Eight Reasons to Drizzle Drip and Enjoy
#1 It’s a Flavor Powerhouse.
Pleasure is one of the best reasons to eat anything—and extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is packed with it! From delicate and buttery to bold and peppery, its natural flavors elevate any dish. Many varieties are naturally infused with hints of garlic, basil, or oregano, replacing the need for extra seasonings in your kitchen.
#2 It’s Packed with Good Fats.
EVOO is rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which is why the FDA recognizes it as a great choice for cardiovascular wellness. It supports both heart and brain health while protecting against numerous diseases.
#3 It May Boost Brain Power.
Studies show that diets high in monounsaturated fats—like those found in EVOO—help slow cognitive decline and may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases.
#4 It’s Your Skin’s Best Friend.
With vitamins A, D, K, and E, EVOO helps protect against free radicals and cell oxidation, key contributors to premature aging. Beauty benefits start from the inside out.
#5 It’s a Natural Pain Reliever.
EVOO contains oleocanthal, a powerful anti-inflammatory compound that works like natural ibuprofen, helping to reduce pain and inflammation.
#6 It Fuels Your Energy.
By improving circulation and reducing inflammation, EVOO helps increase blood flow and oxygen supply, making breathing easier and boosting energy levels.
#7 It Strengthens Immunity.
Packed with antioxidants—polyphenols, vitamin E, chlorophyll, and carotenoids—EVOO enhances the immune system and protects the body from infections and diseases. (More about polyphenols pg.12)
#8 It’s Always Non-GMO.
No genetically modified olive trees exist, which means every bottle of olive oil you enjoy is naturally non-GMO.
