All our oils have a high content of polyphenols and natural antoxidants of which olives are rich in, which are fundamental to the preventing of cellular ageing and contrasting free radicals. Furthermore polyphenols provide salutary benefits on the cardiovascular system and thanks to vitamin E, D and Beta-carotene contribute to positive antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. These features makes our oils a genuine “long life elixir”, through which keeping oneself young and healthy is easy and enjoyable.
