Did you know?

Olives, which are the fruit berries from the olive tree, have been cultivated for over 6,000 years, with evidence of olive cultivation in ancient Greece and Rome.
The olive tree is often referred to as the “tree of peace” because of its long history of symbolic significance in various cultures.
Olives are a key ingredient in Mediterranean diets and have been shown to contribute to heart health and longevity.
Black olives are green olives that have fully ripened on the tree, and their color changes as they mature.

Drawback

Olives can be high in sodium due to the brining process, which may not be suitable for people on a low-sodium diet.
Olives are often preserved in oil, adding extra calories and fat, so they should be consumed in moderation.
Olives may cause stomach discomfort in some individuals, particularly those with sensitive digestive systems, due to their high fat content and acidic properties.
