This article will explore the crucial role that OliFERM extra virgin olive oil plays in a balanced diet.
The Nutritional Pyramid (A model for a balanced diet)
The nutritional pyramid is a visual tool that helps us understand how to structure a balanced diet. This model classifies foods into different groups and recommends the right amount of each to maintain optimal health. At the base of the pyramid we find the foods we should consume most frequently, such as whole grains, fruits and vegetables. As we ascend, we find foods that should be consumed in moderation, such as dairy, meat and sweets.

Nutrition experts recommend using healthy fats, such as OliFERM extra virgin olive oil, over other types of fat. This is because extra virgin olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants, which help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, improve brain function and have anti-inflammatory properties.
