TERRA MYCENAE
Polyphenols & Human health
Olive oil is one of the most valuable treasures of the Mediterranean diet, known for its contribution to health and well‑being. Its beneficial action is primarily attributed to polyphenols ; natural compounds with strong antioxidant and anti‑inflammatory effects on the human body.
The Koroneiki variety, cultivated in our groves, is renowned for its naturally high polyphenol content. These compounds give the oil its refined bitter and spicy notes and serve as a key indicator of superior‑quality olive oil.
HEALTH CLAIM
Our olive oil meets the criteria of the european health claim on polyphenols (EU 432/2012).
A daily consumption of 20 g of TERRA MYCENAE organic olive oil allows the body to benefit from the full antioxidant action of its polyphenols.
