Can I take this olive oil pure?
Yes, many customers take a full tablespoon daily purely for the proven health benefits.
Should you take this olive oil pure for the health benefits?
No, it's not. The method of intake or how you eat it doesn't matter. If you don't like the taste of olive oil, you can also use it instead of butter on your sandwich or cracker, in your soup, pasta sauce, on your potatoes, etc. Although suitable for baking and roasting, higher temperatures do reduce the polyphenol content.

If stored cool (between 12 and 21 degrees Celsius), an unopened bottle will remain good until its expiration date . This is 18-24 months after bottling.
Once opened, your olive oil will retain its quality for up to 3 or 4 months, or until its best-before date. Read our blog for more information on How to Best Store Extra Virgin Olive Oil .
