I’m in the UK and tried this olive oil that you showed in this video and in an older video a few months back. It’s honestly the most tasty quality olive oil I’ve had, changes the taste of a normal salad. I’m sure there are some other great ones locally in Italy, Spain and Portugal too and maybe cheaper as not imported to the UK. This one lasted a while but is £20 a bottle! It’s worth it for me but I can imagine some people can’t afford it 😢 . I don’t remember it saying Organic on the bottle but I will check when I next buy it. Sometimes it’s organic but the certificate to get organic is so expensive that they don’t bother. Amazing product thanks for mentioning it, as there are so many brands.

Make sure your olive oil is cold pressed or first pressed olive oil, which means it is not processed or destroyed by the heat processing. Make sure it is organic, it is made in Italy or the Mediterranean, and that it doesn't have any excipients and that it is pure, unadulterated olive oil. Make sure it's a slight green in color. And a slight thick consistency, that has a mildly strong taste. 🌞

Great video Dr. Berg! Nice to see another EVOO advocate stress that there is a real difference between the grocery store evoo and the real, pure evoo. However, please don't stress on the itchy/prickly feeling in the throat. Not everyone experiences this, and, the variety of the olive used is another major factor. Arbequina olives are some of, if not the mildest. They're usually more fruity and buttery. The polyphenol count on the Arbequina olive will be lower than say a Koroneiki olive. Koroneiki olives tend to be stronger in flavour, more robust, grassy, herby, with a peppery undertone or finish, and a much higher polyphenol count naturally. Also, each harvest will have a different taste and polyphenol count due to many contributing factors - weather, water, oil content in the olive, when it was picked vs when it was pressed, etc. I've had customers sample Arbequina and cough, and then I've had customers who don't feel a thing. Plus, once you start to consume a proper and true EVOO, the burn/itch/cough will go away. Another huge thing to look for is a harvest and/or bottle date. Olives are harvested once a year. In Northern California its late October, early to mid November. In Australia it will be earlier in the year as their summers are in our winters. Also, don't underestimate EVOO grown and produced in Northern California, EVOO produced overseas can be incredible, but not always an option due to cost for most people. Some of the multigenerational family groves there produce some absolutely amazing, delicious, pure, locally, nationally, and internationally awarded EVOO. A lot of the EVOO produced there is also certified pure through a council that has rigid and strict requirements for certification. If you're interested in more information, let me know!

It's good that there's videos like this that just came out that I can send him and also learn some new things for myself too.

Great to hear! I am from Croatia and feel grateful to have my own olive trees and oil

Long time ago, maybe 10y or so, when spending some time on the isle of Crete, southern part, a village called Pitsidia. I was given a plastic 1.5L water bottle filled with locally produced very green olive oil by the owner of the house I was staying at. He also had an olive tree garden nearby. Best olive oil I ever tasted.

Dr Berg is totally brilliant, thank you very much, if,you are reading this Dr Berg..from London ❤️💯

Thanks Dr Berg for your easy to watch EV Olive Oil video. To the point. Love it. I’ve been taking about two dessert spoons of EVOO every day for about three weeks and I believe it is reinvigorated my life considerably, I’m 73, my arthritis I’m sure has lessened considerably and brain fog I feel I had for years has lifted as well. Amazing stuff.

I do buy organic olive oil directly from italy and a small family farm and agree on the burning spicy sensation, mine is really spicey. At least some itching when its a good olive oil high in polyphenols. If you care less about taste but more about health benefits then I would pay attention to its spiciness since thats an indicator that the olive oil has high levels of polyphenols which are beneficial and what you want

Eating organic is so important! Thanks for getting the message out.

Here in Portugal we use extra virgin olive oil hundreds years ago, we have an olive tree with 3000 years, portuguese consume over 8 liters year

"Ah, this brings back memories! The best olive oil experience I've ever had was during a trip to the South of France. There, olive oil tasting wasn't just with bread but directly with a spoon. The highlight? The unique dessert at Byblos Hotel in Saint Tropez - fraise (strawberries) drizzled with olive oil. I've since made it a habit to recreate this with organic strawberries. Not only is it a delightful treat, but hearing that it's beneficial for health makes it even better! 🍓✨🇫🇷"

Before I buy EVOO I always test to see if is adulterated or not....with kinesiology. In Slovenija of the former Yugoslavia, I lived in a tiny hamlet where the olives were harvested, then pressed into the incredible green-gold oil....something that I really miss along with our wines!

It doesn't always hurt or create a prickly feeling in the back of your throat it depends on the variety of the of olive itself. this one you refer to is a mix of two varieties Frantoio and Moraioto. One being stronger than the other, they are blended but both are very fruity which creates the itch to the throat. They can be fruity, bitter or soft in flavor and used for different things, frying, salads, or special to drizzle on plates at the end. Italy has so many varieties as does Spain and Greece. To tell people it just has to be prickly to get a good oil is not true.

Dr. Berg I bought a bottle of the olive you recommend. It not only came in a dark GLASS bottle but was shipped in a box. It DOES taste different! VERY peppery finish. I can eat olive oil with food and have no problems. This morning I ingested 2 tablespoons on an empty stomach. It is cleaning me out, like a laxative, but also I have a lot of nausea. I took ginger root and Pepto but the nausea continues. I used a tablespoon measuring spoon. Did I take took much or is this just my body not being used to this?

Right doc but I could not tolerate the itchy sensation in the throat so had to opt for medium olive 🫒 oil instead. Xtra virgin was also quite unpleasant otherwise as well being bitter in taste.😢

Thanks for the presentation and analysis. I'm living in Thailand. I get what I can get. I go through lots of olive oil. Cold pressed extra virgin is the best I can do. 64 .. still running hills and train muay thai every other day.. 85..90 degrees. I'm still in the game..

I am afraid it is not so simple - while that "throat test" may apply to some kinds of olive oil typicalyl produced in italy, in fact olive oil can be a varied as wine - depending on the olives used, their ripeness when picked, the way the olives are handled and how fast they are processed etc etc. different countries also prefer different tastes of olive oil. An "extra vergine" oil made from over-ripe olives which spent three days on a lorry will have much less quality than if the same olives were picked while still green, cooled and processed immediately. As a rule of thumb, spanish, portuguese and greek olive oils are usually milder, as they thend to harvest the olives later when they are ripe and black, which gives good olive oil an almost buttery, warm, mild taste, and this oil can usually be used well for cooking, whereas the french and Italians like a more "grassy" taste which comes from harvesting the olives early just before they become ripe, and they are better used for salads, pestos and other cold or mildly wearm food. There are also different kinds of olives for oil (and lets not forget the other olive varieties grown for eating) each with their own taste. Unfiltered oil from green olives must be used quickly, for cold dishes only and is rarely available, but once you tried it, ideally just with a slice of that italian bread and with some seasalt, you never go back. Also, Algeria, Tunisia, but also the countries of the levante, they all produce lots of olives and there are more and more small producers sticking to quality - they are just more difficult to find. OTOH, Italy produces and exports much much more "italien olive oil" than the olive trees there are able to produce - because it is sufficient for an olive oil to be "italian" if the olives, sometimes shipped for days across the mediterranean sea, are only pressed in Italy. The same may happen in Spain and other countries. Therefore, if you have the chance to buy verified locally produced olive oil, absolutely do so, and do not hesitate to buy that 5l or 10l canister - you will use it, and/or can share with friends and family. I also hear that in california, some excellent olive oil is available, but it may be the exception, not the rule.

I always had olive oil in every daily meal, I am the only one in the family who is not fat and never needed glasses.

Dr Berg, I highly encourage you to look for and check the benefits of "early harvest extra virgin oil". Its colour is green and has even more polyphenols. It's the best olive oil you can have and the most reputable in Greece. I also have the impression that olives, before they go under the procedure to remove their bitter taste, are richer in polyphenols than olive oil.

in France, in Nice or in Corsica, we have olive oil of extraordinary quality, it is very difficult to find on the market, but it has this taste characteristic that scrapes the throat. I use liters and liters...

One of the many blessings of living in San Diego is that I'm able to get local olive oil. The olives are grown and pressed just a 45-minute drive away (30 minutes in the Tesla) by a company called, Temecula Olive Oil. They have a few different varieties (and degrees of ripeness) you can choose from, and they all taste Heavenly. Pricey, yes, at $25 for a 12-ounce dark bottle, but so well worth it.

First thing in the morning take a table spoon of a thick paste of olive oil mixed with dried & grounded thyme leaves & sesame seeds; after a few hours it will clean you out very well.

If you don't see any added sugars, caramel colorings, additives or preservatives on the ingredient list (which there absolutely should not be any of if it's real balsamic vinegar and vinegar itself is a preservative), then the sugar content you're seeing are naturally occurring. A good quality Balsamic Vinegar is made with grape must (think of Ethel and Lucy stomping in the pit of grapes) and a very high quality red wine vinegar. A high quality balsamic will have such a beautiful, velvety, smooth, rich, and intense flavor that you will only need a small amount.

Interesting, do you know which variety of olives they grow there(?)

Hence why here in the UK we're so mad about the 'Mediterranean diet' with all that virgin oil.

Dr. Berg, as always your information is inspiring and sound. Please clarify your preferred olive oil from the website that you recommend as the link takes you to a non-organic olive oil "Laudemio" and you specifically state in your video the value of an organic olive oil. There is an organic olive oil on their website but the link that you provided takes you to the non-organic one so which one do you recommend for the most health benefit?

I just love the way you explain things

Thank you Dr Berg for this health information, regarding olive!🤗 I love olive oil inside and out. And, I have No Doubt!😂 P.S. Do you Dr. Berg or anyone reading this, know or have used "Zucchi organic extra virgin olive oil from italy? If so, what are your thoughts? Thank you! 😊❤️

The itchiness in the throat comes from an old olive oil that is usually over 12 months. they even have a separate name for it where they have been using their own produced olive oil for thousands of years. New olive oil, the first few weeks, is more green and bitter. Then turns yellow and loses bitterness and very smooth. When it is old, it turn a little darker and develops the throat itchiness.

Its really alarming how many "chemicals and ingredients" are banned in Europe you Americans consume daily.

Yes it should be criminal what they put in the food and say it’s safe. And they wonder why Americans are fat. The food pyramid is wrong and they won’t update it . Too many lobbyists pushing the bad stuff as good.

I'd like to try your recommended oil. The best olive oil I've ever tasted was in Croatia. We brought home a huge pop bottle of it, lol.

Great to hear that ! Can you tell more where did you eat oil in Croatia ? I am from Croatia, and I have my own olives so I am curious about your answer and would like to know :)

Just gotta say I love olive oil as I don’t eat any other oils besides olive, so glad to know that it has a lot of benefits and can help us with so many other things ❤ Love you doctor 👨‍⚕️

You're very welcome.

In Australia we have a lot of EVOO , grown , in many cases grown by Italians in the grape region that has a similar climate and soils to Italy. The one I get has a slight grassy/ peppery taste. I have 20 mls of oil with 20 mls of ACV every night as it really helps with sleep as well. You can feel the difference.🇦🇺Thankyou Dr Berg !

Love your stuff, thank you doctor 🙏 i just received it today. Very tasty but cost me about $90 on Amazon!!

Wow, amazing. Thanks for sharing this story.

Thank You Dr Berg for the truth about all oils, good and bad. Saturated Oils are needed on the skin and help to digest many vitamins and minerals. Saturated fats are extremely important to health. Oils and understanding oils changed my life and how I found Dr Berg 5 years ago. 👍👍👍👍👍. I lost 80 pounds eating fat.

The problem is finding authentic olive oil. So much of what you find on shelf stores is loaded with anything but olive oil.

I've ordered from the farm he recommends twice. I love the oil and great customer service.

I drink macadamia nut oil. It seems to have a better ratio of omega-3 fats.

Great video Dr. Berg! Thanks for the tipps!

Very interesting. That said, I was also wondering if olive oil is extremely estrogenic(?)

Any thoughts on Gly-NAC and Taurine? Real olive oil also has a peppery taste.....YUM!
