| Olive Oil |
Olive oil contains polyphenols,
tocopherols, antioxidants and Vitamins A, B, E and K. As a mono- unsaturated
fat, olive oil is considered to be the "good" fat, which can protect
against heart disease and more. Numerous studies have focused on the promising
role olive oil plays in maintaining a healthy diet and reducing the risk
of heart disease. Olive oil has been proven to decrease age-related mental
declines and helps rheumatoid arthritis. Adding olive oil and other monounsaturated
fats helps with cholesterol profiles. It lowers bad cholesterol (LDL cholesterol)
and raises good cholesterol (HDL). Olive oil also thins your blood and may
reduce the incidence of developing breast cancer in women. Olive oils also
contain the antioxidants beta-carotene and Vitamin E, as well as the phenolic
compounds tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol. Olive oil contains no salt and is
naturally cholesterol-free
