EU Health Claim:
"Olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. The claim may be used only for olive oil, containing at least 5 mg of hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives (e.g. oleuropein complex and tyrosol) per 20 g of olive oil. In order to bear the claim information shall be given to the consumer that the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 20 g of olive oil (Commission Regulation (EU) 432/2012)."
With 1100 mg/kg phenolic content and 14.5 mg/20g or Hydroxytyrosol (and its derivatives) this has one of the highest phenolic contents in the world for a true Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This means you only need 6.9 mg (0.5 tbsp) per day of this product in order to fulfill the EU health claim above.
Due to its extravigant phenolic content, it has a highly bitter and pungent taste, so, be prepared.
Bitter is Better, when you want the maximum of natural olive oil Polyphenols possible.
