Discover Thousand Olives Oleocanthal
OLEOCANTHAL - THE PEPPERY POLYPHENOL WITH EXTRA HEALTH BENEFITS
Polyphenols from extra virgin olive oil are plant compounds with powerful antioxidant properties. They fight inflammation and protect the body from harmful free radicals that can damage the cells and contribute to premature aging and chronic diseases.
Extra virgin olive oil boasts a rich array of polyphenols, including oleocanthal, oleasin, oleuropein aglycone, ligstroside aglycone, tyrosol, and hydroxytyrosol. What makes oleocanthal stand out, beyond its distinctive peppery sensation, are its clinically supported benefits in promoting health, vitality, and longevity.

THE EARLIEST IBUPROFEN-OLIVE OIL CONNECTION
In 1999, Dr. Gary Beauchamp of the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia attended a molecular nutrition conference in Sicily. Invited to an olive oil tasting at a local mill, he noticed a familiar peppery aftertaste in a particular cultivar. This sensation reminded him of liquid ibuprofen, a pain, fever, and inflammation reliever known for its similar bitterness. It was then that Dr. Beauchamp made the initial connection between ibuprofen and olive oil.
