EngagementModerate engagement

Many users comment with specific references to the data and implications, such as 'I am using extra virgin olive oil' or 'clinical trial data suggests...', demonstrating active engagement and deeper interest.

ImpactHigh impact

Discussion of the study's potential to influence dietary habits and health outcomes signals a perceived significant impact, with some mentioning how it could inform clinical or personal decisions about olive oil consumption.

Abstract in brief

  • The study examined whether eating more olive oil, especially extra virgin, can lower the risk of heart disease and death in people at high cardiovascular risk, using data from the PREDIMED trial that followed over 7,200 adults aged 55-80 for about 4 years.
  • Results showed that those with the highest intake of total olive oil and extra virgin olive oil had about a 35-39% lower risk of cardiovascular events compared to those who ate less, and increased consumption was linked to a reduced risk of death from cardiovascular causes.
  • Overall, increasing olive oil, particularly extra virgin, in the diet was associated with significant protective effects against heart disease and mortality among individuals already at high risk.]

Higher baseline olive oil consumption was associated with 48% reduced risk of cardiovascular mortality in PREDIMED subjects. For each 10 g/d increase in extra-virgin olive oil consumption, CVD and mortality risk decreased by 10% and 7%, respectively. https://t.co/nV4hWg2IeU

@JariJMakkonen Ravinnon rasvoilla on paljon vaikutusta terveyteen. Tässä espanjalaisessa havainnoivassa tutkimuksessa havaittiin, että niillä tutkittavilla, jotka käyttivät tutkimuksen alkaessa eniten oliiviöljyä, oli 48 prosenttia pienempi riski kuolla sydäntauteihin. https://t.co/Oz0xNKjNYY
