Rosemary is a herb used to flavour food, and the figures here describe its fresh leaves. It provides carbohydrate and fibre, along with vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, fresh rosemary contains 14g of carbohydrate, 12g of fibre, 370mg of calcium and 8.5mg of iron. It also contains some fat and a small amount of protein.
Fibre supports normal bowel function, while calcium helps maintain bones and teeth. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Rosemary is usually used in small amounts as a seasoning, so its contribution to nutrient intake is smaller than these figures suggest. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
