Olive oil is a healthy food. It lowers LDL (the
bad cholesterol) and contains polyphenols that
fight chemicals called free radicals linked to
aging, immune system breakdown, heart disease,
and cancer. It might be one reason why
people living in
Mediterranean
countries live so
long and have
such low rates
of heart disease
and cancer.
Spanish
researchers confirmed
that the
polyphenols in
extra-virgin olive
oil interfered
with breast cancer
cell growth
in laboratory cultures.
We can’t
say for sure
whether it prevents
breast
cancer in
humans.
