The BEST Oil

Transcript

Josh

And by far the number one oil used in the Axe household, that I prescribe and recommend to every patient I have for the most part, is extra virgin olive oil. This was an oil that was prized by Roman culture. It is the foundation of the Mediterranean diet. It's at the foundation of a biblical diet like the biblio diet. It has been prized throughout the Middle East for thousands of years. And if you compare any oil out there against olive oil, it will lose. It is the most studied, it's the most defensible, and has the greatest health benefits out there. And not only is it the backbone of the healthiest historic diets, it improves longevity, decreases mortality, improves heart health, improves brain health, reduces inflammation, supports metabolic health, has anti-cancer properties. It is the one oil that you want to be using predominantly all the time.
