Beyond Extra Virgin: The EVOO with Superpowers

Aristoleo+ Certified High Phenolic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (HP EVOO) offers all the benefits of regular olive oil, which is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) like oleic acid.

These MUFAs are linked to improved heart health and reduced inflammation. But high phenolic olive oil goes above and beyond, thanks to the presence of disease-fighting compounds called polyphenols or phenolic compounds, particularly oleocanthal and oleacein.

Here are ten health benefits that high phenolic olive oil offers:

  1. Stronger Antioxidant Protection:
    Regular olive oil is already a good source of antioxidants, but high phenolic olive oil has even more. Polyphenols help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and potentially lowering the risk of chronic diseases. [1]

  2. Enhanced Heart Health:
    Studies suggest that high phenolic olive oil may offer even greater benefits for heart health than regular olive oil. The polyphenols may help lower bad cholesterol (LDL), raise good cholesterol (HDL), and improve blood pressure.[2]

  3. Potent Anti-inflammatory Effects:
    Chronic inflammation is a major contributor to many diseases. High phenolic olive oil's polyphenols have strong anti-inflammatory properties, potentially reducing inflammation throughout the body. [3]

  4. Possible Cancer Prevention:
    While research is ongoing, some studies suggest that the polyphenols in high phenolic olive oil may have anti-cancer properties. They may help protect cells from damage and even reduce tumor growth. [4]

  5. Improved Brain Health:
    The polyphenols in high phenolic olive oil may benefit brain health. They may help protect against cognitive decline, Alzheimer's disease, and dementia. [5]

  6. Blood Sugar Control:
    Some studies suggest that high phenolic olive oil may help regulate blood sugar levels, potentially benefiting people with diabetes or pre-diabetes. [6]

  7. Weight Management:
    High phenolic olive oil may promote feelings of fullness and satiety, which can aid in weight management. The healthy fats in olive oil may also help regulate blood sugar, which can further support weight control. [7]

  8. Digestive Health:
    High phenolic olive oil may promote digestive health. The polyphenols may have antibacterial properties and may help protect against stomach ulcers. [8]

  9. Stronger Bones:
    Some research suggests that high phenolic olive oil may improve bone health and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. [9]

  10. Antimicrobial Properties:
    The polyphenols in high phenolic olive oil may have some antimicrobial properties, potentially helping to fight off bacteria and viruses.[10}

It's important to note that most of the research on high phenolic olive oil is still in its early stages. However, the results are promising, and high phenolic olive oil appears to be a healthy addition to a balanced diet.

With Aristoleo+ we take this a step further for MicroDosing a certified and ultra high phenolic olive oil (1000+ mg/kg phenolic compounds) throughout the day to maintain optimum levels of these precious phenolic compounds in the bloodstream.
