adding olive oil to beverly protein shakes

I have been adding about 2 tablespoons of whipping cream to couple of my UMP protein shakes. Question is, would replacing the whipping cream with another fat source, say olive oil, achieve similar purpose.

My only concern with continuing to use the whipping cream is the amount of saturated fat that it contains. Appreciate any advice in advance.

Olive oil is totally acceptable, as are flax oil and macadamia oil.

There is a testosterone production advantage with the saturated fat in cream.

If limiting carbs the extra saturated fat is not necessarily unhealthy.

The high fat diet was recently studied in Journal of the American Medical Association and shown to have favorable effects on cholesterol, blood pressure and other markers generally thought to worsen from fat intake.

although olive oil would ruin the taste of a tasty bev shake id go with mac nut in them or almond oil/butter
