsp and 14 gm of fat. The fat in avocado oil is mostly unsaturated, making it a heart-healthy choice. One tbsp of avocado oil has about 2 gm of saturated fat, 10 gm of monounsaturated fat and 2 gm of polyunsaturated fat. Avocado oil is cholesterol-free. Unlike olive oil, avocado oil can safely be used at high temperatures without burning.
