Romance out the door​

Used for millennia for cooking, olive oil is also recognized as an asset for your health.

- Use olive oil for skin and hair:
While olive oil is ideal to accompany your various dishes, it is also antioxidant, nourishing and softening for your skin. Rich in vitamins A, D and E, it has been used for many centuries for the face and body, helping to fight the effects of aging on the skin. To do this, we recommend that you apply extra virgin olive oil to your skin and combine it with honey to concoct a hydrating mask. You can also use it to hydrate and repair your hair if it is tangled, dry or damaged.

- Olive oil reduces high blood pressure:
Consuming olive oil daily plays a role in blood pressure. Its use is highly recommended for the elderly and very famous in the Mediterranean. Composed mostly of fatty acids and rich in essential nutrients, olive oil thus reduces the risk of stroke and prevents diseases and infections that can affect health. Many people consume it at the rate of 2 tablespoons per day.

- Relieve pain: with olive oil
With its anti-inflammatory properties, olive oil is effective in reducing muscle or joint pain. Rich in oleocanthal, the latter is very popular with athletes in addition to being inexpensive compared to other pharmaceutical products. According to researchers, its anti-inflammatory action is also similar to ibuprofen, a drug known to fight pain and fever. We recommend that you use it as a massage oil on the affected areas to relax your body muscles or relieve your headaches.

-Optimize digestion with olive oil:
Do you have a hard time digesting certain dishes and you don't know how to remedy it? Olive oil is very recommended for people with gastric or digestive problems. It is no coincidence that it is a staple of Mediterranean cuisine for its benefits. Some people don't hesitate to eat an olive oil diet to aid digestion after heavy meals. To do this, you can take a tablespoon thirty minutes before the meal.
