As we grow old, we tend to develop ulcers as well. Not if you are taking extra-virgin olive oil.
An experiment found out that extra-virgin olive oil can destroy ulcer-causing bacteria (Helicobacter pylori) and may have been due to the oil's high polyphenols content.
So while scientists are not yet sure how much, they suggest a couple of teaspoons daily. As the mechanics would say, nothing beats a well-oiled machine!
