1. Promotes blood circulation:
Olive oil can prevent arteriosclerosis and its complications, high blood pressure, heart disease, heart failure, kidney failure, and cerebral hemorrhage.
2. Improves digestive system function:
Olive oil contains higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids than any other vegetable oil, as well as abundant fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamins A, D, E, F, and K, and carotene, and antioxidants. It also contains no cholesterol, making it highly digestible and absorbable by the human body.
It can reduce stomach acid, prevent gastritis and duodenal ulcers, and stimulate bile secretion, enhance pancreatic enzyme activity, degrade fats, and allow them to be absorbed by the intestinal mucosa, thereby reducing the occurrence of cholecystitis and gallstones.
3. Protects the skin:
Olive oil is rich in squalene and essential fatty acids, which have excellent skin affinity, are quickly absorbed, and effectively maintain skin elasticity and moisture.
Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, vitamins E, K, A, and D, as well as phenolic antioxidants. It can eliminate facial wrinkles, prevent skin aging, and has skin and hair care benefits, as well as prevent and treat chapped hands and feet. It is a beauty and skin care product that can be "eaten". In addition, applying olive oil to the skin can fight ultraviolet rays and prevent skin cancer.
4. Improve endocrine system function:
Olive oil can improve the body's metabolic function. Currently, olive oil has become the best edible oil for preventing and controlling diabetes.
5. Benefits to the skeletal system:
The natural antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids in olive oil help the body absorb minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and zinc, which can promote bone growth. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids help maintain bone density and reduce osteoporosis caused by free radicals.
6. Anti-cancer effects:
Because olive oil is rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, the omega-3 fatty acids in the polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce the amount of linoleic acid extracted from the blood by cancer cells, thus depriving cancer cells of a much-needed nutrient.
7. Radiation protection:
Because olive oil contains polyphenols and polysaccharides, it also has anti-radiation properties, so it is often used to make food for astronauts.
Frequent computer users regard it as an excellent product for health and skin care.
8. Making baby food:
Based on its composition and digestibility, olive oil is the most suitable oil for infants. It promotes the growth and development of infants' nerves and bones, is an excellent nutrient for pregnant women and a growth promoter for the fetus, and is a good tonic for postpartum and breastfeeding mothers.
9. Anti-aging:
Among the many components of olive oil, carotene and chlorophyll give it its yellow-green color. Chlorophyll plays a role in metabolism, promoting cell growth and accelerating wound healing. It also helps to beautify one's appearance and reduce the formation of wrinkles.
Experiments have shown that the antioxidants in olive oil can eliminate free radicals in the body, restore the health of the body's organs, prevent brain aging, and prolong life.
