My sister told us how great Olive Oil can be.. she mentioned how this oil can make you slimmer because it makes the bad fats into good fats. Well, I still have to research about it..but I am trying, I believe there’s nothing wrong if I do. Judging from the way she look now, I think it really has a great effect on her body. Today was the first day I took a spoon of Olive Oil and we will see how my body will react. I am just afraid because I do not know where I can place it.. I bought a big one, makes me wish I have a wine chiller, I mean wine box or wine holder to put this, to prevent the kids from breaking it.
The health benefits of olive oil are due to the high content of monounsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant substances. Given my Mediterranean background, I can tell you its is a food favored of our culture. Studies have shown that Mediterranean’s have a lower rate of Heart disease than anywhere in the Western World. The best variety of olive oil is the least processed variety known as “Extra Virgin”
