Olive oil is a hot topic. We first dived into the benefits of olive oil back on episode 99 with Dr Simon, but I thought it was time for an update.Today you’re going to learn about:Why Olive oil is so healthyThe evidence for Olive oils benefitsHow much Olive oil you should be consuming every day for benefitsHow to choose a quality Olive oilThe minimum polyphenol content you need to look out forWhether “cold pressed” means anythingCheap and fake olive oils and whether they have any valueDr Simon Poole is in the studio and on YouTube you can watch our taste test with 5 different olive oils. He shows me the techniques behind how to smell, taste and grade olive oils and how you can do this at home too!Dr Simon is an internationally acclaimed expert in the mediterranean diet and lifestyle, and the nutrition of extra virgin olive oil. He has more than 30 years experience as a medical doctor, he’s a teacher and researcher in Cambridge, widely published in academic journals, and is author of award winning books including The Olive Oil Diet, The Real Mediterranean Diet, Diabetes for Dummies and Diabetes Nutrition for Dummies.We also taste test his own olive oil called “Positively Good For You” that isn’t available for purchase at present, but watch this space because considering the flavour, quality and price of the oil, I expect to see it on shelves soon.🎬 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/thedoctorskitchen" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Watch the podcast on YouTube here</a>📱 <a href="https://applink.thedoctorskitchen.com/D8Et/rl6rea2q" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download The Doctor’s Kitchen app for free</a>*🌐 <a href="https://thedoctorskitchen.com/podcasts/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">View full show notes, including guest details, on our website</a>*The Doctor's Kitchen App gives you access to all of our recipes, with specific suggestions tailored to your health needs and new recipes added every month.
