That seems to be the common idea and what I've found as well.

Both offer benefits and you can really choose whichever one suits you the best. It is nice to have more options and to know that olive oil isn't the be all end all.

I have no preference actually. I can do well with either, avocado or olive oil. But I use olive oil, only because it is easier to find in supermarkets. It is available everywhere and I don’t really see much of the avocado oil. Since their health benefits are the same, either one will be fine with me. I like to eat avocado fruit so if there is a taste in the oil, I guess I won’t mind at all.

In reply to isaac. It really does come down to personal preference. Some people will prefer one type over the other. I imagine that you would get the best benefits by using both but either one is a great addition to a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Hi Vince. I’ve never thought there is anything like avocado oil before lol! I’ve known the fruit and enjoy smoothies made with avocado but this avocado oil is totally new to me.

I definitely agree that avocado has a strong flavour in them and in my opinion that could be a deciding factor , since based on your comprehensive comparison there’s not much difference between them =)

Avocado oil is relatively uncommon, at least when compared to options like olive oil. But, it is getting popular and you can find it on Amazon as well.

I talked about the flavor differences in the article but yes, the flavor is likely to vary somewhat based on variety of avocado as well.

You can use avocado oil for the same foods as olive oil. In fact, avocado oil tends to be more often recommended for cooking – although you can use either.

Great information here. I am a big fan and promoter of olive oil, avocados, fish oil, coconut oil and all healthy fats. I haven’t tried avocado oil yet, but have been wanting to for awhile now. I can never find it in my grocery stores and now I have found a place to get some. I am excited to try it. Does it have avocado type taste? Do you use it to cook with the same food you do olive oil?
