A study recommends consuming between 4 and 5 tablespoons of virgin olive oil a day to prevent osteoporosis

NNOLIVA is committed to the R + D + i area to ensure that extra virgin olive oil maintains all of its properties. 

Madrid, January 27, 2017. 

According to the study, the daily consumption of virgin olive oil reduces up to 51% the risk of suffering an osteoporotic fracture due to its protective effect on the bone structure. Mónica Bulló and Jordi Salas-Salvadó, the scientists responsible for the research, attribute these results to the action of some components of liquid gold such as polyphenols or fat.

After a follow-up of 9 years to 870 people, researchers have come to the conclusion that the recommended amount to reduce the risk of this type of fractures are between 4 and 5 tablespoons of virgin olive oil a day.

It is the first time that the benefits of liquid gold for the bones are revealed. However, the positive effects of unsaturated fat in olive oil were recently highlighted by the Cardiometabolic Risk Research Group and the Endocrinology and Nutrition Service of the Hospital Clínico de Valencia. According to this study, it causes certain beneficial changes in metabolism during and after digestion.

INNOLIVA has always underlined the importance of introducing olive oil in our diet as one of the key elements, in order to use it as a «natural weapon» against a multitude of diseases.

This fundamental element of Mediterranean gastronomy has antioxidant power, prevents cardiovascular diseases, is a natural anti-inflammatory and helps control «bad cholesterol» or diabetes and prevent others such as breast cancer or obesity.

One of the great bets of the Navarre company has been the R + D + i area for a long time, from where it constantly analyzes and develops projects, such as its already well-known ‘intelligent fields’, which aim to move towards a model of work more sustainable and effective and, at the same time, promote and discover all the beneficial effects of olive oil.

The president of INNOLIVA, Miguel Rico, is committed to continue the production of an Extra Virgin Olive Oil of excellence that maintains each and every one of its properties. In addition, it recommends the bet for the extra virgin category since it is where the true excellence of the juice of olives is.
