Nutritional values of Di Niso extra virgin olive oil
Thanks to the characteristics of our land, the love, and passion for our work, we create a high-quality product that satisfies the palate while keeping an eye on health. Di Niso extra virgin olive oil, made from the Coratina monocultivar olive, has important nutritional values, as detailed below.
For 100 ml, Di Niso monocultivar Coratina extra virgin olive oil provides 824 calories. Therefore, it is always necessary to use it in moderation as part of a balanced diet to reap its maximum benefits. Its nutritional values include 91.6 g of fat, divided as follows:
- 12.5 g of saturated fat
- 71 g of monounsaturated fat
- 8.1 g of polyunsaturated fat.
The composition of fats predominantly consists of monounsaturated fats (71g / 100ml of product), which, due to their specific chemical structure, remain in a liquid state at room temperature. These fats have significant beneficial properties as they contribute to heart health and help reduce bad cholesterol levels.
Furthermore, Di Niso extra virgin olive oil is characterized by very low acidity, meaning it has a low percentage of free fatty acids, which is a clear sign of freshness. Only timely cultivation and processing can ensure an extra virgin olive oil with excellent organoleptic properties that is also genuine and long-lasting.
Another indicator of its quality is the absence of salt and carbohydrates, which in excessive amounts can affect health and physical fitness. On the other hand, it is rich in vitamins, particularly vitamin E, which is essential for cellular renewal, and vitamin K, crucial for bone health. Last but not least, extra virgin olive oil is rich in polyphenols, phytochemical compounds with multiple therapeutic qualities that also contribute to its characteristic bitter and spicy taste. Among these compounds, we find oleuropein, an antioxidant that reduces the risk of chronic diseases and counters free radicals responsible for cellular aging. Additionally, compounds like tyrosol and luteolin contribute to cardiovascular health. In short, it is a true essence of well-being!
All these important nutritional qualities make Di Niso extra virgin olive oil from the Coratina monocultivar an excellent ally for health, even at the dining table.
