The Olive Oil Scam

Extra virgin olive oil can be a really healthy addition to your diet. But, there’s a dark side to it…

Good quality extra virgin olive oil costs more to make than the cheap, nasty oils like vegetable or canola oil. So there’s a lot of money to be made by selling extra virgin olive oil at a regular price but mixing half the bottle with inferior oil to save costs, unbeknown to the consumer!

So, it makes sense that if any of these areas are lacking then you should be at greater risk for injury, especially when we are talking low back injuries (due to how important brain control is over the vitally important spinal muscles). We know that if you can’t activate your trunk and core muscles before rapidly moving an arm, this can potentially result in a strain or sprain of the low back. This is known as the feed forward mechanism - if our spine doesn't first stabilize properly before we move our limbs then we greatly increase our risk of injury at the spinal level. These injuries usually start as microscopic injuries that we don't even notice but like everything else they continue to b
