The benefits generated by organic farming are innumerable and are valid both for our land and for the consumer.

Buying organic products means choosing healthier and more beneficial products for your health, but it also means personally contributing to safeguarding your planet's resources.

Several scientific studies have shown that including organic extra virgin olive oil in your daily diet is a real panacea for your body, mind, and heart, and helps extend your life expectancy.

Among the benefits:

Heart-healthy: thanks to its richness in monounsaturated fatty acids, it is a precious companion for our heart health, useful for preventing cardiovascular disorders and the risk of thrombosis, strokes, and heart attacks.

Prevents and fights diabetes: together with a balanced diet, organic oil helps reduce blood sugar swings after meals.

Fights hypertension: Numerous studies show that the phenolic compounds present in organic oil play a fundamental role in preventing hypertension, but also in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients.

Against neurodegenerative diseases: its polyphenols have a beneficial effect on the brain, helping to reduce the risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

Prevents high cholesterol: its composition rich in monounsaturated fatty acids helps keep bad cholesterol levels under control, without affecting the amount of good cholesterol.

It's good for the gut: in addition to its emollient and calming effects on the gastrointestinal tract, polyphenols provide anti-inflammatory properties, especially in the case of conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and colitis. It's also highly digestible and promotes stomach and intestinal health, thanks to its mild laxative properties.

Anti-inflammatory and analgesic action: the presence of polyphenols and antioxidants promotes the anti-inflammatory action on our body and has a protective role on the immune system, thus preventing many autoimmune diseases.

Anti-aging properties: It is a natural source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects our cell membranes from the aging process. It is also a mild vasodilator, antithrombotic, and a true strengthener of capillary walls, capable of regulating hormone production and promoting an increase in good cholesterol.
