    I have great news for you, olive oil makes it so that your body more readily accepts cancer-fighting nutrients from vegetables.

    One of the beneficial effects of olive oil is that it improves the bioavailability of lipophilic compounds such as carotenoids by acting as a food excipient, and enhances nutrient extraction and bioaccessibility

    I don’t know how much oil you were imagining but I recommend 1tsp to 1tbsp to coat your pan.

    And salt is not inherently bad for you, in fact you need it in your diet for good cardiovascular health:

    …the risk of adverse health outcomes increases when sodium intakes exceeds 5 g/day or is below 3 g/day.
