The project: Ecoprolive
THE ORIGIN
Isanatur, the mother company of Ecoprolive, began research on the olive, the Mediterranean superfood par excellence, in 2012. Detect the multiple health benefits of some components, such as polyphenols, and how to enhance and concentrate them.
THE
ECOPROLIVE PATENT
The development of the conclusions gives rise to the Ecoprolive Patent, a unique and exclusive process for the extraction of the greatest amount of polyphenols, oleocanthal and other highly beneficial components for health.
100% NATURAL
EVOO AND PREBIOTIC
The process produces innovative products, such as our range of highly healthy EVOOs and "PreBIOphenol”, the prebiotic olive fiber. With them, we also make a range of 6 olive seasonings and the “Olibar” antioxidant energy bars.
THE EUROPEAN FOOD SAFETY AUTHORITY, EFSA, SETS A MINIMUM OF 5MG OF ANTIOXIDANTS TO CONSIDER AN EVOO HEALTHY FOR CARDIOVASCULAR EFFECTS.

The beneficial components: Polyphenols and Oleocanthal.
Polyphenols and oleocanthal are two of the highly healthy components that make our products unique.
POLYPHENOLS are antioxidant compounds found in olives in large proportions, which is why oil has been “the great preservative” since ancient times . At the digestive level, they provide a perfect balance to the diet. They improve intestinal irrigation and reduce vascular congestion in small arteries, avoiding the funnel effect.
OLEOCANTHAL is a natural phenolic compound found in high quality extra virgin olive oil and is obtained from pressing at low temperatures. It is the parameter that determines how healthy an EVOO is and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties similar to those of ibuprofen, a medication commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compound that inhibits the activity of cyclooxygenase enzymes.
International innovation
ISANATUR is a company focused on agri-food innovation, research is in our DNA. In addition to participating in various European H2020 projects, we lead others such as UP4HEALTH , which aims to develop new HIGH ADDED VALUE FOOD INGREDIENTS, biologically based, that are biofunctional and beneficial to health.
