Drinking olive oil

I have seen many people who claim to drink katcha olive oil and they say it does nothing bad, its only useful.

i know the pure extra virgin olive oil is harmless for health and does not contain any bad fats, but drinking it seems a bit disgusting.

Does anyone know here of any benefits of drinking olive oil?

Re: Drinking olive oil

It is true olive oil is good for having not so bad of fat/choleterol compared to other kind of oils. Coconut oil is perhaps the worst besides Ghee or Lard. Other good oil is Canola, perhaps better than oilve oil as far as I remember reading its contents. Sunflower oil is somewhere in middle.

Anyhow, what is the point of drinking it and excessive amount negates any benefit in terms of losing or keeping the weight.
