Olive oil lowers cholesterol

🫀 Consuming olive oil improves cardiovascular health.

Extra virgin olive oil is rich in healthy fats that help lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL (good) cholesterol. It also contains antioxidants that protect arteries.

Tip: Use olive oil instead of butter or vegetable oil when cooking to improve your heart health.
