OlivinoLife introduces supplement based on Mediterranean Diet

5/31/2017

DAVIS, Calif. — OlivinoLife on Wednesday launched Olivino, the first Mediterranean Diet supplement, according to the company. Olivino combines non-GMO bioactive ingredients derived from Mediterranean Diet staple foods including olives, grapes and tomatoes.



"The Mediterranean Diet is rich in 'functional' ingredients including plant-based polyphenols and antioxidants from olive pulp, grape seeds and skins, and lycopene, the most powerful antioxidant carotenoid from tomatoes," stated Clare Hasler-Lewis, CEO OlivinoLife. "Most of us don't eat these foods every day, so we developed Olivino to provide the basics of the Mediterranean Diet in a convenient form."



The Mediterranean Diet is the most-researched eating pattern in the world. In 2010, the United States Department of Agriculture and the Department of Health and Human Services identified the Mediterranean Diet as a healthy eating pattern in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, OlivinoLife noted.  In 2015, the Dietary Guidelines renewed its recommendation of the Mediterranean Diet as a premier healthy eating pattern.



Each 2-capsule daily serving of Olivino contains extracts from more than 300 grapes, 30 olives and five large tomatoes. Each serving also includes less than a gram of fiber. The olive extract in Olivino is an exclusive ingredient from selected olives from southern Italy with a very high polyphenol content.
