Our Extra Virgin Olive Oil stands out in a jungle of olive oils
With Approved EFSA Health Claim: Contributes to the prevention of LDL-oxidation.
Description
Since we have high demands on the olive oil we use for our unique mix of fish oil in ArcticMed Omega-3 Premium, we often get the question of how to find an olive oil like the one we use.
The short answer:
You have to put in time, money, and effort.
A little longer answer:
We put great effort into finding, at each harvest season, producers who manage to produce an oil with the highest possible content of a number of bioactive substances that we consider to be of utmost importance.
This means that we send a number of extra virgin olive oils from different manufacturers to be analyzed at an independent laboratory.
Unfortunately, only a few producers are able to meet the criteria we set up.
Only Extra Virgin Olive Oil that meets all the extreme requirements we have set up will be used in the secret blend of ArcticMed Omega-3 Premium.
Any extra supply will be sold in limited edition 500ml bottles.
Since this is a truly limited edition, we have chosen to sell the olive oil only through our webshop and at the same price to all customers (resellers and end customers).
Warm greetings

Season 23/24
Due to dry weather conditions in Spain, the harvest was extremely low in volume. The price for the last seasons olive oil is the highest since I started to buy olive oil in bulk. Hopefully we will be back to normal volume next harvest.
As many of you may know, I have extreme quality demands on the olive oil that I mix with the fish oil in what becomes ArcticMed Omega-3 Premium. Some years, there will also be enough extra virgin olive oil to be bottled separately in limited edition, bottles.
My demands for the content of healthy substances are extreme, which unfortunately makes it hard to find a supplier who can deliver an olive oil that meets my criteria.

Discover the Remarkable Health Benefits of ArcticMed Extra Virgin Olive Oil
We're thrilled to share that ArcticMed Extra Virgin Olive Oil isn't just a delight for your taste buds; it's also a powerhouse of health benefits, validated by rigorous scientific analysis. Our oil has proudly passed the stringent tests of an accredited laboratory, confirming that it not only meets but exceeds the essential benchmarks required to carry the esteemed EFSA health claim. Dive into the details with the certificate we've provided below.
In the heart of the European Union's commitment to public health, Regulation (EU) No. 432/2012 was established, outlining a list of sanctioned health claims for food products. Among these, an exciting authorization stands out for olive oil enthusiasts: the claim that olive oil polyphenols contribute significantly to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. This is based on human studies that have demonstrated a marked reduction in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels—often referred to as 'bad cholesterol'—following the consumption of virgin olive oil.
To bear this claim, an olive oil must contain no less than 5 mg of hydroxytyrosol and its derivatives for every 20 g of olive oil, which is roughly the amount in one tablespoon. Research indicates that phenolic compounds found in virgin olive oil, such as oleuropein, tyrosol, and hydroxytyrosol, play a key role in these heart-healthy effects. The magic number? A daily intake of 20 g of olive oil meeting these health claim criteria.
We invite you to explore the certificate of analysis that attests to the high quality and healthful properties of our ArcticMed Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Join us in embracing a deliciously healthy lifestyle, one tablespoon at a time.
