Our range is based in some of the most significant Mediterranean products, such as olive oil, nuts and dried fruits.
Numerous scientific studies* describe the benefits of these foods, stating the following:
OLIVE OIL
The risk of suffering heart disease can be lowered if we eat monounsaturated fats from olive oil and foods containing olive oil instead of eating food with high levels of saturated fats, without increasing the total number of calories.
OLIVES
This fruit is of major agricultural importance in the Mediterranean region as the source of olive oil, consumed mainly as a starter and also used as an ingredient in numerous dishes of Mediterranean cuisine. They are nutritious and rich in mineral and provide essential vitamins and amino acids.
NUTS AND DRIED FRUITS
Nuts and dried fruits are a great source of dietary fibre and potassium. They also provide essential nutrients that are otherwise limited in today’s diets. Nuts and dried fruits are an excellent source of polyphenols and phenolic acids. These are chemical substances with antioxidant capacities with potential health benefits.
