Andy Battaglia:
Olive oil can be used raw or for cooking. I use it both ways. Why would it harm your liver?

Umair,

I depends on the type of fat that you consume.  Certain fats are healthy for you and are in fact essential.  These are fats that are rich in Omega 3.   Small quantities of Olive oil can be healthy for you as are flax seed oil and fish oil. 

Saturated fats are harmful to the liver and the cardiovascular system - such as butter, cream and animal fats.  (Those that are solid at room temperature).

Manal:
When olive oil is overheated the unsaturated fats change and become harmful that is why it is advisible that after food is cooked it is added at the end or just before you finish cooking so as to avoid over heating. This means too that you never fry anything in olive oil and also in maize oil.

You can fry in sun flower oil
