Rich in nutrients, completely natural and eco-friendly
Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is made from olives from organic farming that are healthy and at their optimum ripeness point
In the mills, mechanical procedures or physical means are used in specially controlled conditions, which do not alter the oil.
We can define organic farming as a system of agricultural production that is characterized by using only the natural resources available and whose purpose is to obtain products that are totally organic.
The use of synthetic products, such as pesticides, herbicides and artificial fertilizers, is avoided, thus achieving organic products that are totally natural, while conserving the fertility of the soil and respect for the environment. All this in a sustainable and balanced manner
Returning to a diet with natural products, which do not undergo industrial processes, has led us to value organic nutrition as part of a process of promoting health and preventing both metabolic and immunological diseases, among which are obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, among others.
We must bear in mind that our health is directly related to the food we eat, “we are what we eat”; therefore foods that optimize the relationship between food and health, providing benefits for the quality of life of the consumer and reducing their risk of suffering diseases are the challenge of the 21st century.
Advantages offered by organic EVOO
Its main advantages, not only for our health but also for the environment, are:
• Completely natural. The cultivation of this oil follows a process of low tillage and away from external elements, which results in this product keeping its primary composition. Organic products mature and accumulate nutrients naturally. It is one hundred percent olive juice and therefore retains all the qualities of this fruit.
• Pure flavour. By preserving all the properties of the fruit intact, it provides a greater intensity in its aromatic flavour. This is also because their harvesting is at the right time and their grinding is on the same day, so that the fruit does not lose its qualities.
• Benefits for health. In addition to the many beneficial effects of EVOO that are already known, we can add the fact of it being free of pesticides and other chemicals, agents that can be harmful to our body.
• Environmentally friendly. The ecological cultivation of olives, like that of any other ecological product, follows procedures for using natural resources and without using chemical products, so that minimal environmental impact occurs, thus maintaining balance in our natural environment.
• Guaranteed traceability. The production of any food includes traceability, but if we also add the rigorous controls that support organic farming, we have a product of guaranteed traceability.
• Certified quality. The fact that the food is certified makes the consumer feel safe. The Autonomous Communities are responsible for the control and certification of organic farming products through the authorities or bodies established by them. The logo and the labelling system is what guarantee the consumer that the product they buy is organic.
