Nutritional Values and Health Benefits
Rich Nutritional Content
Olives are extremely rich in healthy fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and powerful antioxidants:
Heart-Healthy Fatty Acids
Olives contain up to 75% monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA). Particularly, oleic acid supports cardiovascular health, lowering bad cholesterol (LDL) levels while increasing good cholesterol (HDL) levels.
Vitamin and Mineral Powerhouse
Contains vitamins E, A, K and essential minerals like iron, calcium, copper, and magnesium. Vitamin E, with its powerful antioxidant properties, protects cells from the harmful effects of free radicals.
Potent Antioxidants
Rich in polyphenols like hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein. These compounds have anti-inflammatory effects and protect cells from oxidative stress, slowing the aging process.
Scientifically Proven Benefits
The positive health effects of olive and olive oil consumption have been proven by numerous clinical studies:
PREDIMED Study (2013)
Showed that Mediterranean diet and olive oil consumption reduced cardiovascular disease risk by up to 30%. Regular olive oil consumers had significantly lower risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death.
EUROLIVE Study (2006)
Demonstrated that consuming 25 ml of extra virgin olive oil daily reduced LDL cholesterol and increased HDL cholesterol in as little as 3 weeks. Significant reduction in oxidative stress markers was also observed.
EPIC Study (2012)
Found that olive and olive oil consumption reduced risk of certain cancers, particularly breast and digestive system cancers. Polyphenols inhibit tumor formation through mechanisms like membrane stabilization and apoptosis support.
