Thanks for your fascinating posts on the subject of olive oil. I give Mom olive oil as one of two sources of oleic acid. I also give her flaxseed oil, as I can at least count on the oleic acid content described on the bottle. I felt as if I was flying in the dark when trying to decide on an amount of olive oil sufficient to provide any therapeutic level of oleic acid for it's reported synergystic effect when used with Herceptin.
