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 1000+ mg/kg phenolic content and 14+ mg/20g or Hydroxytyrosol (and its derivatives) using the HPLC chemical testing method during production and 1600+mg/kg and 32+mg/kg respectively using the NMR chemical testing method, 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 g (0.5 tbsp) per day of this product in order to fulfill the EU health claim above.
Due to its extravagant 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.
