I love them for my fat but they're also high in sodium.

What do?

    Do you currently suffer from hypertension or have some other reason to watch your sodium? If not eat the olives

    i too suffer from the deliciousness of the green olive. i love the juice as salad dressing. the sodium is bad, but its vegetable fat & not animal fat, so i eat em. just not daily.

    No, but since I eat them daily I didn't know if it would cause a problem

    I love them, esp garlic stuffed. Like said above unless you have a strong and compelling medical reason not to eat them, enjoy them within reason. Just have a nice big glass of water to compensate for the sodium if you are worried. That is what I do anyway.
