Incorporating Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) into your daily routine as a New Year’s resolution is an excellent idea to improve your health. Here’s a plan to do it effectively and sustainably:
Purpose: “Improve my health with EVOO”
1. Motivation for the purpose: Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is an essential food in the Mediterranean diet and has multiple health benefits, thanks to its high content of healthy fats, antioxidants and bioactive compounds. Knowing the benefits of its consumption will help you maintain consistency and motivation.
In this way, if you consume EVOO you will be taking care of your heart, your digestive health, your skin and your brain. In addition, you will improve your energy levels and your general well-being.
We recommend that you track your progress: Keep a diary where you record your daily EVOO consumption and how you feel (energy, digestion, skin, etc.). Take it as another healthy habit, integrated into your usual diet.
2. Practical ideas for consuming EVOO:
· On an empty stomach: One tablespoon on an empty stomach can improve digestion and help control cholesterol.
· In salads and cold dishes: Use it as a dressing instead of other less healthy oils or sauces.
· To cook: Choose to cook at low or medium temperature to preserve its properties.
· Soups and creams: Add a splash at the end to enhance the flavors and provide an extra nutritional touch.
· Healthy toast: Replace butter with EVOO in your breakfasts.
3. Learn to choose a good EVOO and store it properly:
· Always choose Morales EVOO and within our selection the one that best suits your organoleptic tastes…
· If you cannot purchase our EVOO, look for labels such as “extra virgin” and cold extraction, (it is not always a guarantee of quality since there is too much fraud in the packaging…)
· For this reason, we recommend that you go to local businesses that provide you with security.
Once purchased, its conservation is very important… Do it in a cool, dark place to maintain its properties.
4. Establish an appropriate daily amount:
Consume between 20-30 ml daily (2-3 tablespoons). It is an ideal amount to take advantage of its benefits without the risk of abandoning your purpose.
