It seems to me a Naples pizza is made with hard, high-protein
flour and while it is squirted with a bit of olive oil it is not
very greasy, having only a moderate amount of cheese on it.
There's nothing particularly unhealthy about it.

By comparison most American pizzas are calorie bombs, and
have lots of processed ingredients.
