Olive Oil – A Healthy Source of Monounsaturated Fat and Vitamin E

Olive oil can be an excellent source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and is rich in phenolic acids and vitamin E, providing essential anti-inflammatory benefits while potentially decreasing herpes risk.

Olives contain numerous phenolic compounds known to provide many health benefits, including reduced blood pressure, increased energy and lessening of oxidative stress. Such compounds include oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol.

Early Life and Education

Olive trees are far more than simply an attractive landscape feature; they represent an extraordinary cultural and natural force which has transformed land into an extraordinary and universally recognised territory with multiple uses, perceptual (beauty of landscape, emotional resonance), historical, environmental considerations.

Team spirit is promoted through cooperatives, Designations of Origin bodies and technological businesses tied to olive cultivation such as harvesting machines and oil presses as well as phytosanitary and fertiliser companies, all providing new trade possibilities for this unique crop.

Achievement and Honors

As results of the 2022 NYIOOC continue to emerge, over 370 awards have already been given out so far to producers – with many more up for recognition soon. Monovarietal oils produced with only one olive cultivar (monovarietals) leading this year’s competition with 217 awards awarded specifically for these types of products.

Olive pomace has traditionally been treated with solvents and heat in order to create higher value products, such as energy or compost. While these treatments have limited recyclability and high environmental impacts, they remain the least sustainable options.

Israeli producer KeremZait won two Gold Awards at this year’s NYIOOC competition, marking Israel on its list of award recipients and inspiring other producers in the region to invest in modern processing equipment and nurseries to produce superior olive trees.

Personal Life

Olive trees are evergreens with gnarled trunks that branch into gray fissured leaves, ideal for Mediterranean climates and require dry soil with good drainage. After 3-4 years they typically begin producing fruit; their lifespan can stretch 500 years or longer.

Olive tree oil provides many health advantages. It contains monounsaturated fat, which has been shown to lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol levels in bloodstream, and it is high in antioxidants as well.

Olive oil intake was negatively associated with total and cause-specific mortality in both analyses, even after making adjustments for other types of fat and mutually adjusted models (Supplemental Tables 3-6).

Net Worth

Suze Orman popularized this calculation of net worth to measure one’s financial health. To calculate your own net worth, add up the current values of all of your tangible possessions such as jewelry, vehicles and furniture before subtracting all outstanding debt balances including mortgage loans, home equity loans, credit cards and any consumer loans you owe.
