Hey folk @cryptokraze here with my new Blog about Food and Health awareness in which I will highlight the health benefits associated with Olives. We should add variety of foods in our diet because they have bio-active components in them that help in preventing many diseases and provide other health benefits.

Health Benefits of Olives

Here are some benefits of olives:

Antioxidant Properties

Olive is an antioxidant that reduces inflammation against bad bacteria. Studies have shown that eating olives can increase blood levels of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant.

Improve Heart Health

Olives have a monounsaturated fatty acid called oleic acid that is linked to the prevention of heart disease. Olive oil is the place where oleic acid is responsible for lowering blood pressure and cholesterol, reducing the risk of cardiovascular complications, and reducing the overall pressure on the system.

Lower Bone Loss

People who eat a traditional "Mediterranean diet" have shown a low case of osteoporosis and bone loss, but a precise interpretation of this phenomenon has recently been found.

Reduce Inflammation

Different compounds in olives can be used not only as antioxidant compounds but also as anti-inflammatory agents. It reduces the body's inflammation.

Allergy Treatment

Olives can support decrease the regularity or power of allergic responses. Some olive constituents act as antihistamines by delaying histamine receptor sites, persuading allergic reactions.

Antibacterial Quality

Oleuropein is a significant chemical constituent of olives and can also work as the germicidal agent for the body.

Even though I don't really like olives, because of its' strong taste, olive oil is one of the things you can add to your salad and meal overral.

I eat the same breakfast 6 days a week.

It consists of 5 eggs, some homemade sausage, and olive oil on the top with a salad.

You would be surprised how tasty that is.

And also healthy (healthy fats are really important for hormones).

I knew that olive oil has many health benefits, but I didn't know of the one with allergies.

I better tell that to my mom, because she is allergic to pollen, and the spring is coming.

No wonder the Roman empire used olives as ration for their troops. Thanks for the post.
