is it healthy to drink olive oil?

Olive oil is a healthy fat. The important thing is it must be taken in the right form. Use cold pressed virgin oil and use it raw, NEVER cooked/fried. Pour some olive oil onto your salad, rice or any food... It is VERY healthy, packed with nutrients. Eat it raw with food, but do not drink it.

No? Drinking fat is definitely not healthy...

Well everyone always says its real healthy, and I heard somewhere that it was healthy to drink it

and its not fat.. lol

olive OIL. Oil is fat...

per 100g Total Fat of olive oil = 100g

Olive oil has lots of omega fats (3,6,9), helps lower bad cholesterol, and gives you plenty of antioxidants. But it is a fat, like ty said 100g of olive oil, gives you 100g of fat.

Liquid fat, oil, isn't the same as solid fat. Often it won't even end up in your tummy, unless you get excessive amounts, and then only after the body spends some effort converting it b/c again it's not the same. It's good for you since it provides omega 6 essential fatty acids but it's hard to digest if you just down a bunch of it. Why not prepare some food with it? Eat fish regularly to provide omega 3 fatty acids to balance it out. Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids are required as a structural component for cell membranes, skin, hair and other things.
