Fight off middle-age kilos

Fight off middle-age kilos with extra virgin olive oil. A monounsaturated fat, it'll help you burn calories. In an Australian study, 12 postmenopausal women (ages 57 to 73) were given a breakfast cereal dressed either with a mixture of cream and skim milk or half an ounce of olive oil and skim milk. The women who ate the oil-laced muesli boosted their metabolism.

Don't want to add olive oil to your oatmeal? That's OK - it works just as well in salad dressings, as a bread dip, or for sauteing.
