WHFoods Weekly Newsletter: Focus on Extra Virgin Olive Oil

[WHFoods.org]( WHFoods Newsletter Nature's Nutrient-Rich Foods May 21, 2018 [How to Eat Healthier in 2018[How to Eat Healthier in 2018]]( [George Mateljan] Dear Friend of WHFoods: Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is our oil of choice at WHFoods. We don't profile any other cooking oils on our website, and we don't include any other cooking oils in our recipes or our meal plans. In addition, we never cook with EVOO, but routinely add it to dressings, sauces, dips, pesto, and many already-cooked foods. The reason that we place special emphasis on EVOO and take special care in its use is quite simple: we find the health benefits of this oil to be remarkable, and very closely tied to its phenol and polyphenol content. And we see no way to maximally preserve its phenols and polyphenols without avoiding cooking heats.
