Let me tell you about a tiny ritual that changed everything for me—my skin, my digestion, my hormones, even how my coffee hits. One tablespoon of high-quality organic extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) first thing in the morning. That’s it. No fancy equipment, no trendy hacks—just pure Mediterranean magic in a spoon.
It’s now a non-negotiable part of my morning ritual, and if you’re focused on glow, clarity, hormone balance, gut healing, or sustainable fat loss… this one’s for you too.
Here’s why I take it—and why you might want to as well.
1. It Supports Hormone Balance
Hormones are everything—your mood, your weight, your energy, your skin. The healthy fats in EVOO (especially oleic acid) help regulate key hormones and support adrenal function. It also helps stabilize blood sugar, which is huge for protecting your cortisol rhythm (especially if coffee’s coming next).
If you’ve ever felt wired, tired, or inflamed—this helps you come back into balance.
2. It Boosts Fat Metabolism (Yes, Really)
Taking EVOO in the morning encourages your body to shift into fat-burning mode instead of fat-storing mode. It supports your liver and gallbladder, which are key players in metabolizing fat efficiently.
Pair that with a clean, protein-rich breakfast (or intermittent fasting + broth), and you’ve got a recipe for real body recomposition.
3. It Heals Your Gut (From the Inside Out)
EVOO is naturally rich in polyphenols, which feed good gut bacteria and calm inflammation in the intestinal lining. If you’ve ever struggled with bloating, leaky gut, or just that puffy, off-feeling—this is a beautiful support tool.
I started pairing EVOO with my Auïama broths, and it completely shifted my digestion.
4. It Smooths Out the Coffee Crash
Coffee on an empty stomach can spike your cortisol and crash your blood sugar (cue the 11 a.m. irritability). Taking a spoonful of EVOO buffers that caffeine hit—giving you more stable energy, less jitters, and no crash.
It’s like giving your nervous system a soft landing instead of a rollercoaster.
5. It Enhances Skin, Brain, and Mood
EVOO is one of the most skin-loving foods you can consume. It’s packed with vitamin E, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds that hydrate your skin from within, support collagen, and even boost your brain and mood.
Yes—it literally nourishes your glow, your mind, and your emotional resilience.
How I Take It
Simple:
• 1 tablespoon of high-quality, organic extra virgin olive oil
• Right when I wake up, before coffee
• Sometimes with a squeeze of lemon or a pinch of sea salt for digestion and mineral support
You can chase it with warm water and lemon if needed, or let it work its magic solo.
The Bottom Line
You don’t need to overhaul your life in one day. But this one ritual? It’s easy. It’s ancient. And it’s powerful.
Whether you’re resetting your hormones, trying to lose fat, working on gut health, or just craving more energy and glow—it starts with a spoonful of the right kind of fat.
Try it for 10 days and let your body speak for itself.
