The high percentage of unsaturated fats make olive oil beneficial for heart and blood vessels. Its phenols are powerful antioxidants, fighting against free radicals. A lot of healthy properties of olive oil were already known in the remote past. For ancient Romans oil was such a symbol of longevity and beauty that Cleopatra used to have long baths dipped in the olive oil.
