Density 30 · +8 vs Fats & oils median

Oat oil posts a 30 of 100 Nutrient Density Score, a Low band, ranking 15 of 60 within Fats & oils, driven by an excellent 96% DV of vitamin E per serving, one of the highest single figures in this batch.

Pressed from oat grain, it is used the way any cooking oil is, drizzled over finished dishes or worked into dressings and light sauteing, and one tablespoon (14g) is pure fat with no protein, carbohydrate, or sodium recorded. It is high in saturated fat at 19.6 g per 100 g, so portion control matters more here than with lighter oils.
