What is Olive Oil?
Olive Oil is an oil extracted from olives, a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean Basin. The oil is produced by pressing whole olives. It is commonly used in cooking, but it is also used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and as a fuel for traditional oil lamps. It is also thought to have many health benefits though there is no confirmed scientific evidence of this.
Olive Oil is used by some people to treat constipation, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, blood vessel problems associated with diabetes, and pain associated with ear infections, arthritis, and gallbladder disease. This product is also used to treat jaundice, intestinal gas, and meteorism (swelling of the abdomen due to gas). It is also used to destroy the bacteria that cause ulcers and helicobacter pylori. Olive Oil also has a long history of being used as a home skincare remedy.
The composition of Olive Oil depends on the type of olives, altitude, time of harvest and extraction process. It consists mainly of oleic acid (up to 83%), with smaller amounts of other fatty acids including linoleic acid (up to 21%) and palmitic acid (up to 20%). Extra virgin olive oil is required to have no more than 0.8% free acidity and is considered to have favorable flavor characteristics.
What are the side effects of Olive Oil?
Olive Oil is generally safe to use and has a limited range of side effects, if any. If taken orally, you may experience some nausea, vomiting and upset stomach. Though an allergic reaction to Olive Oil is rare, if you happen to experience symptoms such as hives, rashes, itching, swelling of the tongue, lips, eyelids or throat then you should stop using Olive Oil immediately and seek medical attention from your healthcare provider or doctor.
