Seymours Oil wins Great Taste Award

Our Oils & Vinegars have won more awards, with news coming through today that our Hot Chilli & Lemon Olive Oil has won the one star award in the Great Taste Awards 2011. The judges noted:

"The oil has a nice colour and good smell with lemon coming through on the nose. There is a nice kick of chilli coming through."

Olive Oil - more health benefits

According to an article in the Daily Mail, olive oil helps to 'switch off' genes which lead to conditions including heart disease and arthritis.

Their discovery shows how the much-praised Mediterranean diet can suppress chronic disorders.

Spanish researchers identified almost 100 genes whose inflammatory activity is dampened by consumption of olive oil, in particular extra virgin olive oil.

The article goes on to say that eating healthy mono-unsaturated fats such as olive oil is known to lower the risk of heart disease. Britain, which has one of the highest heart attack rates in the world, much higher levels of animal or saturated fats are eaten, than compared to Mediterranean countries like Spain, Italy and Greece.

Health benefits of Olive Oil - cut Alzheimers risk

Incase you needed a reason to consume more of our lovely olive oil, there are many health benefits to olive oil. I came across an article today which suggests with a diet of olive oil, fish and nuts you are a 40% lower risk of developing Alzheimers!

According to the article more than 26 million people worldwide are affected by the disease. But adhering to some simple dietary rules could make an enormous difference to the incidence of this debilitating condition.

On Tap Olive Oil & Vinegars for Traders & Retailers
