Ask your doctor to make this useful to you by explaining EXACTLY how replacing dairy fat with olive oil helps you, because I'm seeing research suggesting dairy fat is good for you. Your doctor should know more than me since I'm not medically trained. No explanation, then you don't have a useful doctor.
Eating more olive oil linked to longer life span

Consuming a small amount of olive oil every day may help you live longer, according to an observational study.
Researchers looked at health data from about 90,000 people over a period of nearly 30 years. Participants were free of heart disease and cancer and completed dietary questionnaires every four years. They were asked how often, on average, they ate specific foods, including types of fats and oils.
The results showed that those who consumed more than ½ tablespoon of olive oil per day (more than 7 grams) had a 19% lower risk of dying from any cause than those who rarely or never had olive oil. Looking at specific conditions, the researchers found the olive oil group also had a 19% lower risk of cardiovascular disease, a 17% lower risk of dying from cancer, and a 29% lower risk of dying from a neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer’s disease.
Advancements for Improving Health Outcomes
Quality and Safety in Clinical Operations is a Harvard Medical School course being held in a live virtual format from June 8-10, 2022. This Continuing Education course will focus on ways to identify gaps and develop successful, sustainable, scalable interventions that lead to improved outcomes. You will leave this course with a pathway to review your institution’s current program and identify ways to advance strategically and tactically to impact outcomes. Lessons learned from the COVID-19 will be highlighted, including the need to aggressively advance our institutional approach to equity.

They estimated that replacing 10 grams per day of fats like margarine, butter, and mayonnaise with the same amount of olive oil could lower the risk of overall death and disease by as much as 34%. The study was published online Jan. 12, 2022, by the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
