Ways To Save Money Using Certified EVOO

By Mattie Knight


Most people think of cooking when it comes to the use of olive oil, but this is not the only way. Certified EVOO or extra virgin olive oil has many other uses besides that of the kitchen. This article will explore these methods in both food and other areas where a person can make use of this product.

Cooking, as was mentioned before, is the main use of olive oil. It can be used in salad dressings along with lemon juice and salt or to make stir fried vegetables. Depending on the dish one is preparing, it might be better to use lighter tasting oil but this also depends on the tastes of the person doing the cooking or who they are cooking for.

This is also the reason why many believe it is the best oil for cooking, due to the monounsaturated fats which is believed by some to be stable in heat. On the other hand, there are others who say that the antioxidants that give this type of oil its color, are unstable in heat which can make it toxic when heated. So this is something one should keep in mind.

Olive oil is also used for beauty purposes not only in commercial products used on the skin and hair but in products that are created by the average consumer. There are many who decide to create for themselves items like lip balm, homemade conditioners, and shampoo. Many women are also concerned about how the aging process affects their skin.

For this reason, there are those who turn to olive oil because it contains vitamin E which helps to reduce inflammation and keep the skin smooth and supple. This can replace the moisturizer that is used at night with good results. Olive oil is also good on the scalp and helps to tackle dryness that might occur in the hair itself.

In addition to cooking and beauty, there are everyday uses for olive oil around the home. It can be used to shine stainless steel whether it is a sink, utensils or another item. This oil can also be used to polish wooden furniture to give an extra sheen. If a door in the home is making noise, this can be the time to use olive oil to on the hinges.

A person can also use the oil to shine stainless steel and polish wooden furniture. It can also be used to shine shoes and boots made of leather including boots, belts, and other items that not only need to be shined but waterproofed. Olive oil can also be used in the food of pets like cats and dogs to keep them healthy and give their coats a nice sheen.

Consumers are always looking for ways to save money and use a minimum amount products if they can get the same results with one. The use of olive oil does not eliminate the need for other products that are needed in the home. However, the knowledge of how it can be used gives a person more options to choose from when the need arises.
