Frequently Asked Questions

Is 7Thirty suitable for the Mediterranean diet?

Absolutely. High phenolic olive oil is the cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet, linked to cardiovascular health, reduced inflammation, and longevity. 7Thirty exceeds the EU health claim threshold of 250mg/kg polyphenols.

Why does the polyphenol content vary by year?

Polyphenol levels depend on harvest timing, weather conditions, and olive ripeness. Early harvest olives (green) yield higher polyphenols. We lab-test each batch and publish the results so you know exactly what you're getting.

Can I cook with 7Thirty olive oil?

While you can cook with it, we recommend using 7Thirty as a finishing oil to preserve its polyphenols. High heat can degrade beneficial compounds. Drizzle over finished dishes, salads, or take a tablespoon raw for maximum health benefits.

How should I store 7Thirty olive oil?

Store in a cool, dark place away from heat and light. Keep the bottle tightly sealed. Unlike wine, olive oil doesn't improve with age—use within 12-18 months of harvest for maximum polyphenol content.

Why does high phenolic olive oil taste bitter or peppery?

The bitter and peppery taste comes from polyphenols, particularly oleocanthal. This compound triggers the same receptors as ibuprofen, creating that distinctive throat sensation.

What does the throat sensation indicate?

The 'throat catch' or slight cough when swallowing is caused by oleocanthal, a powerful anti-inflammatory compound. This sensation is a quality indicator — it means the oil contains high levels of beneficial polyphenols. It's perfectly normal and actually desirable.

Is high phenolic EVOO suitable for daily use?

Yes! The EU health claim (Regulation 432/2012) recommends 20g (about 1.5 tablespoons) daily of high phenolic olive oil to obtain the protective effects on blood lipids from polyphenols. 7Thirty is designed for daily wellness use as a finishing oil or taken directly.
