BELAIR Olive Oils are extracted from the first pressing of the highest quality and purity.
“Cold Pressed” – means that the olives never exceed a certain temperature during the entire pressing process– around 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Keeping the olives cooler ensures maximum quality. Heating produces lower quality olive oil. Cold pressed olive oil retains more nutrients than olive oils treated with heat. It's loaded with healthy fats, vitamins E and K, and several antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds. These nutrients may promote brain and heart health, in addition to other benefits.
''Extra Virgin'' - means that the olive oil is made from pure, cold-pressed olives, whereas regular olive oil is a blend, including both cold-pressed and processed oils, therefore 'Cold-Pressed' doesn't always mean 'Extra Virgin'. Any cold-pressed oil that doesn't meet extra-virgin standards is then refined to get rid of undesirable impurities, giving the oil a more neutral flavour and lighter colour.
High In Nutrients
As it’s virtually all fat, cold pressed olive oil is high in calories. However, its main type of fat, unsaturated fat, is incredibly healthy. Compared with diets high in saturated fat, those high in unsaturated fat are associated with a reduced risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and other chronic illnesses. Olive oil also boasts vitamins E and K. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant involved in immune function, while vitamin K plays a key role in blood clotting and bone health.
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of cold pressed olive oil supplies:
Cold pressed olive oil also contains at least 30 beneficial plant compounds, many of which are potent antioxidants with anti-inflammatory effects.
Packed With Healthy Fats
Health Board recommends that you consume 20–35% of your calories from fat, mainly the unsaturated type. Cold pressed olive oil comprises nearly all fat, with 71% coming from an unsaturated fat called oleic acid. Studies suggest that oleic acid and other unsaturated fats may help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol when used in place of saturated fats. An additional 11% of the fat in cold pressed olive oil comes from omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. These two unsaturated fats are involved in major bodily processes, such as blood pressure regulation, blood clotting, and immune system response. Although olive oil contains 2 grams of saturated fat per tablespoon (15 ml), this is well within the 13–22-gram daily limit recommended by most health authorities for a standard 2,000-calorie diet.
Cold pressed olive oil mainly comprises oleic acid, a fat that may help lower cholesterol. It also provides omega-6 and omega-3 fats, which are essential for your health.
Contains Potent Antioxidants
Cold pressed olive oil may retain more antioxidants than lower-grade olive oils since it isn’t treated with heat. Antioxidants defend your body against unstable molecules called free radicals. In turn, this helps ward off chronic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Per tablespoon (15 ml), olive oil contains 12.9% of the DV for vitamin E — an essential nutrient and potent antioxidant. It’s also rich in plant compounds like oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol, which have demonstrated powerful antioxidant properties in animal and test-tube studies. Researchers believe that these compounds may be partly responsible for the benefits of the Mediterranean diet, including stronger bones and a reduced risk of heart disease, brain conditions, and certain cancers.
Prolonged, low-grade inflammation is believed to factor into many conditions, including heart disease, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, and Alzheimer’s disease. Studies suggest that olive oil may help reduce inflammation due to its high concentration of healthy fats, antioxidants, and compounds like oleocanthal. Oleocanthal is a natural anti-inflammatory agent. Test-tube studies indicate that it acts similarly to ibuprofen, an anti-inflammatory drug. Including more plant-based options in your diet may reduce inflammation more effectively than relying on a single compound, nutrient, or food. Replacing foods high in saturated fat - such as butter, shortening, and lard - with cold pressed olive oil is an excellent place to start!
Diets high in cold pressed olive oil have been shown to support brain health. One example is the MIND (Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay) diet, which recommends primarily cooking with olive oil. It combines the traditional Mediterranean diet with the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet. In population studies, individuals following the MIND diet demonstrate slower declines in mental sharpness and memory with age, as well as after stroke. A 4.5-year study in 923 people found a 53% reduction in the rate of Alzheimer’s disease in those who most strictly adhered to the diet. The diet’s combination of brain-boosting foods may likewise be responsible for its benefits. Besides olive oil, the MIND diet is high in vegetables, berries, nuts, whole grains, and fish. It’s also low in sodium.
