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 lowering 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.
