Olive Oil In Dieting

I heard the other day about using olive oil in your daily diet, eating a spoonful of olive oil every day.  Apparently it’s supposed to keep your system lubricated and running smoothly.  It’s supposed to be a good part of a cleanse and maintaining a cleanse after the fact.  Who really knows with that.  But this being said, it’s not a bad idea in total.  I mean think about it.  Olives in themselves are packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, all things that are good for the body in general and I could see that helping to maintain weight and otherwise. 

But they also have good fats, which is essential to your weight loss efforts.  Without good fats, over time you actually cannot lose weight, it’s literally impossible.  It’s one of those things that would be hard to cut out all fats anyway.  But though I’m not so sure how I feel about taking a spoonful every day, it’s a good thing.  To me it would be like taking a spoonful of flaxseed oil for example every day.  It just doesn’t taste good to me. 

I might incorporate it into my cooking.  But realistically speaking, that’s about all I could stand.  I just don’t take those things strait, especially from sources like olives I don’t like anyway.
