Ghee Or Olive Oil

Nutritional highlights

Ghee provides saturated fat and small amounts of vitamins A, E, and K, while olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fat, especially oleic acid, and contains vitamin E and polyphenols.

Caution. Ghee is a dairy-derived fat and may not be suitable for people with dairy allergy; both are calorie-dense and should be used in moderation.
