    Genomic Culinary Use

    High phenolic olive oil is a versatile oil that works well in many types of dishes. Use 10ml in your salads or vegetables. If you also love the taste of pomegranate, feel free to combine it uniquely with one of our functional concentrates. You may also use it as a salad dressing.

    Health Benefits

    Both olives and pomegranates offer numerous health benefits. Olive oil is known for its heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and its anti-inflammatory properties. Pomegranates are rich in antioxidants and have been shown to improve heart health, lower blood pressure, and improve digestion.

    In a recent study in Spain, 84 middle-aged trial participants added olive and pomegranate extract to their meals for eight weeks; 67 of them finished the research. According to findings from more extensive and prolonged studies on the Mediterranean diet, it was discovered that taking supplements containing the two nutrients can restore healthy levels of atherosclerosis indicators. This was particularly clear in test subjects who had endothelial dysfunction (ED) symptoms and high levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol at the start of the experiment but no symptoms of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The scientists concluded that olive and pomegranate extracts can improve lipid profiles and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

    Skincare Use

    If you’re referring to skincare, both olive and pomegranate offer benefits for the skin. High phenolic olive oil is a very rich source of vitamin E, which can help to nourish and hydrate the skin. Pomegranate oil is rich in antioxidants, which can help to protect the skin from damage and premature aging.

    Overall, the choice between olive and pomegranate comes down to your personal preference, the type of food you’re preparing, and the specific health benefits you’re looking for. Incorporating both into a healthy and balanced diet can provide a wide range of health benefits.
