Other benefits of using olive oil:
1. Weight loss secret weapon
Twenty litres of extra virgin olive oil every year and most
Mediterraneans still aren’t fat. According to Leandro Ravetti, Chief Oil Maker
of the award-winning Cobram Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oils, a diet rich in
extra virgin olive oil may deliver greater and longer lasting weight loss
results than a low-fat diet.
2. Diabetes deterrent
Eating extra virgin olive oil as part of a balanced diet may
help prevent or delay the onset of diabetes. Ravetti says extra virgin helps
“regulate and balance our insulin levels, so you’re not really having those
spikes.”
3. Pain relief
Extra virgin olive oil contains a substance called
oleocanthal, which has anti-inflammatory agents, meaning olive oil is like a
natural Ibuprofen. Research increasingly suggests inflammation impacts a number
of chronic diseases, so olive oil’s anti-inflammatory properties grow more
compelling all the time.
