Toxic oil
David Gillespie discusses the relationship between processed oils and our health. Despite the suggestion that oils are healthy for you, there is an association between the increasing use of oil in our foods and the increase in various diseases including heart disease, cancer, diabetes and obesity.
Olive oil is better than saturated fats and trans fats in terms of the impact on blood lipids. However, it should be noted that just because something is labelled as being better for you, doesn't mean it is good for you.
All fats promote inflammation, and inflammation leads to chronic diseases and for those of you being mindful of your weight, just two tablespoons of olive oil is a whopping 240 calories.
