Another point for olive oil! Reduces Cancer risk!
Here is an article on BBC News about how olive oil reduces cancer risk.
Adding plenty of olive oil to a diet could help protect against cell damage that can lead to cancer, experts say.
A study of 182 European men found those who had 25 millilitres of olive oil per day had reduced levels of a substance which indicates cell damage.
The Danish team said it may explain why many cancer rates are higher in northern Europe than the south, where olive oil is a major part of the diet.
