Olea Europaea-1

Olea Europaea DNA

Olea Europaea, and in particular the “Koroneiki” variety, is the source of our medical olive oil, renowned for its rich concentration of health-promoting polyphenols, mono-unsaturated fats and Omega-3s (ALA) 6 9.

Acts on Inflammation

Oleocanthal contained in medical olive oil prevents the production of pro-inflammatory COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes – the same way ibuprofen works. This pharmacological similarity provoked the interest of some of the best Medical Institutions in the world. Various clinical trials have verified its anti-inflammatory and therapeutic actions 1 2 3.

Best Anti-oxidant

In 2002, the EUROLIVE grant by the European Food Safety Administration funded a clinical trial on the impact of polyphenol-rich olive oil on human oxidative stress and lipid/DNA damage. The significant findings led to EU Reg 432/2012, recognizing olive oil with over 250mg/kg polyphenols as protective against oxidative stress 4 5.

Lowers High Blood Pressure

In 2018, the structure of (E)-elenolide, a previously unreported ingredient of olive oil, was determined after isolation and completely characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry. Our high-phenolic olive oil was selected by the scientists due its very high concentration in this unique substance, offering potential antihypertensive activity 6, 7.

Improves Arthritis Symptoms

Because inflammatory and oxidative factors are involved in the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a reduction of those factors instantly leads to the ease of the RA symptoms.In a recent study, oleocanthal prevented bone, joint and cartilage rheumatic affections induced by collagen8, 9.

Improves Cognitive Performance

In people at the early stage of Alzheimer’s symptoms, high phenolic olive oil has been linked to a notable improvement in mental function. For the first time, significantly improved brain performance in humans was linked to high phenolic olive oils rich in oleocanthal and oleacein10.

Regulates Diabetes Type-2

Daily consumption of polyphenol-rich olive oil improves metabolic control and circulating inflammatory adipokines profile in overweight Diabetes Type-2 patients11. In general, research suggests that high-phenolic olive oil can help to lower blood glucose and cholesterol levels.
