The daily consumption of 20 g of the analyzed olive oil provides 22.6 mg of hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, or their derivatives. 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 Regulation 432/2012 of the European Union.

Polyphenols in extra virgin olive oil

Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds in extra virgin olive oil. Their concentration varies with olive variety, growing conditions, harvest timing, processing and storage. For measured values, consult the laboratory certificate for the specific product and batch.

Flavour

Bitterness and pungency are sensory characteristics of extra virgin olive oil. A peppery sensation is not, by itself, a laboratory measurement of phenolic content.

Storage and use

Keep the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark place, away from the cooker, heat and direct sunlight. Follow the storage instructions and best-before date on the packaging. Enjoy the oil with salads, vegetables, bread and finished dishes.
