Great!
Now maybe they will get those horrible commercials off TV with fat people sing about their damn A1C!...................
Brought to you by the olive growers association
Yup. Those are real channel changers for sure.
Green olives or black olives and how many per day?...
... This is good news in my opinion
Olives ruin my appetite, so this might work!
I pick all the olives off my pizza slices.
(Usually ordered by a friend or neighbor).
I scanned for type of olive to no avail. I’ve heard that kalamata olives are healthiest.
bump for later
So far I have noticed three: A Hispanic-looking woman, a middle-aged white woman and a black man.........but no white MEN. So, they are basically saying we don’t want white men to buy our products..................
How about a teaspoon of olive oil?
We never see commercials with men singing about ED, or old people singing about having dementia, but we’re subjected to fat people singing about T2D. Thanks so much, Big Pharma.

You can replace using butter or the fake stuff, margarine, with olive oil and won’t notice any significant difference.
I put it on baked potatoes, cook eggs in it and use it to ‘flavor’ vegetables, same as I would butter. Haven’t used the fake junk in decades.
Just be sure to keep the olive oil in a TIGHTLY SEALED CONTAINER IN THE DARK AWAY FROM LIGHT, else it will spoil from oxidation and be ‘rancid’...............
“Findings from a new mouse study indicate...Obese diabetic mice treated with elenolic acid showed improved blood sugar regulation and weight loss comparable to, or better than, current diabetic medications.”
Mice are herbivores (primarily). And it is already possible to regulate blood sugar and create weight loss by simple diet changes. The problem is too many doctors push the wrong changes, and too many people would rather die of diabetes than change how they eat.
If it leads to something, great, but it certainly doesn’t show humans would be helped by eating more olive oil.

I like olive oil and I love butter but I can definitely tell the difference. I would not put olive oil on waffles or hot biscuits nor would I make caprese balsamic reduction with butter.
I agree with you partially about storing olive oil. Cool and dark. But Olive oil will still go bad after many months. Just give it the sniff test. Bad olive oil takes on a waxy chemical smell in my experience
I’ve lost 10 pounds in the last six weeks by cutting out BREAD, SUGAR and most CARBS. No wheat products at all. Eating more protein will drop the weight fairly quickly. I also walk 3 miles most days......................
My A1C was just into diabetic territory and we decided to fix it with some lifestyle changes.
I eat out a lot due to extensive business travel. More fish. Especially salmon.
I drink zero sugar pop.
I also mix some Field of Greens from Brickhouse Nutrition and drink a glass of that every day.
That minor combination resulted in about 30 lbs weight loss and a huge drop in A1C. (7.5 to 6.2)
For the record, I hate olives so that won’t become part of my diet.
I understand the logic behind the sentence...but...as many doctors will tell you, diabetes never killed anyone. It's the associated issues brought on by diabetes that are the killers...neuropathy, high blood pressure, heart attacks, etc.
