Virgin Extra Olive Oil: New health benefits identified !
On January, the Spanish magazine SINC published a news of a recent scientific research lead by experts at Jaen University. The work shows new benefits of an olive-oil rich diet.
Specifically, tests with mice have shown that the microbiota (or intestinal flora, the millions of bacteria that live within our digestive system and helps our feeding) gets benefited from a virgin extra olive oil consumption rather than from other kinds of fat one, as, for instance, butter.
The complete research has been published at the academic journal Plos One. It also highlights the fact that the diet from virgin extra olive oil is less related to obesity and hypertension than others diets. See this link for further information:
