Bravoleum, health Notes
Olive oils, when they are of quality, contain very interesting elements for our health. Firstly, oleic oil, monounsaturated fatty acid, which fights cholesterol. Indeed, this acid has the ability to dissolve the cholesterol plaque (atheroma) that covers our arteries over the years. In this way it acts as a “cleaner” of arteries, improving blood circulation and avoiding obstructions and, consequently, vascular accidents.
The other “magic” components are polyphenols. They are found in a minority number in olive oil, barely 1%. However, they are able to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s or even kill cancer cells. Therefore, it is important that the oil is Extra Virgin, and of quality, cold extracted, etc … because otherwise the oleic acid will have started to oxidize and the polyphenols will have volatilized.
