Another study made by researchers at the University of Buffalo in New York proved that ß-sitosterol, a substance found in vegetable oils such as olive oil, can help prevent the formation of prostate cancer cells. Researchers have come to the conclusion that ß-sitosterol strengthens the intracellular communication system, which orders the cells not to divide, so that cancer can be prevented without cell growth becoming uncontrolled.

In a recent study conducted by doctors at Oxford University, it was determined that olive oil has protective features against intestinal cancer. Doctors have discovered that olive oilt gets in a reaction with the gastric acid to prevent the onset of intestinal cancer. Oxford researchers have also discovered that olive oil protects the body, against abnormal cell growth and cancer, by reducing the amount of bile acid and raising the level of DAO (enzyme called diamine oxidase).  According to researchers’ reports, people who consume plenty of olive oil and vegetable, are at a reduced risk of having rheumatoid arthritis (arterial infection), a chronic join disease.

Olive oil has a balanced, polyunsaturated compound, similar to the fatty acid ratio in human milk. Olive oil is an adequate source for these essential fatty acids which cannot be obtained by the human body but has an indispensable importance. These factors, make olive oil very useful for newborn babies. Because of its contribution to the natural development of the baby’s brain and nervous system, before and after birth, the only fat recommended to mothers by experts is olive oil. Oive oil contains linoleic acid nearly as much as mothers’ milk and If you add skimmed milk to olive oil, it will gain natural nutrition too.
