> Commissioned by the International Olive Council Okay, now I'm convinced you really are kidding.

  It's an industry sponsored survey of scientific research. That they included a result in it does not impugn the research. (the citations of scientific papers are on the bottom of each page...) Note the in industry material in my comment above. I anticipated this response, I didn't have to edit it to put that in.

    The citations don't support your conclusion, and neither does the entire paper itself. At best, it shows whole olives are a healthy food to eat from time to time. How can you possibly reason extracting, refining, processing and heating olives make them into "good oils"? My advice for you is, don't allow yourself to be informed by industry, and look for unbiased systematic reviews and meta-analyses instead.

      So stuff like http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16571180 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16571180 or http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16954359 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16954359 is bullcrap because you say so? Anyway, have fun.
