Is it helpful to take olive oil for upper respiratory issues? if so what's the benefits of olive oil?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
I do not recommend i: I have not heard any respiratory benefits from olive oil. It is a healthy oil for cooking...But it is a form of fat so go slow with it and only with your meals and salads.
