Default Olive oil is looking better all the time

In Jean Carper's book on Alzheimers (and age related memery loss), she devotes chapter 76 to olive oil. She starts by recalling all the many good effects that extra-virgin olive oil can have. For example, she said it's good for coagulation, cholesterol, blood pressure, strong bones and heart. And now there are studies to indicate that it helps fight mental decline and Alzheimer's. Everything, she said, is backed up by studies.

Jean Carper is a medical journalist with 23 books to her credit. The above chapter is from: "100 Simple Things You Can Do To Prevent Alzheimer's And Age-Related Memory Loss"
