Speaking on this occasion, Dalmia said that Leonardo Olive Oil Celebrity Cook-Out was a unique initiative, aimed at creating awareness about olive oil as a cooking medium. “Today, olive oil is considered the cornerstone of health and wellness the world over. It has brought about the high-life expectancy and low rates of cardio-vascular disease in the Mediterranean people. With high levels of mono-unsaturated “good” fats, low saturated “bad” fats and a high content of Vitamins A,D,E,K,B and other anti-oxidants, olive oil is universally accepted as the healthiest of all edible oils.”
