Pain Relief


Inflammation is thought to be one of the key drivers behind some of the world’s more chronic health problems, including Alzheimer’s and Type 2 diabetes. Research looking at the role of antioxidants and their anti-inflammatory effect, including oleic acid found in olive oil, has discovered they play a role in reducing inflammation and the marker for inflammation known as C-Reactive Protein (CRP).


Some studies have even found that extra virgin olive oil contains an antioxidant compound called oleocanthal, which shares the same pharma logical activity as ibuprofen, thereby acting as a natural anti-inflammatory. Part of this anti-inflammatory role has also been associated with certain positive changes in immune function in those with rheumatoid arthritis.
