Olive Oil and Lemon - A Unique Combination


Do you remember the flavors of mom's dishes? Regardless of our age and where we eat, we constantly remember the food and flavors of mom's kitchen. But have you ever wondered what the flavor of your dishes is? Many of us use EVOO oil to enhance the flavor of our dishes. But you may be interested in some unique olive oils with a special touch. This blog will talk about olive oil and lemon, a unique combination for your kitchen.


We all know extra virgin olive oil's (EVOO) beneficial characteristics. This food has been consumed for thousands of years for its properties and flavor. Among its most important properties are:


● Antioxidants

● Anti-inflammatory

● Antivirals

● Vitamin A

● Vitamin D

● Vitamin E

● Vitamin K



For this reason, EVOO is known as " liquid gold ." Then without a doubt, olive oil should be part of your diet. But as we mentioned, maybe you would like to give your kitchen a special and unique touch.


Lemon – A great companion


If we are going to mix the "liquid gold" with something, it must be something just as unique, right? The lemon is a fruit known for its unique flavor but also its many properties. And that is why the lemon is one of the most famous fruits, loved by many of us.


The lemon fruit is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C. Thanks to these antioxidants, lemon juice is an ally in fighting cancer. According to one study, a little lemon juice was needed to reduce breast cancer cell proliferation. Lemon acts as preventive protection against many immune diseases. On the other hand, Vitamin C helps fight chronic diseases such as asthma. In addition, vitamin C stimulates collagen synthesis, which acts as a skin cleanser.


It is not surprising that thanks to all these properties, the lemon is part of the diet of many people. Many of us consume it for its flavor and benefits to healthy living and even to lose weight. So if heaven gives you lemons, don't just make lemonade. Instead, combine it with olive oil, and make something unique. What are the results of combining olive oil and lemon , these two great earth products?
