I am of Greek decent, and I have seen people consume and feed olive oil. I dont know about a full glass of it, but one or two tablespoons a day is great for you body. It helps cleanse your intenstines and stomach, not to mention the benefits to your skin, hair and nails. Its also a natural laxative. I have used it myself, it actually works great!

That sounds absolutely disgusting.

its one spoon full a day not a glass.
so hey say it just cleans your stomach thats all .mothers use that on infants when they have a stomach aches or colics if you ask me i think its un healthy to use like that its good for cooking that all

It does not make you extra virgin.

Ive heard that before too. It has alot of health benefits.. it certainly wouldnt hurt you to do it.

gross... why would u want to live that long anyways?

Do you really want to live that long??? Drinking that much oil..probably isn't healthy.

Do you really want to live to be that old?

Um!! Mel Gibson drinks an 1oz a day!!! If you drank 8oz, omg you would be able to poo through a coffee filter!!!! Don't do it!

I really think a steady diet did a lot of the survival. Oil really is good for you, the Greek consume about 10x our amount.

one spoon every morning for better liver and kidney :)

One cup of olive oil has nearly 2000 calories in it. So if you're going to drink it, you've basically maxed out your calories for the day.

Define "glass". Was she really fat? Yeah...just include olive oil in your regular cooking.

sounds interesting

I'm pretty sure its one teaspoon of olive oil not a glass, it suppose to help keep your insides clean.

it is good natural fat that the body needs. i like hot, fresh crusty bread dipped into extra virgin olive oil...its very tasty.

frigin nasty lol

If you can stand not only drinking a full glass of that every day as well as the cost of the olive oil, you go right ahead! It's so not worth it to me.
