“Consumer Reports” revealed that approximately 20% of ALL olive oils
are FAKE and have been mixed with other cheap oils, while still claiming to be
100% pure.
Even worse is what the UC Davis Olive Center unveiled when they discovered
that 73% of olive oils labeled as “extra virgin” (the best and most nutritious kind
of olive oil) did NOT PASS purity testing and were instead heavily processed.
What does this mean? It means that the olive oil you have in your kitchen RIGHT
NOW has a very strong chance of being heavily processed and may even contain
up to 100% vegetable oil, both instances in which your olive oil will be LOADED
with dangerous trans fats that are destroying your health and wreaking havoc
on your waistline.
Be alert.

If there could be more such blogs to alert to these facts and you have helped me to check even my olive oils more closely and may be saving for family health now.
Made mme feel more responsible for choices so thanks.
I wish there were more such blogs.
