Among the beneficial oils, olive and avocado oils are
touted as two of the healthiest. Olive and avocado oil
contain monounsaturated fat, which can lower total
cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol
in the blood by lowing acidity. This is a good thing.
Choosing olive or avocado oil is a bit like choosing
wine. There are different grades, and some are more
flavorful and offer more health benefits.
Virgin, extra-virgin or refined: Virgin and extra-virgin
olive and avocado oils tend to be higher in polyphenols
(a powerful antioxidant) than are the more-processed,
refined olive or avocado oils. Antioxidants are
considered beneficial because they help the body rid
itself of acidic molecules or dietary and metabolic acids
and minimize harmful cellular acidic inflammation.
A recent study comparing virgin oil, refined oil, and
the combination of both found that virgin oil appears to
have greater heart-health benefits.
Here are some things to consider when purchasing olive
and/or avocado oils:
Freshness: The fresher the oil, the greater the
antioxidant properties. Quality olive or avocado oils
generally include a packaging date. At purchase, it
should be no more than one year old.
Price/flavor: Olive and avocado oils run the gamut in
prices. Shoppers should invest in the pricier and more
flavorful green virgin or extra-virgin oils for use in
salad dressing or drizzling over salads or side dishes.
Storage: Green Olive and avocado oils have a shelf life
of about six to twelve months. Storage in a cool dark
place is best.
Now for the good news!
