Extra virgin olive oil has always been at the centre of the Mediterranean diet, valued for its authentic taste and for the benefits it offers the body. Rich in polyphenols, monounsaturated fatty acids and vitamins, it is much more than a condiment: it is an ally for your health, to bring to the table every day.
A concentrate of antioxidants
Polyphenols such as oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol protect the cells from oxidative stress, with an anti-inflammatory effect that helps to counter premature ageing.
Heart and circulation
Regular consumption helps to regulate cholesterol and support the cardiovascular system, contributing to a lower risk of chronic diseases.
Brain, bones and digestion
The oil’s bioactive compounds help keep the brain healthy; they aid the absorption of calcium and magnesium, useful for the bones; and they support digestion, stimulating the production of bile and the absorption of nutrients.
A simple gesture, every day
Adding a good extra virgin oil to your diet is a simple but effective choice to take care of yourself. Choosing a local product, like our oil from Caninese olives of the Viterbo Tuscia, means bringing to the table an ingredient that is both good and beneficial every day. You’ll find it in our shop.
