Yep, you read that right. Reading how extra virgin olive oil had been confirmed now to extend lifespan, I am adding it to my coffee. Here’s my recipe:
Coffee 1 T coconut oil 1 T olive oil Splash of half and half Blend on high
I am having this twice a day, almost a meal replacement at around 250 calories
Try it today and thank me tomorrow I might add collagen too 🤔

‘In a postprandial study, it was found that a single meal rich in olive oil raised PON1 arylesterase activity in the serum chylomicron fraction by 25% compared with a meal rich in cream [37], possibly due to the formation of a greater number of chylomicrons and delayed clearance of chylomicron remnants after ingestion of olive oil. A similar finding was observed when thermally stressed olive oil was given to middle-aged and older diabetic women [38]. These results point to a relationship between virgin olive oil consumption and PON1 levels in humans irrespective of experimental design‘ Tyrosol, a main phenol present in extra virgin olive oil, increases lifespan and stress resistance in Caenorhabditis elegans pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22824366/Mariam Amash drank olive oil every day www.ez3dbiz.com/olive_oil_extends_lifespan.html

Olive oil is not considered a health food by many researchers (MDs such as Esselstyn, McDougall, etc. suggest the same thing) as it is a heavily processed product, not a natural food. Olives, OTOH, definitely a great and healthy food with all nutrients intact. Coconut oil? High in saturated fats...SFAs are proven to raise LDL. Also, heavily processed and horrible for the environment and possibly your health: www.treehugger.com/how-environmentally-friendly-is-coconut-oil-5206943#:~:text=Environmental%20Impact%20of%20Coconut%20Oil&text=In%20general%2C%20the%20main%20environmental,with%20important%20levels%20of%20biodiversity. Finally, 1/2 + 1/2...saturated fat, cholesterol and lactose (sugar). (Just me, but I avoid dairy as much as possible.) Plus, dairy significantly reduces the benefits of those wonderful polyphenols in your coffee: nutritionfacts.org/blog/coffee-benefits-blocked-by-adding-milk/#:~:text=However%2C%20if%20you%20eat%20the,but%20adding%20soymilk%20does%20not. Still drink my coffee straight up. Nothing like a big cup of rich, dark coffee with all of the amazing nutrients it provides first thing in the morning.

BTW, the guy who started this whole Bulletproof Diet craze? (Coffee + MCT Oil + Butter) Dave Asprey Met him at a conference in San Jose years ago when he was in Silicon Valley -- he'd spoken at a conference...sharp guy, knew his stuff. But, don't recall seeing him eating the "healthy" diet cited in interviews, also believe claimed in his book. Pics on the web of Dave in the 90s, early 2000s while allegedly eating a lean, clean diet. How about Dave's tales regarding the magic power of his fat-laden coffee? Bulletproof Coffee Based on BS
Joe Rogan spent an entire podcast calling out Asprey's lies...

1. The article is written by a chiropractor, not a cardiologist or internal medicine MD. I'd go to a chiropractor for advice on what is healthy for my heart like I'd go to a dentist for advise an a torn ACL. 2. "However, if your LDL cholesterol is mostly made up of large, fluffy particles and your triglycerides are low, your risk of heart disease is much lower." Completely wrong...I've written several cardiologists about this and they said this claim is both wrong and dangerous. 3. This is probably the most ridiculous comment in the whole post: "There’s no need to avoid saturated fat as long as it comes from a healthy, plant-based source. Coconut oil is definitely preferable to cheap, highly processed vegetable oils that have had their nutrients stripped away." Coconut oil is a highly processed oil stripped of its nutrients -- any claim otherwise is misrepresenting the facts. On top of that, as noted coconut oil is an environmentally unfriendly product due to the deforestation, waste and chemicals/solvents used.

lipidworld.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12944-021-01501-0The effects of fat consumption on low-density lipoprotein particle size in healthy individuals: a narrative review It has been suggested that replacing saturated fatty acids with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids decreases the risk for CVD. However, certain studies are not in agreement with this recommendation, as saturated fatty acid intake did not increase the risk for CVD, cardiovascular events, and/or mortality. Furthermore, consumption of saturated fat has been demonstrated to increase large, buoyant LDL particles, which may explain, in part, for the differing outcomes regarding fat consumption on CVD risk. www.healthcentral.com/condition/high-cholesterol/cholesterol-particle-size

I don't eat coconut oil because it goes through me like a rat up a pipe but I've used it on my skin after shower when I've been working on site as the cement dries my skin. I now use mct oil which comes from coconut oil. I even shave with it. It's not as easy to shave with as a commercial shaving foam but I don't like putting those chemicals on my face.
How to. Wet your face with water. Pour a teaspoon or two of mct oil in your hand and then use both hands to rub it on your face and then shave. Any oil left on your face after shaving can be rubbed onto your arms or whatever.

I'm sure Denis and Moxohol will have some good detailed info on this and more. I’ve had & seen cold pressed virgin olive oil in Greece & it’s nothing like the stuff u buy in stores. Not even close. TexasDanger is right: there’s no miracle fat to sip in yr coffee. They say drinking jizz is a healthy practice too but are u going to go THERE? I put that idea on par with drinking yr own piss except this cuppa joe is gonna have a creamier texture. BLECCH. From what I understand there are catalysts associated with fat that come in the form of Vitamin C & various flavonoids that also regulate Flow Mediated Dilation too. The human body only needs two essential fatty acids & they are: alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3 fatty acid) and linoleic acid (omega-6 fatty acid). These 2 essential fatty acids are required for the lipids of all yr cell membranes, enzymes & hormones, and the body cannot synthesize them. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) is found in plant oils, nuts, flax seeds, and leafy vegetables, while linoleic acid (LA) is found in vegetable oils, nuts, and seeds. The body can convert ALA into other omega-3 fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), like that found in cold-water fish. The problem with a SAD is that the ratio of omega 3’s to omega 6’s is very skewed. The ideal ratio for omega 3 to 6 is supposed to be 1:4. Israel is a fine example of a population that eats very kosher healthy foods but has a high incidence of heart attack & stroke. Why? Because they cook & season their foods with oils or fats high in omega 6’s which become part of yr cell membranes & increase the cytokines. Yr better off staying away from any seed or plant oils in general which are high in omega 6’s. Use butter or ghee instead instead. Flax seeds simply have co-factors to help the body make omega 3’s. Chia seeds actually contain a decent amount of omega 3’s which is why I throw it in my cacao. Fish oil isn’t all that healthy either from what I’ve read. Butters have high amounts of short chained fatty acids in the form of Butyric acid but not that much of it. BTW, yr beneficial gut biomes thrive on fiber & produce SCFA’s in the gut from them which is healthy. The bad gut biomes thrive on various sugars & starches. Yr gut Biomes regulate health, intelligence, aging, homeostasis & many other functions. U got 2.5kg of the stuff in yr gut so u may as well take care of them & they’ll take of u. It’s off topic but I also included this FYI: Cholesterol Sulfate Deficiency and Coronary Heart Disease www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/modern-diseases/cholesterol-sulfate-deficiency-coronary-heart-disease/#gsc.tab=0

I stopped using cooking oils years ago, but have recently begun to use the "virgin", unrefined coconut oil and EVOO. Of my go-tos for greasing a dish among the three I use; organic rendered lard, EVOO and coconut oil ..., EVOO wins for non-stick results (if that's a goal)..... just sayin'.
I wonder how castor oil would work for cooking?

Why? Several reasons: 1. So called large "flully" LDL still contains cholesteryl esters and apoB-100. That doesn't change if it is large or small. LDL is still carrying substances that can damage your arteries. 2. Papers have shown larger LDL can and will penetrate the lining of the arterial walls. I did a quick search (sorry, it is early) and can't find the papers. But, Simon Hill who is a PhD (?) quickly summarizes the facts re so-called LDL:
