I still don't understand how Lee Iaccoca got connected with the company (maybe someone came to him with a business proposition and it made $$ sense to him), but as long as they're not putting motor oil from the auto assembly line into this stuff - I'm going to continue to buy it.
I looked at Benechol - and the price was too much for me - over twice the cost of the other spreads.
I'm going to stick with the Olivio for a while and see if it makes a difference in my next blood test.

Hubbles,
Yes, it sure DID go up. I used it 2 days prior to my bloodwork and I hit an astounding *50 !
Prior to this I had dismal readings on my HDL's on my cardiocheck barely hitting 40, many times in the mid 30's. It was a simple accident that I was not expecting. I just happened to use it on some warm homemade bread for 2 days straight before bloodwork not realizing that it had to be the ONLY thing that could have jarred my very swtubborn HDL's upward.
My wife agrees with me,.2 .
I actually wrote the company and told them that they should have their consumers run some tests on it.
I used it very LIBERALLY prior to my tests. Warm bread can melt and soak up alot of butter. That stuff is also good, very good, for cooking. My wife loves it.
I am goiung to try another test on my cardiocheck with it. Lenin thought I should try to duplicate the Olivio with the Cardiocheck and see if I get the same results. I ceratainly will and will let you know in this post2
Yes, it IS delicious.

P.S....I can't de;lete those stupid number 2's. Just ignore them.
