10 Benefits of Olives
Benefit #3: Enhances Bone Health
Another thing that olives are known to do is enhance the health of the bones, particularly by helping to improve upon or prevent people from developing a condition known as osteoporosis. This is a condition that results in problems with bone mass and can make people more likely to experience fractures.
Osteoporosis is much less common of a problem in Mediterranean countries where they are known to eat large amounts of olives. This isn’t just speculation, though. Many studies have revealed that some of the nutrients found in olives and olive oil are useful for helping to enhance the strength of our bones.
