I wouldn't recommend any of those stop leak products or anything like that. It's just a personal thing, but I'm not a fan of adding too much to engine oil. You could have a seal leaking somewhere on the engine. Also, it could be coming from the heads. Try and find the leak's source, and it will help more in a future question. In the meantime, ask an autoparts store about heavier weight oil. The thicker viscosity may slow the leak, or stop it all together.
Also, keep in mind, it is possible that you're burning it, but you would normally smell that and notice more oil missiing. Either way, continue to check your oil often.

Most cars will develop leaks (oil, anti-freeze, transmission fluid etc.) if they survive long enough. The rubber gaskets simply rot away with time. If the leak is minor I would not worry about it. It might make a mess on your driveway and it might be bad for the environment, but it is no big deal. I recommend you be extra careful about checking your oil level to make sure you do not run too low.

10 year old truck might be the pan gasket is starting to leak. Next time you get an oil change take it in and ask the tech to check it out and advise. Shouldn't charge for it since it's on the rack already. could be the drain plug also especially if it started right after an oil change.

Lots of skin care companies like to use olive oil and almond oil in their products because of the emolient properties they offer. Many of the anti-aging lotions and treatments have these oils. They are effective and fairly expensive, so those products are thus expensive. If you are interested in some type of moisturizer that really does the trick, these two oils are good. If your skin is really oily though, it could be a bit greasy. I have found that I just have to try things to see how they work!

if theres no sign of leakage and its losing oil then if its smoking from the exhaust its burning oil and the pistin rings could be worn or the head gasket is going. if you can see drips on the driveway then look under the car n see where its coming from.
