Since GNP increase our requirement for life quality is going up, 50 years ago people were full-up they feel satisfied, but now people not only require full-up if the food was not delicious they feel unhappy, even some people not only require delicious food they also require healthy food, because our lifespan is getting longer if you were alive but not healthy your life is not happy.
According to medical report, many people suffer from heart disease, and the main reason for getting heart disease is your eating habit you eat too much wrong things. So what is right thing? Some advertisement shows that olive oil can clean your artery heart disease protect your heart prevent. Is it truth? Yes, because it contain rich mono-saturated fatty acid and olive oil divide 4 levels “extra virgin olive oil “virgin olive oil “refined olive oil”pure olive oil” high level one has high nutrition and low level has low nutrition, most of restaurant use this one because is cheap, if you care your health you should choose extra virgin olive oil, cheap products have not good quality.
This recommendation came from advertisement, it’s absolutely right, but every thing has two sides not only has good part company only will tell good part to customer, because they tell you bad part you don’t buy it. Here is a report it shows the bad part, yes mono-saturated fatty acid can clean your artery, but it’s easy to mutate if heat the oil mono-saturated fatty acid will become free radical and then free radical will cause heart disease, when you cook will you heat oil? Yes, so you eat oil to prevent heart disease, bet actually it cause heart diseases. Do you still want to eat olive oil? Don’t worry if you don’t over heat it, it doesn’t oxygenate. When you cook you will heat oil if it doesn’t smoke, it still healthy, but if it smoke, it is unhealthy. When it smoke the temperature we call smoking point, every kind of oil has different smoking point, for “extra virgin olive oil” and “virgin olive oil” they are 180 degree, for “refined olive oil” it is 190 degree, for “pure olive oil” it is 200 degree. The smoking point is higher it is safer, so you see the cheap one is better then others, who say cheap products have not good quality.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you care your health you understand how to use the oil, through right way to cook, otherwise you must choose the oil depend on your cooking habit.
