Why Olio Salvo?

Health & Wellness: The Power of Polyphenols

Our extra virgin olive oil is naturally rich in polyphenols - powerful antioxidants that provide significant health benefits. Research (PubMed, AllRecipes) shows these compounds help:

  • Reduce inflammation
  • Lower cardiovascular disease risk
  • Support brain health
  • Fight oxidative stress
  • Promote longevity

The Taggiasca olives we use are particularly rich in these beneficial compounds, making our oil not just a condiment, but a daily investment in your health.
