Azeitona em Conserva, or preserved olives, are a staple in Mediterranean cuisine, often used as a flavorful addition to salads, pastas, and tapas. Typically preserved in brine or olive oil, they offer a tangy, savory taste. Rich in healthy monounsaturated fats, they support heart health and provide antioxidants, like vitamin E, which can combat inflammation and oxidative stress. Olives are also a source of iron and fiber, aiding digestion and energy production. However, due to the curing process, preserved olives can be high in sodium, which may contribute to increased blood pressure when consumed excessively. Moderation is key to enjoying their health benefits while limiting potential drawbacks. This versatile ingredient brings depth to dishes while offering nutritional perks as part of a balanced diet.
