Health Benefits of Olive Oil for all
Before starting my article I will like to say a few words about health.
"Every human being is the author of his own health or disease."
"He, who has health, has hope. And he, who has hope, has everything."
"It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver."
Why Olive Oil
"Italians...seemed never to die. They eat olive oil all day long...and that's what does it."
As said by William Kennedy in the praise of olive oil.
Being the most desired exponent of monounsaturated fat, olive oil is the essential component of the exquisite and luscious Mediterranean Diet. While the real taste, aroma, vitamins, characteristics and sometimes even colour of the fruit is preserved, olive oil is basically a form of juice and is the only vegetable oil that can be consumed in its almost raw state of existence because it is freshly pressed from the fruit. Welcome to the healthy world of never-ending goodness of the king of all types of oil, olive oil.
Why is olive oil beneficial?
The content of monounsaturated fatty acids and antioxidative substances is considerably high in olive oil which makes it the most desired ingredient of the entire line of healthy cuisine. Studies have shown that olive oil controls LDL cholesterol levels and raises HDL cholesterol levels, thus preventing numerous diseases. Olive oil is the only oil which is naturally produced along with the incomparable amount of monounsaturated fat which majorly comprises of oleic acid.
In general, all types of olive oil are sources of monounsaturated fat but extra virgin olive oil which is derived from the first pressing of the olives, contains higher levels of antioxidants, particularly vitamin E and phenols, because it is less processed.
The active secretion of bile and pancreatic hormones due to the consumption of olive oil is quite appreciable and leads to the lowering of the possibilities of gallstone formation within the body. Moreover, the stomach of the human body tolerates the olive oil with utmost smoothness making it as the most desirable of all the food ingredients.
Benefits of olive oil
The olive oil brings lot of goodness to human health. It is highly recommended for people who are suffering from various kinds of heart diseases. Olive oil maintains the balance between omega 6 and omega 3 and most of the fatty acids in olive oil are actually in the form of omega-9 oil which is monounsaturated. The oil has been reported to have a great protective effect on ulcers and gastritis.
According to a Spanish research, patients of colon cancer highly benefit from olive oil and therefore this oil must be included in their regular diet.
Prescribed consumption of olive oil
According to the studies related to health, consumption of 25 milliliters to about 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil on daily basis for 1 week resulted in less oxidation levels of LDL cholesterol and higher levels of antioxidant compounds which is quite remarkable and assists in the healing of various diseases.
