Olive oil is a great cooking oil which is composed of primarily oleic acid (resistant to high heat). However, olive oil is great, it doesn't contain any omega fatty acids. If you're looking to add oil to your diet, choose borage, flaxseed oil, or even evening primrose oil as these contain either omega-3s or omega-6s, both of which are essential. Fat, per se, doens't make you fat. Some fats can actually help during weight loss.

Never really tried looking for borage or primrose. Syl429, basically, are you looking for a cooking oil or other? -------------- **_Robert_** Pain is temporary; glory is forever!
