In Episode 149<\/a> of the Fit Mother Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with T.J. Robinson, founder of the Fresh-Pressed Olive Oil Club and globally known as The Olive Oil Hunter, to uncover the hidden truths about the most-used oil in our kitchens: olive oil.<\/span><\/p>\n

T.J. has traveled across the globe, from remote groves in Chile to the mountains of Spain, in search of the freshest, most flavorful, and most nutrient-rich olive oils on the planet.
