Benefits of Olive Oil
Olive oil is a safe and respected food that has been known from the earliest of times of the Egyptian pharaohs to those of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Olive oil is known by the name Jaitun in Ayurveda tradition where it is used to soften delicate skin and to preserve lustrous, shiny, healthy hair. Across the Mediterranean this rich oil has been used to care for children's delicate skin, restore and protect dry skin and is used as a lubricant in massage of sore muscles and limbs. It is safe and soothing for use on skin prone to dryness, locking in precious hydration and so helping to restrict the formation of lines and wrinkles.
