Extra virgin olive oil is a natural, healthy foodstuff which, apart from bringing fragrance and flavour to foods, is rich in many factors which help us to live well and which forestall and cure different pathologies.Today it is enjoying a great resurgence and is being turned to again for its healthy virtues.
The science of nutrition recognizes in extra virgin olive oil the most balanced combination of fatty acids, saturates and mono- and poly-unsaturates, the most suitable of the vegetable oils for nutritional and dietetic ends.Indeed olive oil stimulates intestinal absorption of calcium, assisting growth of the major bones and the mielinization of nerve fibres in children, it stimulates the endocrine and exocrine secretion of the pancreas, it is cholagogic and choleretic, and it is the most digestible of all vegetable oils.It is also the component which characterises the Mediterranean diet.The term “Mediterranean diet” was coined by an American scientist called Ancel Keys.
