Olive oil has been used for centuries in the Mediterranean since the days of Hippocrates for its internal and external benefits. You can find olive oil in many different cosmetic products due to it rich vitamin content which includes vitamins A, B-1, B-2, C, D, E and K and in iron. Olive oil has been revealed to decrease UV B damage to your skin. This oil is a great moisturizer and is used as one of our key ingredients in most of our products due to its healing properties. Olive oil is not only great for your skin and hair but also for your heart.
Many of us use olive oil in our cooking due to its low saturated fat content and benefits for our cardiovascular system with it being high in monounsaturated fats which helps raise our HDL (good) cholesterol levels. It has been shown that olive oil is also able to clean out our arteries to some extent due to this high level of this component in the oil. Some studies have seen that Olive oil also has anticarcinogenic properties in monounsaturated fat.
We should stock up on our Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) and use it both for our inner and external beauty.
