A new Harvard Chan School study shows it’s the quality—not quantity—of macronutrients that make a difference for heart health, debunking myth that modulating carbohydrate and fat intake alone is inherently beneficial.

    The tuna in EVOO you buy at the supermarket here is lame. If you look at the ingredients it’s just cheap vegetable oil with a dash of EVOO, and you can bet it’s not the good EVOO.

        you’re right, it’s bullshit marketing and it sucks. The front of the tin does say “tuna in olive oil blend”, in fairness. All the other brands are the same / similar.

        If it was real, pure olive oil it would cost more.

        I just buy the stuff packed in spring water, drain it, and pour olive oil over it.

            Yeah, there’s a lot to good EVOO.

            Here i wouldnt really trust anything I can get from the supermarket, and certainly not anything imported.

            The health benefits diminish significantly over time.

            So the “best before” date might be 2 years, but if you want the health benefits then every month counts. Also the time spent in contact with air.
