Description: Researchers from three American universities, Auburn, Temple and Yale School of Public Health, are starting a new research project along with conducting a clinical trial at Auburn University to evaluate the effect of high phenolic olive oil, mainly oleocanthal, in healthy people with a family history of Alzheimer's disease.
Their primary purpose is to study and investigate the effect of adding EVOO to the daily diet of healthy volunteers and whether it could be protective in people with a family history of Alzheimer's, usually associated with a genetic predisposition.
Long-term synergies with researchers, scientific institutions and medical schools in areas related to the improvement of human health are at the core of Sakellaropoulos Organic Farms.
With our organic olive oils and table olives, due to their very high content of health-protective ingredients, university studies, as well as clinical research, are carried out in renowned institutions in Greece and abroad.
Scientific research proves that our organic olive products belong to the innovative Bio-Functional foods, known internationally under the terms Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals.
In the USA, clinical research and studies with our organic olive oils and table olives are conducted at the Schools of Public Health of Harvard and Yale Universities, as well as Auburn and Temple University departments, assisted by Yale School of Medicine, the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM)-Auburn Campus, the Department of Drug Discovery and Development at Auburn University's Harrison College of Pharmacy, as well as the Temple University Alzheimer's Research Center.
In Greece, three (3) clinical studies have already been carried out by the Department of Pharmacy of the National Kapodistrian University of Athens, in collaboration with the Hypertension Unit of the First University Cardiology Clinic of the Ippokratio General Hospital of Athens and the Biopathology Laboratory of the 401 General Military Hospital Athens.
