Crazy Question About Using Olive Oil

[Susie in Lima 320]

If you don't like the taste of olive oil and it is available ask him if you can use grapeseed instead. It has a more neutral flavor and has most if not all the benefits of olive oil.

Oh really, I had no idea!!! I am going to have to look into that! Thanks so much for the help!

Well to be honest' date=' my bowels have been moving really well even before the oil but I am sure it will help even more now! I have IBS so I am assuming that it will help me there too. Who would have known?

Well about taking it in the Soup, I have to add 2 teaspoons full and I really can only still eat about 1/4 cup of soup so I guess I am getting a bunch...eww and I can taste it really strong.

Thanks so much! I feel real good since surgery, Having to deal with changing my thoughts about food and also just struggling with actually eating. When did you have your surgery?[/quote']

I had my surgery on 8/21. I feel good. No problems w food or liquids at all, just kinda tired.

Pinky, same here!!! And i love the Olive oil that costco puts out once a year. In the glass bottle with the harvest date. I use that for salads and stuff. The big kirkland plastic bottle i use for cooking things on low heat. Anything else I use the grapeseed for.

Sorry, OP...we kinda got off track. I bet you can get some wonderful oils where you are.

How are you feeling?

I am feeling great! I haven't really ever even thought of looking at the different types of oils although I guess with this new life/journey, I should. We are fortunate to have LOTS of great fresh fruits and veggies that are so very inexpensive so that is really nice.
