ARISTOLEO AWARDS 2018 – HIGH PHENOLIC TABLE OLIVES

Thank you to all the participants and the countless supporters in our effort to promote the health benefits of Greek olives.

ARISTOLEO AWARDS 2018 is the world’s only high phenolic olive competition to support health, vitality and long life. It promises to open a new era in research to expand the health benefits of high phenolic olives.

These olives can provide significant levels of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant phenolic content. Each olive may contain from 1–3gm of olive flesh. Eating 5 olives a day assures you receive the minimum requirement of 5 mg per day to have a potentially beneficial effect.

Hydroxytyrosol and Tyrosol in olives was analyzed using the NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance). We awarded the olives with the highest combined amounts of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol. Aristoleo Awards 2018 Gold Silver and Bronze medals not only honor the producers but also indicate how many olives to consume per day to have a potentially beneficial effect.

“LET FOOD BE THY MEDICINE AND LET MEDICINE BE THY FOOD” Hippocrates

GOLD AWARD – 3 to 5 OLIVES A DAY provides 5-9 mg of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol

SILVER AWARD –  4 to 7 OLIVES A DAY priovides 5-9 mg of hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol
