Here's some great news for all in the olive oil industry...

A book released by Harvard Medical School, the foremost medical
research institution in the world, has claimed that the well known
USDA (US Dept Ag) Food Guide Pyramid is "built on shaky scientific
ground" and "distorted by the department's mission to promote
agriculture".

It has released it's own food pyramid, claiming that the USDA's
model, which promoted breads, cereals and pasta in the "heavy use"
section of their pyramid with oils in "use sparingly"
section, is scientifically flawed.

Harvard's own pyramid puts oils (including OLIVE OIL!) at the
base of the pyramid, in the "use heavily" section. This is
fantastic news for us!

pyramid) at the OlivesOrganic website:
