About One table spoon of olive oil
A tablespoon of olive oil is a golden liquid rich in nutrients and widely celebrated in Mediterranean cuisine. Extracted from olives, this oil contains no carbohydrates or proteins but is a powerhouse of healthy fats—primarily monounsaturated fats. These fats support heart health by improving cholesterol levels and reducing inflammation. It's also a source of antioxidants like vitamin E and polyphenols, which combat oxidative stress in the body. While olive oil is calorie-dense, with about 120 calories per tablespoon, its composition makes it a better choice than saturated fats like butter. Olive oil adds depth of flavor to salads, roasted vegetables, and marinades. However, because of its caloric content, moderation is key to balancing its health benefits in your diet. Its origins trace back thousands of years to regions like Greece, Italy, and Spain, making it a staple of healthy eating traditions worldwide.
