Is olive oil unhealthy? A new study analyzes whole food, plant-based diets with and without olive oil and how they affect the heart and cardiometabolic risk factors.

 

Dr. Neal Barnard goes inside the study and surprising findings when he joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Live.

 

Previous research has shown that a healthy diet that includes extra-virgin olive oil is beneficial, but the crossover trial in this study begs the question: Are you better off without it?

 

Topics Discussed

- Olive oil effects on cholesterol

- Heart health risk factors with and without oil

- Comparing the new findings with previous research on olive oil

- Comparing health factors of olive and other oils

- How to cook without oil

- And more

 

This episode is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg’s passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation.
