Advantage of Olive Oil – Will It Help Me to Lose My Weight

Olive oil is a basic part of the Mediterranean diet which is very beneficial for tasty and more enjoyable eating. Being the only vegetable oil that can be consumed as it is – freshly pressed from the fruit, Olife oil is a natural juice preserving the taste, aroma, vitamins and properties of the olive fruit. People who take olive oil diet notice several health benefits from olive oil.

Olive oil is an excellent source of antioxidants, capable of dousing inflammation, defending cells from menacing molecules, and much more. If taken in moderate amounts, olive oil helps in weight loss as it reduces your abdominal fat.

The mono unsaturated fat in olive oil has anti-cancer effects. Some people as an evidence to its benefits claim that olive oil helps in the cure of breast, ovarian and prostate cancer. Also a mono unsaturated fatty acid present in olive oil called Oleic acid claims to have significant protective effects against cancer. It reduces the effect of an ontogeny, a gene that turns a host cell into a cancer cell.

A normal blood pressure should not be below 120/80. And if yours come in this range then do not panic. What is olive oil for? Olive oil has the capability to reduce the need for daily meds. So, always go for extra-virgin olive oil that has the maximum number of antioxidants and heat-sensitive vitamins.

Nothing better can come to your mind other than olive oil, when it comes to your heart. Olive oil stimulates good HDL cholesterol in your heart, lowers bad LDL cholesterol, and also it reduces other harmful blood fats (triglycerides). And the list does not end here only. Olive oil also reduces inflammation, another contributor to cardiovascular disease. The latest research shows that cardiovascular diseases are the top causes of death in the industrialized world.

Heart failures are a rare thing found among those who consume olive oil. Olive oil also prevents the formation of blood clots and platelet aggregation in your body.

You might also be aware of the fact that all the oils have the same calories but olive oil is the only one that helps in weight loss. But why so? The reason is that olive oil has a fuller flavor, so less is needed for tantalizing taste. Also the recent research shows that overweight people going for a much fatty diet — including olive oil — are more likely to lose weight than those who slash fat. Now again why? Because the rich flavor of olive oil makes it easier to stick with the program.

Try adding extra virgin olive oil to your salad dressing or crisp-tender veggies, if you suffer from frequent headaches. This is because it contains oleocanthal, a natural compound that will block pain-producing and inflammatory substances and that also without causing any stomach upset. This painkiller has the capability to lower your risk for heart disease, cancer, arthritis and possibly Alzheimer.
