Question 2

can marinating skinless boneless chicken in olive oil add calories?

Yes: Oils add calories although exactly how much depends on the quantity of olive oil used and how long the marinating takes. In order words, how many calories I have no idea.

Calories: There are about 32.5 calories in one ounce of skinless chicken thighs and 120 calories in a tbsp. of olive oil. So it depends on much chicken and how much olive oil is used.

Question 5

heard youre supposed to eat good foods like avocado, olive oil, etc. but those are high in calories? is it better to watch cal intake or eat healthfat

Accepted Answer

Healthy fats in mod.: Avocado is an extremely healthy food- see http://tinyurl.com/3afn8ap
Olive oil is healthier than most other oils but its benefits are exaggerated- see http://tinyurl.com/kj8rim
One should not avoid a healthy food just because it is a good source of healthy fats. The question of a low-fat vs. low carb diet is complex but one should choose healthy fats &amp; healthy carbs. See http://tinyurl.com/nq4sx63

Question 6

i add oil on vegetables to make my salad. which one is better for health, olive oil or sunflower oil?

Accepted Answer

Avoid Canola Oil: The way it is processed and can be genetically engineered.  It's from the rapeseed, a variant of mustard.  Olive oil is much better than sunflower oil.  In general, avoid vegetable oils and run from corn oil, another gmo.  Yes, you can fry w/olive oil.  Peace and good health.

Question 7

havent poo'd in 3 days. if i have one tbsp of olive oil tonight will i poo in the morning? scared to take it in the morning as i have work..

Accepted Answer

No one can say: Are you uncomfortable?  If not, then relax.  Everything will be ok.  If you have abdominal pain or distention, then increasing water intake, eating high fiber foods and getting moderate amounts of exercise help everything.  If you are still uncomfortable after that try foods like prunes.  Coffee helps some people.  Olive oil may help, so may stool softeners over the counter.

Question 8

hello !
i have a normal digestion system, i would go at least twice to the toilet, but few days ago it just got complicated,three days in a row i had no digestion and i drink one tbl spoon of olive oil and it helped but after that same problem...

Accepted Answer

Sounds confusing but: If asking about constipation, each person with constipation needs to be sure there is no other disease causing it. If constipation is just due to slow movement of the food and poop through the gut, then the things to try are vegetables, water, prune juice, prunes, fiber-with-water, polyethylene glycol, Senokot or other senna, milk of magnesia, other laxatives... A doctor can evaluate and help too.

Question 9

should olive oil be used for body massage of one month old baby in winter season?

Accepted Answer

Probably OK: It is not something I have recommended.  I don't see a problem with it, as long as you don't drop the slippery baby.

Question 10

i massaged my newborn with extra virgin olive oil for one week and  her complexion has changed from fair to dark. can she become fair again?

Accepted Answer

Not likely: Newborns start out with little pigment in their skin since they're not exposed to sunlight until birth. After birth, pigment production begins according to genetics to whatever coloration was programmed by the genes.  The olive oil had nothing to do with the pigmentation.  The "fair" skin was a newborn thing and won't return.
