Description
Zimms Organics sources only the finest olives in California, period. That means working with small family farms who have been purveyors of their craft for decades.
HEAL is high in polyphenols which are like super antioxidant micronutrients found in healthy plant-based foods. These polyphenols give high quality organic extra virgin olive oil their incredible health benefits such as: heart health, reducing cholesterol levels, lowering blood pressure, hair & skin health, reduces inflammation in the body and many more. The level of polyphenols varies based on region grown, ripeness at harvest, extraction methods, etc.
Flavor Profile: Medium – Bright, grassy and white peppery with a light finish.
The intensity of an EVOO relates to the amount of bitterness and peppery notes experienced while tasting. An olive oil that doesn’t tickle or burn the back of your throat is considered mild (low polyphenols – 100-200). A very peppery and bitter olive oil that will likely make you cough from the sensation on the back of your throat is considered strong (350-500+ polyphenols).
How to Use: Try taking a shot of this EVOO 15-30 minutes before consuming food in the morning. This may help with gut support / maintenance while repairing your intestinal tract over time (results may vary). The HEAL EVOO also functions beautifully as a finishing oil. HEAL pairs perfectly when drizzled over steak in a chimichurri or when used as the base of a salad dressing. HEAL handles well being cooked in heat as well because its 331 polyphenols (mg/kg) will protect the EVOO from oxidizing up to around 400-450 F.
Storage: The FDA says that olive oil is best consumed within 18 months of the harvest date. Quality extra virgin olive oil should be stored in a cool, dark space. The bottle should be dark or painted glass to protect the EVOO from UV light. If stored in optimal conditions, EVOO will only lose a minimal amount of potency and flavor profiles after that 18 month mark. Zimms Organics bottles are painted with organic matte ink, which completely protects your EVOO from light.
