It contains a very high level of monounsaturated fats, most notably oleic acid, which epidemiological studies suggest may be linked to a reduction in coronary heart disease risk. There is also evidence that the antioxidants in olive oil improve cholesterol regulation and LDL cholesterol reduction, and that it has other anti-inflammatory and anti-hypertensive effects. Different parts of the Mediterranean have different eating habits which can only be described as variation on the same theme, the MEDITERRANEAN DIET, whose main ingredient is OLIVE OIL.
