44. Why NOT to cook with olive oil!

Corinne Angelica

I can’t wait to chat with you today about how to properly use olive oil because it’s such an easy swap that makes a huge difference in our health!

 

Olive oil has a low smoke point which means when it’s exposed to heat it turns to a trans fat!

Trans fats raise your LDL “bad” cholesterol & lower your HDL “good” cholesterol. High LDL & low HDL levels can cause cholesterol to build up in your arteries which increases your risk for heart disease and stroke.

I recommend sautéing in low sodium vegetable broth and cooking with avocado and/or coconut oil!

Use Extra Virgin Olive Oil on salads or add it to food AFTER it’s been cooked.

Trans fats also cause inflammation in our body & gut which negatively affects every area of our health.
