What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that adding olives to a daily diet helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels in young adults.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy college students, so results may not apply to the general population. The intervention is only 5 weeks long, so long-term benefits are unknown.
