In fact, certain types of fats may actually contribute to a healthy diet for weight loss or help prevent diseases such as heart disease and cancer. Olive oil, for example, has been a staple of the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diets for centuries, and research is showing that it&#8217;s not just good for your taste buds: it&#8217;s also good for your overall health. In this article, we&#8217;ll review the olive oil diet.\u00a0 We&#8217;ll also take a look at the potential health benefits of olive oil, including its ability to promote weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Olive_Oil_Diet_For_Weight_Loss\" target=\"_blank\"><video autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"muted\" playsinline=\"playsinline\" width=\"777\"><source src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/ezgif.com-gif-to-mp4-2.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\" \/><\/video><\/a>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_The_Olive_Oil_Diet\"><\/span><strong>What Is The Olive Oil Diet?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The olive oil diet has several different names, all referring to <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/pescatarian-vs-vegetarian\/\">eating foods<\/a> that naturally contain or are high in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) like olive oil. The Mediterranean diet is probably the best-known example of a MUFA-rich eating plan; it calls for consuming whole grains, beans, vegetables, fruits, and other healthy fats like those found in fish and nuts. Research suggests that following a MUFA-rich diet may help prevent heart disease and cancer, causing many people to incorporate more foods with this type of fat into their diets (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4879159\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some versions of the olive oil diet recommend eating at least 25% of your daily calories in MUFA-rich foods like olive oil. Others call for consuming half of your daily calories (50%) in this form. Unlike other diets, the olive oil diet doesn&#8217;t exclude certain foods; but it does make recommendations about eating more or less of certain kinds of foods to promote weight loss or better overall health. Here&#8217;s how it works:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_The_Olive_Oil_Diet_Work\"><\/span><strong>How Does The Olive Oil Diet Work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The olive oil diet is similar to low-carb diets like Atkins and South Beach because it takes aim at carbohydrates, which are blamed for causing hunger pangs and weight gain (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3257742\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/what-is-a-calorie-deficit\/\">Low-carb diets<\/a> all work by reducing carbohydrate intake so that the body turns instead to stored fat for fuel resulting in weight loss and reduced fat tissue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To follow the olive oil diet, you need to cut back on foods high in carbohydrates like breads, pastas, potatoes, and snack foods. That means saying goodbye to most added sugars too &#8211; sweet treats are off-limits during the diet. But don&#8217;t worry: Research suggests that low-carb diets may help people lose weight (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/healthy-lifestyle\/weight-loss\/in-depth\/low-carb-diet\/art-20045831\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea behind the olive oil diet is simple: By replacing caloric, carbohydrate-rich foods with MUFA-rich ones, you can achieve a calorie deficit, leading to weight loss. The diet doesn&#8217;t call for any complicated calorie counting or tracking, and there&#8217;s no limit on portion sizes as long as you&#8217;re sticking to MUFA rich foods like olive oil.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/does-coconut-oil-break-a-fast\/\">Does Coconut Oil Break a Fast or Help Secure Your Fasting Success?<\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Olive_Oil_Diet_For_Weight_Loss\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-33107 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4911-1024x576.png\" alt=\"olive oil diet\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4911.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4911-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4911.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Frame-4911.png 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Olive_Oil_Can_I_Add_To_My_Diet\"><\/span><strong>How Much Olive Oil Can I Add To My Diet?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In general, you want to add olive oil to your diet <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/hormonal-belly-woman\/\">in moderation<\/a>. That means more is not always better: In fact, too much olive oil on a regular basis can lead to weight gain because it is energy dense (<a href=\"https:\/\/bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com\/articles\/10.1186\/1741-7015-12-78\">8<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more active you are, the more calories you&#8217;ll need, including from healthy fats like olive oil. For example, if you&#8217;re going for a run after work, adding a tablespoon of olive oil to a salad for dinner probably won&#8217;t make a big difference in terms of calorie intake since it only adds about 120 calories.\u00a0 But if you&#8217;re not particularly active, those 120 calories could make a big difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, some people may benefit from adding more olive oil to their diets while cutting back on carbohydrates and sugars. Doing so can help reduce blood sugar levels and promote <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/1200-calorie-diet-meal-plan-14-days\/\">weight loss<\/a>, especially for those with diabetes or prediabetes (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5877547\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Consult your doctor before making any dietary changes, including for the olive oil diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just adding olive oil to your diet isn&#8217;t enough to make you lose weight. You&#8217;ll still need to eat fewer calories than the number of calories you burn every day. Over time, this deficit results in weight loss &#8211; just as it does with low-carb diets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Olive_Oil_Diet_For_Weight_Loss\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32170 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600-1024x576.png\" alt=\"fitness app\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600-1636x920.png 1636w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Frame-4600.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_Some_Healthy_Ways_To_Use_Olive_Oil\"><\/span><strong>What Are Some Healthy Ways To Use Olive Oil?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As with any type of fat, it&#8217;s important to choose your cooking oils wisely when following the olive oil <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/1200-calorie-deficit\/\">diet<\/a>. When heated over high heat, oils like corn and peanut can release harmful free radicals that promote chronic diseases like cancer; extra virgin olive oil has a higher smoke point, but it&#8217;s still best to cook with low to moderate heat if possible (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/healthcare\/cooking-with-vegetable-oil-releases-toxic-chemicals-linked-to-cancer-20151108-gktips.html\">2<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To follow the diet correctly, use olive oil in place of butter or canola oil whenever possible.

That means sticking within your daily caloric goal and limiting serving sizes since every tablespoon contains about 120 calories.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also keep an eye on how your body responds. When eaten in excess, any energy-dense foods can lead to weight gain and health problems. Plus, since they don&#8217;t have any fiber or protein, they may leave you feeling hungry shortly after you eat them if you&#8217;re used to having carbs as part of the meal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Bottom_Line\"><\/span><strong>The Bottom Line<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Olive oil is one of many healthy foods that can help slim your waistline &#8211; but eating too much can lead to weight gain. Just remember, the most effective diet is one you&#8217;re likely to stick with for life. So focus on adding more nutritious foods like olive oil into your daily routine instead of trying quick-fix fad diets or weight-loss plans. If you want to trim down without sacrificing your favorite dishes, make small swaps like using a spray bottle to add your oil to your food when cooking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&#038;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Olive_Oil_Diet_For_Weight_Loss\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Gif_Blue-1.gif\" alt=\"BetterMe\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Create Happines now\" width=\"770\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xLxjdQ4DYdg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.

The Mediterranean diet is probably the best-known example of a MUFA-rich eating plan; it calls for consuming whole grains, beans, vegetables, fruits, and other healthy fats like those found in fish and nuts. Research suggests that following a MUFA-rich diet may help prevent heart disease and cancer, causing many people to incorporate more foods with this type of fat into their diets (<\/span><a href=\\\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4879159\/\\\"><span style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\">).<\/span>\\r\\n\\r\\n<span style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\">Some versions of the olive oil diet recommend eating at least 25% of your daily calories in MUFA-rich foods like olive oil. Others call for consuming half of your daily calories (50%) in this form.

In fact, certain types of fats may actually contribute to a healthy diet for weight loss or help prevent diseases such as heart disease and cancer. Olive oil, for example, has been a staple of the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diets for centuries, and research is showing that it's not just good for your taste buds: it's also good for your overall health. In this article, we'll review the olive oil diet.\u00a0 We'll also take a look at the potential health benefits of olive oil, including its ability to promote weight loss.<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What Is The Olive Oil Diet?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The olive oil diet has several different names, all referring to <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/pescatarian-vs-vegetarian\/\">eating foods<\/a> that naturally contain or are high in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) like olive oil. The Mediterranean diet is probably the best-known example of a MUFA-rich eating plan; it calls for consuming whole grains, beans, vegetables, fruits, and other healthy fats like those found in fish and nuts. Research suggests that following a MUFA-rich diet may help prevent heart disease and cancer, causing many people to incorporate more foods with this type of fat into their diets (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4879159\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some versions of the olive oil diet recommend eating at least 25% of your daily calories in MUFA-rich foods like olive oil. Others call for consuming half of your daily calories (50%) in this form. Unlike other diets, the olive oil diet doesn't exclude certain foods; but it does make recommendations about eating more or less of certain kinds of foods to promote weight loss or better overall health.
