how healthy are greek olives, i love them and eat them as snacks.?



Answers:
The great nutritional value of Greek olives, in conjunction with their flavor and taste, has been well established. Olives are a unique, pure and natural product, essential for a healthy lifestyle, since they are low in calories (less than 10 calories per olive), high in vitamins A, B1, B2 and C , and also in iron and calcium -- all necessary for the normal function of the human body. Moreover, aminoacids present are essential to human nutrition; specific unsaturated fatty acids have vitaminic value for the human body while the bitter element "oleuropein" stimulates appetite.

Scientific research in Europe and the U.S. on mono-unsaturated fatty acids, (also present in olives), has shown that they can help fight heart disease -- first, by lowering the level of LDL cholesterol (the so-called "bad cholesterol") contained in the blood, and second, by maintaining intact HDL cholesterol, which is beneficial in decreasing the risk of blocked arteries.
They are not that healthy.
All that salt. Going to plump you right up.
all veggies in moderation are no problem. decide on a daily consumption of perhaps 10 per day on lite cream cheese spread on wheat triscut crackers with diced pieces of celery & or carrots would make olives more filling and still very flavorable.
