Is your olive oil really healthy for you?
When was the last time you used olive oil and could actually feel your body thanking you?
Yes, olive oil is healthy but only when you get REAL, FRESH, and UNTAINTED olive oil. And trust me, most people have no idea what real, fresh-pressed, nutrient-dense olive oil even tastes like. It’s not just a true culinary experience, your body can FEEL the difference.
EVOO: More Than a Trend
EVOO isn’t just a fashionable ingredient; it can be a key contributor to wellness, recognized by Harvard Medical School and the Mayo Clinic for its remarkable health benefits. It’s a staple in the Mediterranean diet, known for promoting longevity and fitting perfectly into paleo and keto diets due to its delicious, zero-carb profile.
A Closer Look at Health Benefits
Did you know that EVOO can be a game-changer for your heart health? It’s proven to lower bad cholesterol, significantly cutting the risk of heart disease and stroke. But the benefits don’t stop there. EVOO plays a role in cancer prevention, particularly in combating breast, prostate, and colon cancers.
For anyone struggling with joint pain or arthritis, EVOO can be a blessing. Its anti-inflammatory properties provide relief without the side effects often associated with medication.
And let’s talk about brain health — studies, including one from Temple University, have shown EVOO’s effectiveness in protecting the brain, enhancing memory, and reducing the risks associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
Beyond these, EVOO lowers blood pressure, aids in diabetes prevention, and improves bone health by enhancing calcium absorption. Its rich content of antioxidants and polyphenols also helps regulate your immune system, boost energy, balance hormones, and improve skin health.
If Your Olive Oil Faking? The Hidden Risks of Low-Quality Olive Oils
Navigating the world of olive oil can be tricky, especially when it comes to quality. The majority of the olive oils you buy at the stores are actually stale or rancid olive oil, and there is much corruption in the olive oil industry leading to many olive oils being diluted with inflammatory, disease-causing cheap seed oils. Not only that, it’s almost guaranteed that the olive oil you use now lacks the full nutritional value that real, fresh-pressed EVOO delivers. These oils undergo oxidation, leading to an increase in harmful free radicals causing inflammation, brain fog, and a host of other serious health conditions over time.
Olive oil is at its peak within six months of pressing, but most often the absence of harvest dates on labels makes it difficult to determine the oil’s freshness.
Tips for Choosing the Right EVOO
When shopping for EVOO, prioritize freshness. There are currently only a couple of companies here in the U.S. that actually sell real, fresh-pressed olive oils and you can’t find these on the store shelves.
I personally have my favorite that our clients have also been using for years. The olives purchased for these amazing olive oils are located around the world by a few dedicated producers who bypass the corrupted distribution system commonly found in grocery store products and instead offer their harvest-fresh olive oils directly to you.
Let me introduce you to Fresh Pressed Olive Oil, owned by T.J. Robinson. I know T.J. because a while back, he sent me a sample bottle of his amazing olive oil and asked me to try it. It blew me away and now our entire family, extended family, all our friends, and our clients all use it because they too were blown away at the first taste. He delivers — direct to your door — the best artisanal olive oils straight from honorable, award-winning family farms around the world. And he does it right at harvest time when the olive oils are at their peak of flavor and nutritional value.
Embrace High-Quality EVOO
I highly recommend adding a good quality EVOO to your life. It’s so much more than just enhancing your meals — it’s about investing in your health. From supporting heart health and reducing inflammation to boosting cognitive function, the benefits are many.
And for fun, try exploring artisanal olive oils. An artisanal oil has its unique flavor profile — some are bold and spicy, perfect for potent dishes, while others are gentle and delicate, ideal for lighter meals. The best place (and least expensive) that I’ve found is with Fresh Pressed Olive Oil. Trust me, your taste buds and your body will thank you!
