Olive oil is one of the ancient foods that truly nourish the body inside and out. *“It is symbolic of goodness and purity, and the trees is a symbol of peace and happiness”. Make sure what you purchase is a whole food, if you do not choose a high-quality oil, it becomes harmful, not healing. Look for cold or expeller pressed, extra virgin, it should be in a dark bottle, smell strong and “herby” and when placed in a fridge should turn cloudy or harden slightly. Once you have got the right stuff, you can enjoy these benefits.
