Lemon, olive oil and black pepper remedy: benefits

This remedy is a complement in our day to day. However, by itself it will not offer us any efficacy if we do not accompany it with a varied, balanced diet where we avoid high consumption of saturated fat.

It costs you nothing to take this small spoonful rich in phytonutrients that support many of your basic functions. However, if we are not aware of the importance of leading a healthy life, specific remedies will only act as small patches without much healing effect.

Therefore, we encourage you to take good care of what you put on your dishes every day, and do not forget to lead an active life, in which you also attend to your emotions and sources of stress. Maintaining these pillars, this lemon, olive oil, and pepper remedy can do a lot for you.

Optimize our heart function

These three foods are part of what is known as the Mediterranean diet. Extra virgin olive oil is rich in these types of healthy fats that our heart needs to prevent diseases such as arteriosclerosis.

• Polyunsaturated acids help us reduce high levels of LDL cholesterol while increasing HDL (the good cholesterol).

• In turn, lemon is a powerful antioxidant rich in vitamin C that will make our arteries more elastic and fat deposits stop adhering to their walls.
• Something you might like to know about pepper is that it has a long history in our culture. According to the University of Wisconsin (United States), pepper was used in many civilizations as “currency.”
• It was so prized for its heart health benefits that many were eager for new shipments from Asia to benefit from its minerals and phytonutrients.

A cleansing remedy

The simple combination of olive oil with lemon juice on an empty stomach stands out as an antioxidant remedy with great detoxifying power.

• It allows us to purify toxins, while taking care of such important organs as the liver, by providing it with a high content of vitamins and beneficial fatty acids.

• Regular consumption of this remedy with lemon, olive oil and black pepper is a great way to regulate the pH levels of our body.
• It also allows us to maintain a more optimal intestinal health, by promoting the elimination of toxins and a better absorption of nutrients.

Natural source of manganese

That pinch of black pepper that we are going to add to this remedy will give you a high content of this mineral. Manganese activates the enzymes in our cells to better metabolize proteins and fats.

We take care of our bones and, in addition, black pepper provides us with collagen to reduce wrinkles and promote wound healing.

It allows us to lose weight

The effect is cumulative and we will notice it after a few weeks. The piperine present in black pepper allows us to fight the gene that promotes the growth of new fat cells.

In addition, this remedy acts as an activator of our metabolism, makes our body warm and we can better purify those lipids and eliminate toxins.
