One of the Mediterranean´s diet main ingredients, extra virgin olive oil provides a special flavor and aroma to each dish while adding no cholesterol and almost no saturated fat. It has omega-9 monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) which may help to lower total blood cholesterol and "bad cholesterol" (LDL) while increasing "good cholesterol" (HDL), therefore contributing to decreasing the risk of heart disease and other chronic diseases. Moreover, it has vitamin E which is known to have antioxidant properties by protecting cells from free radicals. This vitamin is also involved in the immune function and other metabolic processes. That the oil is Virgin means that it has undergone less industrial processing, it is more natural. Therefore all its nutritional and organoleptic properties remain intact for your body to take advantage off!!

As a refreshing drink, lemonade helps you stay calm and cool. The health benefits of it are due to its many nourishing nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium while having no fat and therefore no cholesterol.  Unlike most animals, humans are not able to synthesize vitamin C, so it becomes a crucial dietary component. Also recognized as ascorbic acid, it is mostly known because of its antioxidant properties, but it also helps in the synthesis of collagen (growth and repair of connective tissue), the healing of wounds, and the functioning of the immune system. Vitamin C is also very important in a vegetarian diet as it helps absorb the iron in plant-based foods. Half a cup of lemon juice covers approximately a 77% of vitamin´s C daily recommendation.

They are also a good source of several vitamins such as vitamin A, vital for a healthy vision and cell repair, B-complex vitamins (riboflavin, choline, B12) and the hard to find bone-healthy Vitamin D. Eggs also contain some essential minerals such as phosphorus, Zinc and some even are rich in omega-3.
