Lemon and olive oil juice
Today’s society drives people into a hectic life, full of tension and fear. We hardly have time to eat quietly because we are exposed to chronic fatigue. The good news is that it can change with a mix of lemon and olive oil. You will feel how your body refreshes and the energy level rises. In addition, many other benefits will cause you to use this natural remedy for the rest of your life.
Each ingredient has its own essential nutrients that are effective in healing many of our body’s problems Indeed, it is very valued in the kitchen, on the skin, or against respiratory diseases. The lemon is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C and is part of most diets or weight loss programs. In addition, thanks to these antioxidants, we already know the effectiveness of lemon in fighting cancer.
One study found that little lemon juice was needed to reduce breast cancer cell proliferation. In fact, lemon acts as a preventive protection against diseases. Vitamin C, on the other hand, helps fight chronic diseases such as asthma (Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology 2013). In addition, vitamin C stimulates collagen synthesis, which acts as a skin cleanser.
There are many types of olive oil that differ in their composition. However, we recommend extracting EVOO (Extra Virgin olive oil) of the highest quality and of course only using mechanical means. Olive oil is very common in the Mediterranean diet and consists mainly of oleic acid and lipids. It is particularly rich in fatty acids that work against bad cholesterol (LDL).
Also, olive oil contains monounsaturated fatty acids that lower the concentration of bad cholesterol in the blood. A study of 101 middle-aged Japanese women also found that daily consumption of lemon lowers blood pressure thanks to its concentration of flavonoids.
Moreover, this drink also helps against joint pain. Indeed, the oleocanthalphenol molecule contained in olive oil has anti-inflammatory properties similar to those of ibuprofen. Therefore, this remedy can be helpful for osteoarthritis or back pain.
Finally, this remedy is perfect for preventing gallstones. A study by researchers at Duke University Medical Center found that lemon juice prevents kidney stones from forming because it has a good citric acid concentration that helps detoxify the liver and dissolve gallbladder stones.

Some scientific research suggests that the combination of olive oil and lemon juice may offer benefits against erectile dysfunction (ED), although its effects are indirect at best. However, as yet, there is no scientific research showing that olive oil and lemon juice are effective for erectile dysfunction or better than medications such as Viagra.
Then…olive oil and lemon juice better than Viagra and Cialis? No, at this point.
