Regular Olive Oil Consumption

I'm wondering what specific health benefits can be expected from regular consumption of polyphenol-rich olive oil, and are there any recommendations for using it to get the most benefit?

Hi! Polyphenols in olive oil are natural antioxidants that are said to have many health benefits. They help fight the effects, protect the heart, and may even reduce the risk of some chronic diseases. Extra virgin olive oil is especially rich in polyphenols. So if you've heard about using polyphenols in olive oil, it's not a myth, they can support your health if you add them to your diet.

Thank you for your response! It's good to know that the benefits of polyphenols in olive oil are real. I’ll consider incorporating more extra virgin olive oil into my diet for those health benefits.

I wonder, do foods actually help somehow influence emotional state? Something like eat dark chocolate once a day so you don’t get depressed. Or is it all just marketing and myths? On one hand, food really does have all kinds of microelements, substances. Same with sweets, they can affect serotonin or dopamine, I don’t really know. Maybe you actually can help yourself if you build your diet smartly?
