Olives are one of my favorite snacks because…
➜ they satisfy my salt craving
➜ they are fermented, which means they are rich in probiotics! (many don’t know this!)
➜ they are rich in Vitamin E, which supports good skin and immune health
➜ they are a quick and easy snack to have around and can be eaten alone! Meaning they will not spike your glucose, like carbohydrate rich foods do
➜ they contain oleic acid which is linked to several health benefits, including decreased inflammation and a reduced risk of heart disease
➜ they also contain antioxidants, like quercetin, which is known to lower blood pressure and support heart health
