The health benefits of olive oil include treatments of breast and colon cancer, heart problems, diabetes, arthritis, and high cholesterol. It aids in losing weight, improves digestion, metabolism and prevents aging as well.


The immense health benefits of olive oil are due to different nutrients present in it such as some antioxidants, vitamin K, and vitamin E. It has mono-saturated fats like palmitoleic acid and oleic acid, which constitutes 10g of the total fatty acid count of 14g in this oil.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the core of the Mediterranean diet and is one of the healthiest diets in the world. Some health benefits of olive oil include preventing cardiovascular problems, lowering your bad cholesterol, and reducing your cancer risk as well. Also olive oil is very rich in vitamin E, which is very good news for the older population - it's good for bowel movements and cleaning the digestive tract which is great.

Yeah, I consume a lot of olive oil, but not in excess, as even too much of the healthiest thing can harm us.

The problem with olive oil is 80 percent of what is bring sold are fake and could instead harm you. I've watched a news documentary about olive oil trade in which it is said that all the olive trees in the world can't even supply 20 percent of the olive oil out in the market. It was also shown how the manufacturers fake the olive oil we can see in the supermarkets.

But if you have a good source of olive oil, the health benefits are outstanding.

I agree that olive oil has many benefits to our body especially the vitamins that it can give us. But to say that it can prevent or cure cancer, pardon my skepticism. Maybe I have been reading too many cancer cures that it seems any kind of vegetable or fruit can be used in the treatment of cancer. My belief in olive oil is its property that is best to be used in vegetable salad dressing. My mother used to whip the salad dressing with egg, olive oil, and a dash of salt.
