Olive Oil

@carnivoremd2 What do I think about olive oil? It’s WAY better than seed oils! Extra virgin oil olive (this is the only kind of olive oil I would consume) is extracted from olives with either a press or a machine that spins the olives… It is also not heated above 124.5 degrees F and is not exposed to chemical solvents… This is VERY different than the way SEED OILS like corn, canola, sunflower, and soybean are made…. These oils are heavily refined, bleached, hexane extracted, and deodorized… A harsh process that absolutely damages these oils and leaves them oxidized at high levels… The refining process also results in trans fats in these oils and traces of the chemicals used for extraction… No bueno… But extra virgin olive oil doesn’t have any of these issues, and it is lower in Linoleic acid than seed oils… To be clear, I prefer animal fats like butter, ghee and tallow over olive oil, because these have even lower amounts of linoleic acid (2% vs 15%), and unique nutrients like stearic acid and odd chain fatty acids that olive oil lacks… But olive oil is MUCH better than seed oils, and if you are using it in place of these you are on there right track… One caveat is that I would NOT cook in olive oil, and would only use animal fats for cooking- they are more stable at high temperatures (this is not the smoke point, it has to do with saturated fat content)… I don’t eat salad, so I don’t have a use for olive oil in my diet, I only use butter and tallow… If you choose to consume olive oil, select organic, extra virgin, in a dark glass bottle from a producer you trust… No matter what, get seed oils out of your diet completely! What do I think you should eat to be optimally healthy otherwise?
