King of Polyphenols: Extra Virgin Olive Oil

 

When you eat olive oil

  1. Optimize HDL, beneficial cholesterol for the body.
  2. Lower the risk of heart disease.
  3. Helps blood clot.
  4. Adjust blood sugar.
  5. Improve insulin sensitivity.
  6. Lower the risk of developing cancer.
  7. Slow the rate of cognitive decline.

 

Which olive oil should you buy?

  1. You must choose Extra Virgin. Regular olive oil has a shallow polyphenol content.
  2. No additives.

 

How should you eat?

  1. As it is unstable and easily oxidized, use it only for salads or cold sauces. When olive oil is oxidized, it produces free radicals that cause inflammation.
  2. You should minimize the exposure of olive oil to light. You have to buy the oil in a dark container.
  3. Please enjoy within 1 year from the date of purchase.

 

Don't think about frying food with oil. No matter what oil you prepare, fried food is bad for your body.
