Everything about the olive tree, olive oil, derivatives and its health and science in one place.

We are the Olive Health Institute. An international platform where science, health, and centuries-old knowledge about the olive tree come together.

We collect and share scientifically proven information about the powerful effects of substances from the olive tree, including extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and its derivates, such as polyphenols and antioxidants. These substances are not only valuable nutrients but also contribute to maintaining good health. From current research to centuries-old applications, our goal is to make knowledge accessible to everyone who wants to know what the olive tree has to offer.
