Olive oil- What is so special about it!!
A little extra olive oil might be good for your blood vessels. People with atherosclerosis showed significant improvement in inflammation and endothelial(the cells lining of blood vessels).In addition to its high MUFA(Mono unsaturated fatty acid) content,Olive oil (specially the Extra virgin varient) has atleast 28 different groups of phytochemicals which help in vasodilation(enlarging of arteries which in response control blood pressure).Atleast 2 Tablespoons daily might help to control blood pressure and manage lipid profile.
