Good Source of Fatty Acids

Olive oil is considered a good source of mono - unsaturated fatty acids to promote health. Since some people might be concerned about the presence of mercury in fish, olive oil is a safer and much healthier substitute to include in your diet. Olive oil has many benefits some of which includes:

* lowering cholesterol levels
* moisturizing the skin
* stimulating digestion
* promoting heart health
* protecting the body against certain kinds of cancer

Always buy extra virgin olive oil, since this kind is high quality and does not contain harmful chemicals. I've read that you get the most benefits from olive oil by mixing it in your food and also by taking cold pressed olive oil softgels for your convenience.
