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.

Recipes using our olive oils and vinegars

Hi, to give you all an idea of some of the wonderful dishes you can create with our products, why not check-out the recipes section of our website - recipes using olive oil

My personal favourite are the roast spuds. I'd always used regular veg oil until I saw Jamie Oliver use olive oil for roast spuds on one of his TV shows.  Not only does it taste great, but it's actually healthy!!!

We also have some recipes which can be prepared using our vinegars.  Let us know what you think by commenting on this post.  We really appreciate your feedback.
