HEALTH
Olive oil is rich in polyphenols, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin E, which attributes several positive health effects, such as; Anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and cholesterol lowering.
In general, it is good for heart and blood vessels and the digestive tract.
A tablespoon of olive oil
Because on a sober stomach nutrients are absorbed directly and the positive effects are even greater, it is considered very healthy in Spain to eat a tablespoon of olive oil in the morning.
A myth
Sometimes it seems that it is still thought that you could get diarrhea through generous use of olive oil. This is, however, a fame. It is from the time that people began to go on holiday to Mediterranean countries, and then they received diarrhea by changing food or contaminated water. It was wrongly thought that this came from olive oil.
It is tempting to think that oil would cause any lubrication in your belly, but this really has to do with other things.
Olive oil does not cause diarrhea.

The dog days are approaching and with it the warmest period of the year. The olive trees have been able to prepare reasonably well with the rain that fell recently, but it could have been more. They can use it well because so far it looks like we're in for a good harvest. The trees are chock full of growing olives!
