It contains oleic acid, an antioxidant that helps prevent oxidation during cooking, making it a healthier option even at medium heat. For optimal health benefits, consuming two to three tablespoons daily is recommended, adjusting based on overall caloric intake. A surprising tip reveals that marinating meat in olive oil can reduce carcinogenic compounds formed during grilling.
