SATURATED FAT AND HEART DISEASE:

“After a comparison of the effects of the 2 diets in both men and women, the incidence of coronary artery disease was lower by 50% and 65% after the consumption of polyunsaturated fat in the 2 hospitals.” Roc’s Translation: Unsaturated fats, especially olive oil and fish oil which contain omega-3 fatty acids which reduce inflammation, remain particularly beneficial to health.

USE OLIVE OIL:

Mutual adjustment between olive oil and vegetables, which are frequently consumed together, indicated that olive oil has the dominant beneficial effect on arterial blood pressure in this population.
