A Neutral Fat

a: Olive oil ~
b: the Switzerland of fats

What: "Olive oil is like the Switzerland of fats, because its impact on omega-3s is neutral. When you use olive oil as the primary fat in your diet, it helps to displace omega-6 fats. Olive oil is a well-established staple in the Mediterranean diet and a favorite among chefs for its culinary properties." This is a good explanation of how there are good fats and not so good fats.
