It is widely known that there are many positive health factors associated with consumption of olive oil. Medical studies indicate that Mediterranean countries and specifically Italy, where olive oil consumption is high, suffer less cardiovascular health problems than other countries in the world where the consumption of animal fat is high or simply the nutrition parameters are poor.

In addition, olive oil helps the normal function of the digestive system reducing to minimum the chances of ulcers and other related diseases. Extra virgin olive oil (by definition is cold pressed) is the least processed of the different grades of oil. As a result, it retains the highest levels of antioxidants and polyphenolics found in olives. Antioxidants may protect the body from age-related changes and certain diseases. Polyphenolics are compounds thought to improve the immune system.
