Roberto on Big Brother cooked everything with olive oil and said its good for you. I like olive oil. Some oil is good and some is bad. The medical people say oily fish is good. My question is if I eat plenty olive oil everyday, will it promote heatlh and vitality?
Someone said it cannot increase cholesterol cus its good for you. is this true?

Olive oil helps fight bad cholesterol and it's v. good for your skin and hair. Some people worry about the calories (it is after all a fat) but it's veg fat, much better than hydrogenated oils like marge!
Olive oil also has vitamins in it.

Anything is bad in excess, however, I live in the med and use nothing but olive oil, and have it as dressing, I have a very low cholesterol level indeed, everything in moderation I say!
Oily fish such as sardines or mackerel are good for you, rich in omega 3, should be eaten 1-2 times a week. Much better than simply taking supplements

It is better to cook with olive oil rather than butter. But too much of anything is not good. Adding more olive oil to your diet won't promote health and vitality, but replacing things like butter with olive oil will make your diet healthier.

You can drink olive oil daily or sometimes but don't drink it too much or it will give fat or lipids. Here is a website that you can see about if it is too much or just the right amount. : )

Excess of any food can be bad for you. I suspect olive oil is one of the least harmful

Too much oil of any sort is not good for you. Deep fried battered banana's though are delicious.
