Olive oil: Mediterranean gold with a healthy taste. February 2010 |
Body, flavour and aroma define the juice of the olive, a pleasure for all the senses and a source of health for our organism. The base of the Mediterranean diet and the interest in the gastronomic and dietetic properties of the olive, have turned it into a treasure that, for many years, has impregnated our dishes with an exceptional flavour. The continuous consumption of olive oil favours the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, stomach ulcers and arterial thrombosis. It is also prescribed to regulate the cholesterol level, correct constipation, stimulate bone growth, absorb calcium and mineralize the bones. Source : http://www.dsalud.com/numero16_1.htm |
