🧵 is olive oil good for you?

i recently saw a youtube video about seed oils and the importance of DHA. i thought the seed oil seethe was schizo but apparently it's not, so i started taking omega 3 fish oil supplement.
now there was another video about counterfeit olive oil and how the legit extra virgin olive oil supposedly tastes really good and is healthy to consume. bryan johnson of project blueprint whose aim is to extend his lifespan supposedly has extra virgin olive oil with high polyphenol content as one of the most important things to take as a supplement. in my country there's a brand that has been tested by third party labs and third party taste tests and it seems really legit but is it really beneficial to ingest for the health benefits alone?
other things i take besides fish oil are a mutlivitamin with 150% RDA of most things, 10000 IU vitamin D3, 1000 mcg vitamin B12, 250 mg magnesium. i drink a lot of coffee every day which is actually healthy and lowers your mortality rate according to a youtube video.

Yes high polyphenol extra virgin olive oil in the right amounts daily seems to be good for you regardless of diet

then there's olive leaf extract instead of just plain olives, 450 mg per capsule with 40% oleuropein the manufacturer claims

Olives need to be fermented to be digestible. The oil is for cooking, which you can't use olives themselves for.
We found a decent cold pressed brand called Grazza. Pretty good so far.

ok nice, i stopped taking aromatase inhibitors because i'm not a /fit/fag any more and the most commonly used aromatase inhibitors are expensive or not readily available, perhaps illegal
>Oleuropein in OLE increases GnRH and testosterone secretion [8, 9]. In addition, the acidic compounds in OLE inhibit the activity of the aromatase enzyme which consequently increases androgens (testosterone and dihydrotestosterone) in the body [10, 11].

lol i forgot to mention i also take shilajit, a liquid extract that i put in my coffee. it's kinda expensive but i got a bunch via a pricing mistake in my country. i don't really understand what it's doing, there was a lot of skepticism from people when i googled it. the quality varies but some brands get rave reviews, it gives them more energy than coffee and the effect is definitely noticeable and not placebo. i wonder if it's laced with drugs. bryan johnson the blueprint guy takes ashwagandha although not shilajit.

>Regards the Lead content and based on Mountaindrop's own lab report, taking 200mg of Shilajit will include 74 micrograms of Lead. World Health Org says you want to keep Lead under 5 micrograms on the daily

>The lab analysis of our Natural Shilajit Resin shows 1.62 ppm of arsenic and 1.07 ppm of lead. These figures are not only compliant with regulatory standards but are also significantly lower than the maximum allowable limits for dietary supplements. For context, the European Commission Regulation (EU) 2021/1317 states a maximum level of 3.0 ppm for lead in food supplements, which is almost three times higher than the level found in our products.
>To put this into perspective, let's consider common foods that are part of our daily diet. Certain fish, for example, can contain higher levels of mercury, while rice is known to absorb arsenic naturally from water and soil.

the redditor seems to have gotten this wrong, i'm not finding info about a 5 microgram daily limit
this is per kg body weight and it's just stating normal exposure not that it's an upper limit:
>In average adult consumers, lead dietary exposure ranges from 0.36 to 1.24, up to 2.43 µg/kg body weight (b.w.) per day in high consumers in Europe.

A lot of the oil is counterfeit, even expensive ones. You cannot taste the difference between first cold pressed oil and the fake stuff, they add a lot of stuff to make it taste real.

These are the obvious issues in the methodology.
I agree more research should be done based on this preliminary study, but this is not the kind of evidence that should be trusted to build dietary and supplementary regimens off of.

a manufacturer in my country has different tiers with different EPA/DHA percentages, the most expensive one which is still decently priced with multi-pack discount and considering it has more DHA claims to be made from wild-caught fish from clean waters around the coasts of south america. they also have cold-pressed oil from microalgae and sunflower as a vegan option, iirc algae are less likely to acoomulate pollutants since they're at the bottom of the food chain.

Omega-3 in flaxseed oil is de-facto free, when I consider on what bullshit I spend money, it's cheap, and beneficial. Highly recommended.
