EVOO FACT

What are Polyphenols?

Polyphenols are compounds naturally present in fruits and vegetables. There are 8000 different types of polyphenols. Polyphenols are abundant in extra virgin olive oil; some is found in virgin olive oil. Refined olive oil only has trace amounts of polyphenols since most are removed during refining. This is why quality matters.

The intake of polyphenols, in appropriate concentrations, can present promising effects in the prevention of diseases such as diabetes, obesity, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and others, and they have been proven to help prevent diabetes, obesity, cancer, cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases.

The most common Polyphenols in the human diet are:

  • Flavonoids,
  • Phenolic Acids and
  • Tannins.

Flanvonoids

Flavonoids are commonly found in fruits and vegetables. They play an important role in color and taste. In fact, they give a bitter taste to vegetables and extra virgin olive oil.

Studies have linked flavonoids intake with: the improvement of behavior and cognition, neuroinflammation decrease and attenuation of oxidative stress, attenuation of Alzheimer's associated symptoms, antimutagenic activity, reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, anti-proliferative action on tumor cells, atherosclerosis protection, radio-protective action, hair tonic, hormonal repository in natural menopause women and antimicrobial properties.

Phenolic Acids

Phenolic Acids give vegetables and extra virgin olive oil that sour and pungent tingly sensation that most people find delightful. They have a wide biological potential since they may act as antidepressant, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, antihyperglycemic, anticancer and anti-diarrheal. Extra Virgin Olive Oil is loaded with Phenolic Acids like: oleuropein, verbascoside, oleocanthal, hydroxytyrosol, tyrosol, and more others.

Tannins

Tannins make vegetables bitter and astringent and give your mouth that dry feeling. Besides being considered good natural antioxidants, they are also considered to be cardioprotective agents, antitumor, anti-bacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulator, besides to enhance glucose uptake and inhibit adipogenesis.
