while I respect the desire for oblivion, I just can't see the rationale in
posting relevant news, such as the one in your post, with an x-no-archive
header... that means just 7 days on Google.

My humble and friendly proposal to the X-N-A users is to keep using it on
their own comments if they want, but not on the useful pieces of
information, like news and links, they report.

A little inguenity would have helped you to find more information.

"Although its chemical structure is quite different from the anti-inflammatory
compounds in non-steroidal drugs, olive oil's anti-inflammatory component, which
Beauchamp named "oleocanthal," has a similar effect.

"A 50 gram dose (about 4 tablespoons) of extra-virgin olive oil supplies enough
oleocanthal to produce an effect equivalent to that of about 10% of the
ibuprofen dose recommended for adult pain relief.

"While this amount won't cure a headache, daily consumption of olive oil may
prevent inflammation and confer some of the benefits of long-term ibuprofen
use—without the increased risk of intestinal bleeding and damage to the kidneys
that long-term use of non-steroidal drugs like ibuprofen also carries.
