BENEFITS

When you add the nutritional qualities of extra virgin olive oil to the beneficial properties of fresh lemon, a magical mixture full of nutrients is created. The union of these two magnificent elements has multiple benefits to one’s health and wellbeing. Some of the most remarkable are presented below.

1. Detoxification
   Olive oil becomes even more drastic when mixed with fresh lemon juice. This natural antioxidant, due to its anti-inflammatory qualities, eliminates the toxins of the body and helps the liver to function properly.
2. Boosts your immune system.
   A squeeze of fresh lemon juice along with some extra virgin olive oil gives you a leg up on your daily vitamin C, an antioxidant nutrient that helps the immune system work properly, but more importantly, helps the body to maintain a balanced pH and protects you against colds and flu.
3. Promotes Digestion
   The laxative action of extra virgin olive oil along with the ability of lemon to deflate the stomach, create a massive improvement in food digestion. This results in better nutrient absorption and less bloating.
4. Gives you Energy
   The daily consumption of olive oil provides energy to the body, while filling it with modest amounts of vitamins E and K. The combination of olive oil and lemon water oxygenates and energizes the body, giving you a great boost to start your day.
5. Keeps blood pressure under control
   The antioxidants and minerals present in the ingredients of this natural medicine can be of great help to someone with high blood pressure levels. Drinking it first thing in the morning helps you control your blood pressure and improves heart rhythm.
6. Reduces cholesterol levels
   Olive oil, which is rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, helps in reducing the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) in the body, improves blood circulation and maintains the health of veins and arteries.
