About Olive oil teaspoon
A teaspoon of olive oil is a versatile and nutrient-rich addition to any diet. Originating from Mediterranean cuisine, olive oil is prized for its flavor and health benefits. This small serving contains approximately 40 calories and is rich in monounsaturated fats, which can support heart health by improving cholesterol levels and reducing inflammation. Olive oil is also a source of Vitamin E and antioxidants, which help protect cells from damage. While it is a healthy fat, consuming olive oil in moderation is key due to its high calorie density. Used in dressings, marinades, or drizzled over cooked dishes, it adds a subtle, earthy flavor while promoting a balanced diet. Ensure the oil is extra virgin for maximum nutritional value as this indicates minimal processing and higher retention of beneficial compounds.
