Nutrition
Evidence from epidemiological studies suggests that a higher proportion of
monounsaturated fats in the diet is linked with a reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease.This is significant because olive oil is considerably rich in monounsaturated fats, most notably oleic acid.
Scientific evidence suggests that eating about 2 
tbsp. (23 g) of olive oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the monounsaturated fat in olive oil. To achieve this possible benefit, olive oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat
and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day.

Use
Used on salads, added at the table to soups and stews and for dipping.
Fish and meat grilled/in the oven.
