View MoreOLIVE OIL LINKED TO SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER MORTALITY by Mazin, Arkadi; Lifespan October 27th, 2022; Compared to the baseline level of consuming olive oil less than once per month, the consumption of up to one tablespoon per day was associated with a 9% lower risk of all-cause mortality. The consumption of two or more tablespoons, however, was linked to a much greater reduction in the risk of death: 31% for all-cause mortality, 46% for cardiovascular mortality, and a whopping 51% for cancer. The study included 1,567 adult participants, with an average age of 46, from the #Valencia #Nutrition Study. Their dietary habits were assessed at baseline via a questionnaire, and each participant was assigned a score from 0 to 7 designating their adherence to the #MediterraneanDiet. The score accounted for nine components: fruits (including seeds and nuts), vegetables, fish, legumes, olive oil and cereals, meat, dairy and alcohol. It obviously excluded olive oil. The researchers also controlled for age, sex, educational level, body mass index (#BMI), tobacco consumption, total hours of TV watching per day as a proxy for physical activity, and the presence of pre-existing chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension. During the follow-up period, 317 deaths were recorded, including 115 due to cardiovascular diseases and 82 due to cancer. This does not mean that the effect on cardiovascular and cancer #mortality appears abruptly after these thresholds are crossed, but rather that in this particular study, lower levels of consumption were not found to be significant A #Harvard study published earlier this year is especially noteworthy [5]. It has been conducted in the US rather than a Mediterranean country with a sample size of over 90,000 and an even longer follow-up period of up to 28 years. In that study, higher olive oil intake was associated with a 19% lower risk of cardiovascular mortality, a 17% lower risk of cancer mortality, a 29% lower risk of neurodegenerative mortality, and an 18% lower risk of respiratory mortality. Some previous studies have failed to detect an association between #oliveoil consumption and mortality. However, those studies included short follow-up periods: 4.8 years for the PREDIMED study of the #Spanish population [2] and just 44 months for the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC)-#Greek study [3]. On the other hand, the EPIC-Spain study, which had a follow-up period of 13 years, found a 26% reduction in all-cause mortality for the highest levels of olive oil consumption, which is fairly close to the 31% reported in this study [4]. This suggests that benefits from olive oil consumption accumulate over time and can reach very significant levels. Olive oil contains numerous compounds that could potentially explain its health benefits, such as monounsaturated fatty acids (#MUFA s). It is also rich in the phenolic compounds oleuropein, tyrosol, and hydroxytyrosol, which have been shown to possess antihypertensive, #antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory qualities. Some studies also suggest that oleic acid, the most abundant MUFA in olive oil, has oncoprotective (anti-#cancer) qualities [6]. https://www.lifespan.io/news/olive-oil-linked-to-significantly-lower-mortality/ #longevity

In a new study, scientists have found a strong association between olive oil consumption and lower risk of cardiovascular, cancer, and all-cause mortality.
