Salad & Its Increased Benefits With Organic Olive Oil

By Katie Onson


When it comes to the most common salad dressings, I am sure that there are many names that will spring out. Everything from Thousand Island to Italian may come to mind but it's apparent that many health gurus steer clear of such items. This poses the question: is there a different alternative that can be used in order to grant salad a greater slew of benefits? This is where organic olive oil can come into play and the benefits, to put it simply, are stunning.

The Telegraph put up a report that talked about the various health benefits that organic olive oil can have when placed on salad. Various authorities on the matter, Bellucci Premium included, can tell you about how heart health can be made better because of the oil in question. It is also worth noting that this type of oil has good fats which can help to reduce the amount of bad cholesterol in the body. One of the little-known benefits of this oil, though, has to do with air pollution.

According to the article, taking in about two thirds of a teaspoon of organic olive oil can reduce the impact, to the heart, made by air pollution. Keep in mind that air pollution is an instance that can harm just about anyone, humans, animals, and plants included. Short-term effected tied to air pollution include - but are not limited to - irritation to the eyes and coughing fits. More extensive lengths of exposure, though, could lead to more serious conditions, lung cancer included.

Of course, you may be curious as to what the sources of air pollution are. One of the examples to consider is a running motor; if you are exposed to said motor for extensive lengths of time, the air around you runs the risk of becoming tainted. The burning of fossil fuels can create air pollution as well, which means that places like factories serve as hotbeds for this. In order to reduce the impact of air pollution, on you, aspects like diet are more than worth improving.

Hopefully these points will be able to grant you a clearer understanding of why it is that organic olive oil is so effective. I have no doubt that this particular product is hard to overlook, especially when it is so versatile. For example, if you are someone who would like to use the oil in tandem with a certain dish - a vegetable medley is ideal - you have the ability to do so. With this in mind, the benefits of this oil can be yours, provided you stick with it in the long term.
