You really don’t know what having a quality extra virgin olive oil is like until you’ve tasted it. When you taste a high-quality extra virgin olive oil, you will notice a difference.

To get the phytonutrients (that have amazing properties) from olive oil, you need to get olive oil that’s from:
• Spain
• Greece
• Italy
• Morocco
• France
• Portugal
• Turkey
• Israel

If you’re in the US, you’re probably going to have to order the type of olive oil you need from one of these countries online or get it from a specialized store. I think the best way to recognize if it’s the real deal is by its intense flavor and aroma.

You may want to put 2-4 ounces of high-quality olive oil on your salad every day to potentially get these incredible effects.

Benefits of extra virgin olive oil:
• It has anti-inflammatory effects
• It has antimicrobial effects
• It has antithrombotic effects
• It has antiatherogenic properties
• It has retino-protective properties
• It has anti-cancer properties
• It’s UV protective

in lebanon, my grandparents used to drink a spoon/tiny cup of olive oil after waking up in the morning. that is a thing used to be taught from a generation to another...
they lived long life..good health.. perfect skin
i also did it during my childhood and rarely got sick after that

4 months ago your channel changed my life for the better I was insulin resistant on the cusp of real diabetic danger. I followed your keto plan very strictly, started working out 5 days a week just got home from the gym actually and then had organic celery and beet juice, I then used the leftover fiber and made an omlette, very tasty, I won't eat again for 12 to 14 hrs, were having your keto pizza recipe for dinner we love it !!! So far I'm down 43 lbs 4 pants sizes, and have managed to put 6lbs of muscle on, my blood pressure is almost perfect, my resting pulse went from high 90s to 68 I seriously can't ever thank you enough !!!

I buy my EVOO from the local farmer's market and it's from Greece 🇬🇷. Thank you for the reminder.

This is so true, I had a friend bring me pure olive oil in a giant bottle from Spain from his olive farm… unpackaged, just genuinely pure and wow 🤩 the color was just like a fresh olive, the aroma… just wow, the taste … literally got goosebumps thinking about it 😂 thank you for your content

Your channel is like a Book of Healthy Information.
We learn a lot...!
Thank you Dr. BERG !

For the best, choose organic, cold-pressed and in a dark glass bottle because the oil is sensitive to both heat and light

[gavinmellon]

I take 4 tablespoons of organic extra virgin olive in the morning on an empty stomach - with vitamin d, k and magnesium citrate. Sainsbury's offer quite a good choice if you live in the UK.

I grew up on Spanish olive oil, the real stuff as my family are Spanish! Used to have a shot of olive every morning..love the stuff

[zztgr]

Greece has probably the best olive oil!

[EmilioAccordions]

Yes! I’ve been saying this for years. If you’re paying $10 for a 3 liter tin, then it’s not real. Buy in glass and the price tag starts at $15 for a half liter bottle.
I get mine mostly from Gustiamo in NY. It’s the real stuff! I get mostly Southern Italian oils but sometimes even Greek.

Also it has polyphenols call, “Oleacein” it helps tremendously remove bad cholesterol out of the arteries. Great for the heart.

[curiouscat]

I use AT LEAST 1/4 cup on my giant Berg Salad every day :) I can't afford $20 a bottle every day though, so I alternate the best I can find in my grocery, with some imported from Amazon. I make my own dressing with olive oil, good quality balsamic vinegar, pastured egg (I like it creamy :) and TONS of herbs, mustard, garlic....yum - I've become addicted lol!

Relocating to Portugal has been one of the best decisions in my life. Keep discovering benefits even 4 years later.

Just started watching your programs and I’m so excited with everything that I am learning. Today is day 4 of my 18 hour IF and I am feeling rejuvenated. I’ve been on Keto (dirty) For 7 months and my LDL really spiked. Doctor wanted to put me on medication but I told her to give me 6 months to bring it down. I hope being on “clean” Keto I can accomplish this. Thanks for the easy to understand wealth of information!

You can definitely get good quality Evoo in the supermarket! They carry California and Terra Delyssa both very good! I have tried both and they taste good with the peppery finish ! Both are inexpensive as well

[RobCLynch]

One of the best things about living in Europe is having access to the better quality oils. It's not cheap, but it's available. Since beginning Keto in 2020, I cook with it at least once a day.

Try Queen Creek Olive Mill. Queen Creek, Az. They have their own olive groves and mill them to various grades of olive oil of which you have a choice. They do import some from South America but it is the whole olive not a processed oil.

I've been using first pressed extra virgin olive oil unblended in a dark coloured bottle to protect it from oxidation. Yes, it should have a stronger aroma and flavour then the regular stuff. Take three table spoons a day. Also aids digestion. You do have to shop around but there is reasonable priced oil out there. Some of the best and cheapest olive oil is from Tunisia.

Best olive oil I've ever had was from Palestine 🇵🇸

[Greyalien]

As a child I used to go to my fathers country of Morocco during the summers( I’m from Northern Europe). He always brought back olive oil made directly from the farmers in big orange jugs. I have never come close to taste anything similar. It was literal gold, we cherished it and only used it sparingly. Although I consume olive oil daily, nothing has hit the spot as that one
