Polyphenols are natural bioactive compounds, with antioxidant capacity, which have aroused great interest at nutritional level for their actions, not only in the state of health, but also in the prevention of functional and structural alterations of various diseases. Polyphenols are found, among other plant species, in the leaves and fruit of the olive tree so that, following a suitable production process, they can be present in the oil.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/span>\n

Scientific studies have shown primarily antioxidant actions, but also other actions that are clearly beneficial to health, such as:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Increases protection against cardiovascular and hepatic risks due to its purifying action and its contribution to the increase of \u201cgood\u201d cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol) and the reduction of \u201cbad\u201d cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol).<\/li>\n
  • Helps in the prevention of cognitive impairment and dementia<\/li>\n
  • Contributes to increased survival and longevity<\/li>\n
  • Protects against the risk of hypertension<\/li>\n
  • May increase protection against certain types of cancer<\/li>\n
  • Supports the maintenance of a healthy body weight<\/li>\n
  • Has antibiotic and antiviral action<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Scientific committees of EFSA and AECOSAN, the European and Spanish authorities on food safety and nutrition respectively, state that this benefit is obtained with the intake of 5 mg of polyphenols per day.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/span>\n

    In Extra Virgin Olive Oil, we can find beneficial polyphenols such as:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Oleurope\u00edna<\/strong>: compuesto fen\u00f3lico responsable del amargor y del ligero picor caracter\u00edstico del aceite de oliva virgen extra. Destaca por su elevada capacidad antioxidante.<\/li>\n
    • Oleocanthal<\/strong>: compuesto fen\u00f3lico presente en determinados AOVEs. Es objeto de un creciente inter\u00e9s cient\u00edfico por su actividad biol\u00f3gica y su potencial en diferentes \u00e1reas de investigaci\u00f3n biom\u00e9dica.<\/li>\n
    • Hidroxitirosol<\/strong>: uno de los polifenoles m\u00e1s potentes presentes en el aceite de oliva virgen extra. Es ampliamente reconocido por su elevada capacidad antioxidante y por contribuir a la protecci\u00f3n de las c\u00e9lulas frente al estr\u00e9s oxidativo.<\/li>\n
    • Tirosol<\/strong>: compuesto fen\u00f3lico natural que act\u00faa junto con otros polifenoles del aceite de oliva. Su actividad antioxidante y su estabilidad lo convierten en un componente de inter\u00e9s para la investigaci\u00f3n sobre salud y envejecimiento.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      In order to maintain all the beneficial properties, and a high level of polyphenols, Biosasun<\/strong> recolecta el fruto en su momento id\u00f3neo, y mantiene un riguroso sistema de elaboraci\u00f3n. El aceite de oliva aporta lo mejor de la naturaleza, adem\u00e1s, al ser Ecol\u00f3gico, no contiene ninguna sustancia t\u00f3xica.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/span>\n
