Quote from R. Raskolnikov:
"According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), consuming about 2 tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil a day may reduce your risk of heart disease. Recent studies have suggested that the bulk of olive oil's heart-healthy benefits comes from good fatty acids (monounsaturated fatty acids), but researchers say polyphenols may also contribute to those benefits and further reduce the risk of heart disease."

Quote from R. Raskolnikov:
Those who DO NOT eat fats are definitely worse off. Fats are essential, but like everything else, taken in moderation.
