Guest guest Posted August 26, 2002 Report Share Posted August 26, 2002 I believe Olive oil is OK. After that I believe the research of the last twenty years: Which shows that " saturated fat " is bad is in error! One needs to learn the truth about fats. Some saturated fat is really bad, some is really good! Find out the difference! So check out " www.coconut-info.com Then tell us about saturated fat. Lorenzo The trouble-making saturated fatty acids are found in animal fats, such as butter and lard and hydrogenated/partially hydrogenated vegetable oils. Olive oil is the richest in monounsaturated fats,followed by Avocado Oils. These two oils are found to LOWER blood cholesterol. A recent study found that LDL (bad) cholesterol levels were reduced by some seven percent by substituting olive oil for margarine-more if the oil is used to replace butter. Four or five tablespoons of olive oil daily dramatically improve the blood profiles of heart attack patients. And two-thirds of a tablespoon daily lowered blood pressure. The health aspects of olive oil are not limited to its positive effect in the battle against heart disease. . --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
