If Olive oil can kill 8 strains of H poyrli (spirochetes) and maintain its action in the stomach despite the high acidity this is a wonderful finding. Look on the internet olive oil kills H. poyrli. It is low carb, will not make you diabetic, stops LDL from oxidising, provide energy when your on a lean meat/fish/ vegetable diet. Doesn't have the hormones in. It helps the gut, stops colon cancer from being established. Olive, Olive oil: Health and disease. Connie & Avril, thanks!
