FAQ on Aubergines in oil

What are aubergines in oil good for?

Eggplants in oil are an excellent source of fibre, vitamins and antioxidants. Fibers help regulate intestinal transit and keep blood sugar levels stable. Vitamins, especially vitamin C and B vitamins, support the immune system and skin health. Antioxidants, such as flavonoids found in eggplant, help fight free radicals, reducing oxidative stress in the body. Additionally, the olive oil used to preserve them is rich in monounsaturated fats, which are beneficial for heart health.

Can those with high cholesterol eat aubergines in oil?

Those with high cholesterol can consume aubergines in oil in moderation. Olive oil, the main component of the seasoning, is known for its beneficial effects on HDL ("good") cholesterol and for its ability to reduce LDL ("bad") cholesterol. However, it is important to pay attention to the quantities since the oil, although healthy, is also caloric. It is always advisable to consult your doctor or a nutritionist to adjust your diet to your specific health conditions.

To avoid the risk of botulism, it is essential to carefully sterilize glass jars and use appropriate storage methods.
