What are the Benefits of Olive Oil?
Quality olive oil is strong antioxidant, adaptogen, containing a huge amount of polyphenols. And what is very important, completely natural. Take 1 tablespoon daily, preferably before meals. It would be difficult to find an alternative to such a supplement. For immunity, gut, energy, cholesterol reduction or even fat burning.
BluePrint founder, Bryan johnson to inspire, we also offer similar types of supplements. Bryan Johnson, the innovator, the pioneer of longevity, the most researched man in the world, has proven time and time again that good quality olive oil should be consumed daily. Of course, it is important to emphasize quality and with high biological value! BluePrint offers olive oil under the name Snake Oil. We are currently offering California Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Interesting coincidence, both are made in the USA, not as we are used to seeing in Spain or Greece.
Life Extension Extra Virgin Olive oil – Polyphenols content as high as 800 mg/kg
Polyphenols, are phytochemicals found in vegetables, fruits, berries, nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains. These compounds have antioxidant properties and protect plant cells from degenerative processes caused by free radicals.
Olive oil helps protect the cardiovascular system
Olive oil is rich in plant-based antioxidant polyphenols that protect blood vessels from oxidative stress and loss of integrity. Monounsaturated fatty acids, which make up a large part of olive oil, reduce total cholesterol, improve the ratio of good and bad cholesterol in the blood, thus reducing the likelihood of developing atherosclerosis, heart attack and stroke.
Anti-inflammatory effect
The antioxidant oleocanthal present in olive oil has an anti-inflammatory effect, its mechanism of action is similar to that of ibuprofen. The anti-inflammatory effect of 10 ml of extra virgin olive oil is equivalent to about 1/10 of an adult dose of ibuprofen. The monounsaturated oleic acid found in olive oil can reduce blood levels of C-reactive protein, one of the main markers of inflammation. Olive oil has a positive effect on rheumatoid arthritis.
Positive effect on the digestive tract
There is evidence that olive oil inhibits the growth of the unwanted bacteria Helicobacter pylori, which is associated with the development of ulcers, in the digestive tract.
