Health Benefits of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is an important source of antioxidant polyphenols and Vitamin E. Unlike many other types of olive oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil undergoes minimal amounts of processing to preserve taste; this also preserves all of the health and nutritional benefits found in olives. 

The high levels of antioxidants properties promote many healthy effects in both health preservation and disease prevention. Some polyphenol antioxidants inhibit occurrence of tumors, as well as have been known to have damaging effects on reactive oxygen species associated with colon and breast cancers.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil also have many anti-inflammatory benefits that are associated with lower rates of asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. Anti-inflammatory compounds, such as oleocanthal, produce a similar effect to ibuprofen. Daily consumption of Extra Virgin Olive Oil may prevent inflammation.
