Move over, wheatgrass. There's a new shot in town. 🫒

Olive oil shots are having a moment — and honestly? We're here for it. Whether you're already a convert or you're raising an eyebrow right now, the research is pretty convincing. Everyone from the Mayo Clinic to Harvard to the Cleveland Clinic to Kaiser agrees: consuming at least a tablespoon of good extra virgin olive oil delivers serious health benefits. Even just half a teaspoon has been shown to make a difference. So why not just knock it back?

Here's what that little shot is doing for you:

Fighting inflammation. Olive oil is one of nature's most powerful anti-inflammatories. By reducing inflammation, it helps protect your heart and improve cardiovascular health — and its benefits extend to other inflammation-driven conditions too, including Alzheimer's disease, arthritis, erectile dysfunction, dementia, and atrial fibrillation. That's a lot of heavy lifting for one tablespoon.

Boosting blood vessel function. Olive oil increases nitric oxide availability, which helps blood vessels dilate, lowers blood pressure, and improves blood flow. Basically, it's like a tune-up for your circulatory system.

Loving your gut. Olive oil positively affects the gut microbiome — the community of microorganisms living in your digestive tract, where a huge portion of your immune system actually resides. A happy gut means a stronger you.

Here's the best part: you don't have to do shots. Olive oil is incredibly versatile. Drizzle it, dip into it, cook with it, or yes — shoot it straight. However you enjoy it, it's doing good things for your body. And with Beyond The Olive's lineup of premium extra virgin olive oils, it's also going to taste absolutely amazing.
