Should I have extra virgin olive oil daily ?

Sources:

Extra virgin olive oil can be a reasonable daily choice, but the transcripts don’t establish that you need to have it every day or prescribe a daily amount.

  • As a preferred fat: Alan Aragon says olive oil is his go-to and suggests choosing it if you enjoy it; he also emphasizes focusing on overall diet quality rather than treating oils as an all-or-nothing issue.
  • As part of a varied diet: Chris Palmer recommends a range of fats and often includes olive oil alongside avocados and nuts, with choices depending on the person.

So, having it daily is reasonable if you like it and it fits your diet, but it isn’t presented as a requirement.
