Researchers at the Minnesota Medical School have discovered that Extra Virgin Olive Oil can extend your life by activating an anti-aging pathway in your body. This may be the key reason the Mediterranean diet works so well in life extension and reduction of diseases. Two of the five "Blue Zones" where people live the longest are located in the Mediterranean, where Olive Oil is a staple of the diet. Olive Oil is as effective if not more so than Resveratrol, which is found in red grapes.

For Olive Oil to be effective, it must be:

  • Organic Extra Virgin
  • Unheated (heating destroys the properties)
  • Combined with Exercise and Fasting -or- Calorie Restriction

Importance of Exercise and Calorie Restriction

Olive Oil, like other fats, gets stored in microscopic lipid droplets in your body. When the fat is broken down during exercising or fasting, these healthy fats get activated. So the only way to achieve maximum benefit of consuming Olive Oil is in conjunction with exercise and calorie restriction.

Olive Oil Anti-Cancer Properties

Olive oil is also an effective cancer preventative and can be an effective means to target and kill drug resistant cancer stem cells. Read about it here:

Only stuff I cook with. Thanks for this

Thanks! Remember to get the anti-aging properties, it must be unheated. Add it to your salads and top off your already cooked foods.

It's hard to get quality Olive oil. The market is filled with garbage. Do you know of a trusted brand?

What do you think about cooking with coconut oil.

Check these lists of the good Olive Oils. I like the cooc.com ones, that taste of a peppery finish in the back of the throat, even for the more buttery ones.

Bragg's Olive Oil is great.

I share your concerns about the quality. I too am looking for sources of high-quality brands. I tend to choose those sourced from N. Cal or Spain or Italy.

Have you tried avacado oil? Great for cooking and doesn't go rancid as quickly.

I exclusively cook with avocado oil indoors. Higher smoke point. Hopefully its healthy?

[–] 0 pt

Not yet. I tend to cook with a mix of second press olive oil + EVOO. I finish with EVOO to get the health benefits.

I will definitely try the Avocado oil!

Olive oil isn't intended to be fried though

I use it as a loose term. I make cowboy caviar and still say cooking despite no stove involved

Correct about EVOO. In Italy they use it as a finishing oil in order to get the health benefits. ;)

It's healthier than other oils for this purpose. If you live somewhere where you can buy it in bulk, you can certainly afford to use it to heat the pan.

Just because it's healthier than palm oil doesn't make it fit for frying a steak in a pan

When you heat olive oil to its smoke point all the beneficial compounds in it start to degrade. Needless to mention that unhealthy compounds start to form

It's bordering on heresy to use it to fry things

that's what the veggy oil industry told us.. You have to research where this bullshit is from.

No, I'm talking from experience here kid, you obviously never tried to fry a steak in a frying pan with olive oil
