Olive oil and its therapeutic effects

A balanced nutrition and daily use of olive oil help to stay healthy. This has been verified by recent scientific studies. The positive effect of olive oil is due to the high proportion of mono-unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants contained in the oil, as well as the unique combination of other ingredients. Phenols, vitamin E, sterols, squalene, oleocanthal, etc. prevent or slow down pathological processes.

Olive oil – the better, the healthier!

The organic OLI DE SANTANYI contains a particularly high proportion of valuable polyphenols etc. and no harmful substances such as pesticides. The high quality is due to the early harvesting time and the high-tech process for oil extraction. Only olive oil with a high content of antioxidative polyphenols of over 250 mg/kg has a therapeutic effect. While supermarket oil often contains only about 60 mg/kg, OLI DE SANTANYI reaches values of over 600 mg/kg*.

• Reduces the risk of alzheimer’s/parkinson’s
• Strengthens the cardiovascular system
• Protects against heart attack and stroke
• Prevents arteriosclerosis
• Reduces the risk of arteriosclerosis
• Reduces the risk of cancer (prostate, colorectal, breast, stomach)
• Reduces the “bad” cholesterol (the good HDL cholesterol remains the same)
• Protects the liver
• Prevents osteoporosis
• Reduces the risk of type 2 diabetes, improves the blood glucose profile of diabetics
• Prevents depression
• Anti aging, reduces oxidative stress, regulates the immune system
• Protects the skin, delays the aging process
• Reduces periodontitis

We recommend: A tablespoon (10-15ml) of OLI DE SANTANYI every morning. In addition, many other foods can be enhanced with the oil, in order to increase the total amount taken.
