Olive is a small tree that belongs to the olive family and thrives in temperate regions of the world. The Kalamata olive is a variety of olive tree, which, as its name suggests, is cultivated in the region of Kalamata, in Messinia. Table olives, especially black olives, are an important source of polyphenols.

It has also been found to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and cardioprotective properties. They are involved in the good functioning of the gastrointestinal system as they are rich in fibre. Due to the increased amount of fibre and vegetable protein, they provide a feeling of satiety and contribute to the good functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.
