Brief
Olive oil may be high in caloÂries, but that doesÂn’t mean eatÂing it will lead to weight gain. What’s more, olive oil is rich in choÂlesÂterol-lowÂerÂing monounÂsatÂuÂrated fats, makÂing it a healthy addiÂtion to your diet. The key is to eat this and other caloÂrie-rich foods in modÂerÂaÂtion as part of a balÂanced meal plan.
