Health Claim

We are particularly happy about the latest chemical analysis of the Monovarietal extra virgin olive oil from Megaritiki variety which gives it a Health Claim. The analysis was carried out by the organization world olive center at the National Kapodistrian University of Athens. This means that the levels of analyzed phenols (oleocanthal, etc.) are higher than the average values of international sampling of olive oils. In the comments it is stated that the daily consumption of 20gr of the analyzed olive oil provides 7.93 mg of tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol derivatives. Extra virgin olive oils that contain >5 mg per 20 gr belong to the category of oils that protect the blood lipids from oxidative stress according to the Regulation 432/2012 of the European Union. Finally, it is noted that the substances Oleocanthal and Oleacein have significant biological activity and they have been related with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, cardioprotective and neuroprotective activity . Healthy and Tasty!
