ABOUT OLIVES OLIVES : • Evergreen trees native to the Mediterranean, Asia and parts of Africa. • Harvested at the young green stage or left to mature to become black. • Picked between September& end of November. • Fresh crop olives have a lively, tangy, slightly bitter flavour. • Mature olives, become milder and creamier.
HOW ARE THEY PROCESSED? • Green olives are processed in three principal ways: • Spanish style:includestreatment with sodium hydroxide solution (to eliminate bitterness), washing, brining, fermentation and packaging.
HOW ARE THEY PROCESSED? • 2. Natural Fermentation (Kalamata&Black olives) • Bitterness is eliminated slowly without Lye during the natural acid fermentation. The fruit is placed directly into brine • 3. The Californian method: includes lye treatment, washing, iron-salt treatment & air-oxidation, canning and sterilization.
MAJOR HEALTH BENEFITS OF OLIVES • Provide almost 3/4 of their fat as oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid. • Contain Vitamin E. • Contain polyphenols. The most important phenolic compounds are phenolic acids, phenolic alcohols, flavonoids, and secoiridoids (nutritionally interesting due to their antioxidant activities) • Contain squalene, that boosts immune function and helps reduce the risk of cancer, especially breast and stomach cancers. The combination of these elements allows olives to: • Protect the heart against diseases. • Protect cells from free radicals. Vitamin E together with the monounsaturated fat protects cells and fights off free radicals. • Reduce inflammation due to arthritis. Both green and black olives contain polyphenols and flavonoids that have anti-inflammatory properties.
