“When you drink olive oil daily, something extraordinary happens to you.”
That’s according to Europe’s leading nutrition expert, Dr Sarah Brewer.
“Olive oil is without doubt the perfect superfood,” she told me in an interview last month.
“It’s packed with remarkable compounds called polyphenols, which are phenomenal for your skin, hair, joints, weight…”
“They can literally transform your health.”
Nature’s liquid gold in a bottle. Capture the essence of the Mediterranean diet with our exclusive, proprietary extra virgin olive oil with pre-harvest Koroneiki olives from Cyprus. An aromatic, potent and truly revolutionary addition to any meal thanks to the extremely powerful concentration of bioactive antioxidants from polyphenols, 30 times higher than regular olive oil, which help protect the fatty acids in your blood from oxidative stress.
Dr Sarah Brewer is at the very top of her field. Cambridge educated. Four first-class degrees. Author of over 70 best selling health books.
But is drinking olive oil really as life-changing as she claims?
To find out, I drank a shot of olive oil every morning for 30 days. Here are the 3 main benefits I experienced.
Day 7 – My Joints Stop Hurting
I’ve been a lifelong runner. And at 56, it’s taken its toll on my knees, which creak and ache whenever I wake up in the morning.
But after a week of drinking olive oil, I notice my joint pain has gone from a 9 to a 3! I leap out of bed like a child on Christmas Day.
Later, I call up Dr Sarah, and ask why my knees suddenly feel so springy and mobile.
“The polyphenols in olive oil act as a natural painkiller,” she tells me.
“In fact, a Harvard study found they can even work better than ibuprofen.”
I’m astounded. Why didn’t I hear about this 20 years ago?
In any case, I go on drinking olive oil religiously each morning. And a few days later, I notice something else:
Day 17 – My Skin and Hair Are Glowing
I’m on my way to work in [CITY]. And as I get off the bus, I catch my reflection on the side of a building.
“Hold on… who’s that woman?”
My hair is shiny and silky smooth. My skin’s bright and positively radiant.
I look better than I have in years, and walk into the office feeling like I own the place.
I call Dr Sarah again that night. And this time her explanation is simple.
“Olive oil is full of healthy fatty acids which moisturise your skin and hair – far better than the expensive creams you get in beauty stores.”
“In fact, it’s so good for your skin, Italian actresses bathe in it.”
Maybe I should start having olive oil baths too?
Either way, there’s no way I’m giving up my daily olive oil now…
Day 30 – My Heart Loves It!
The month is over, so I visit Dr Sarah’s practice for a checkup.
Well… I CANNOT believe the results.
My good cholesterol is higher. My blood pressure’s gone down.
Stunned, I ask Dr Sarah what happened.
“It’s all down to the polyphenols,” she says, “They’re fantastic for your heart.”
“They’re the real secret behind the Mediterranean diet.”
“You just need to use olive oil the right way.”
Now at this point, I have to admit something:
During my 30 days drinking olive oil, I wasn’t just taking it at random times.
I was following a very specific method – which Dr Sarah showed me before I started.
It’s an “ancient Italian ritual”, which she learned when researching the history of olive oil in Tuscany.
And it’s key for getting the full benefits to your weight, skin, hair and joints.
(Take it from me – you don’t want to use olive oil before knowing this method.)
Dr Sarah’s method transformed my health – and I’m delighted you have the chance to try it too.
There isn’t a second to lose.
