In this episode of A Love Affair with Nature, we sit down with Roos, co-founder of OlvLimits, for a conversation that goes far beyond olive oil as a product.

We explore how olive oil becomes a daily ritual, a health-building habit, and a form of intelligence rooted in nature. Roos shares the story behind OlvLimits, from early harvests and lab-tested transparency to the deeper philosophy of listening to the olive tree, respecting the land, and choosing quality over compromise.

Together, we talk about polyphenols, bitterness, the famous peppery kick, and why these sensory signals are not flaws but messages from nature. We reflect on modern health rituals, the role of olive oil in inflammation and nourishment, and why slowing down and tasting consciously might be one of the most radical acts of care today.

This episode is an invitation to rethink olive oil, not as a commodity, but as a living ingredient with the power to quietly, consistently improve the way we care for our bodies and our planet.
