Background

The benefits of olive oil consumption are becoming increasingly recognized.

Recently, the FDA permitted a claim on olive oil labels concerning:

“the benefits on the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) of eating about 2 tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil daily, due to the monounsaturated fat

(MUFA) in olive oil”.

However, if the effect of olive oil can be attributed solely to is MUFA content, any type of olive oil, rapeseed oil, or or MUFA-rich food would provide the same

health benefits.

Olive oil is the main source of fat in the Mediterranean Diet

Thus, Public Health implications exist as to whether a specific type of MUFA fat or olive oil should be recomended as individualized eating strategies for oxidative stress

associated diseases prevention

OLIVE OIL COMPONENTS

• Major components: Fatty acids– Saturated (8-14%)– Monounsaturated (oleic acid 55-83%)– Poliunsaturated (4-20%)

• Minor components:– Squalene, Sterols, triterpenes– Vitamin E, Beta-carotene– Phenolic compounds (tyrosol, hydroxytyrosol,

oleuropeine, lignanes).

The phenolic content of an olive oil varies, depending on the cultivar, climate, ripeness of the olives at harvesting, and the processing system for the type of olive oil:

Background

Olive oil phenolic compounds show:•strong antioxidant properties against free radical generation and LDL oxidation in experimental studies• delayed the progression of atherosclerosis in animal models.

Oleate-rich LDL is less susceptible against oxidative modification than linoleate-rich LDL.

There is increasing evidence that dietary phenolic compounds can modulate lipid and lipoprotein metabolism.

Oxidative damage of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is linked pathogenically to a variety of diseases such as cancer and also to ageing Low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation is a hallmark for atherosclerosis development.

Page 6: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Olive oil phenolic compounds are bioavailable in humans

Data regarding the benefits of olive oil phenolic compounds in humans from real-life daily doses of olive oil are controversial and scarce

The protective effects on lipid oxidation in these trials being better displayed in oxidative stress conditions

Carefully controlled studies in appropriate populations (i.e. oxidative stress conditions, or with a large sample size (in the case of healthy volunteers), are required to definitively establish the health properties of olive oil phenolic

compounds in humans.

No differences at baseline were observed among the three groups of olive oil administration order:

•For energy, macronutrients, or for the main antioxidant (vit E, beta-carotene...) or pro-oxidant intake (iron).

•For the evaluated end-points, with the exception of low levels of Ab-oxLDL in order 1 group and 8-dGuo in order 3 group (P<0.05).

The EUROLIVE Study. Results

No carryover effect, examined through the interaction treatment by period in the models, was observed for any outcome.

No changes in daily energy expenditure in leisure time physical activity were observed from the beginning to the end of the study (mean values, 282 vs 275 kcal/day).

Diet was similar in the three groups during each type of olive oil administration.

Consumption of 25 mL daily doses of all types of olive oil, as source of raw fat, reduced lipid cardiovascular risk factors, improved the

glutathione antioxidant status, and decreased oxidative DNA damage

Consumption of the olive oil with the high phenolic content (virgin) provided the highest benefits by increasing HDL cholesterol levels and

reducing the oxidative damage on lipids

Daily consumption of olive oils with medium and high phenolic content decreased oxidative damage on lipids.

Changes in biomarkers were modest, as was expected for the administration of real-life doses of a single food, during three weeks.

Our results supports the body of research concerning that a rich-MUFA diet can help to reduce triglycerides and raise HDL cholesterol, in

accordance with current cardiovascular guidelines.

The EUROLIVE Study. Comments

Our finding suggest an independent effect of olive oil phenolics increasing HDL-cholesterol levels.

The enhancement of HDL-cholesterol related with the phenolic content of the olive oil is in line with the results obtained after phenolic-rich

food conssumption in other human studies.

A 0.026 mmol/L increase in circulating HDL cholesterol levels is associated with a decrease from 1 to 3.6% in cardiovascular mortality, and with a 3.7% reduction of the risk to develop acute myocardial infarction (Stampfer MJ et al. JAMA 1996; 276: 882-8).

LPC, MPC, and HPC, olive oils with low (14.7 mg/Kg), medium (164 mg/Kg), and high (366 mg/Kg) phenolic content, respectively.

These risk decrements were based upon data from cohort

studies. Whether a HDL or triglycerides reduction due to

olive oil and its phenolic consumption would lead to these

decreases in CHD risk has not been established.

Page 28: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Oxidative damage to lipids decreased in a linear form with the phenolic content of olive oil, particularly in those markers directly associated with LDL oxidation.

Oxidation of the lipids present in LDL (measured by conjugated dienes and hydroxy fatty acids) or direct oxidation of the LDL protein led to a change into the lipoprotein conformation (measured by the levels of oxidized LDL) by which the LDL is more able to enter in the monocyte/macrophage system, inside the arterial wall, and promote the atherosclerotic process.

Circulating ox-LDL levels show a positive relationship with the severity of acute coronary syndromes and are biomarkers for CHD risk.

The EUROLIVE Study. Comments

Mechanisms involved could be the own antioxidant activity of the phenolic compounds and the combined protective effect of both the phenolic and the

MUFA content of the olive oil

The susceptibility of LDL to oxidation depends not only on its fatty content, but also

of the LDL content of antioxidants, such as vitamin E and phenolic compounds (Fuller CJ, Jialal I. Am J Clin Nutr.

Relationship between tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol in plasma and changes in the LDL phenolic content

Projected reduction in CHD risk associated with 25 mL olive

oil per day versus non olive oil consumption

After HPC olive oil a mean decrease of –3.2 U/L in oxidized

LDL was observed

Although several studies reported a direct relationship between oxidized

LDL and CHD risk, the attributable CHD risk associated with a 1U/L

change of oxidized LDL is, at present, unknown.

In a recent study, the mean difference, in circulating oxidized LDL values

between CHD patients and healthy controls, measured using the same

antibody and method as in the present study, was 17 U/L.

Page 33: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Limitations of the study

The EUROLIVE Study. Comments

Inability to determine whether an interaction between olive oil components and others from diet could account for the changes in cardiovascular risk factors observed, which might affect the generalizability of the results due to dietary differences among countries.

The overall inter-country consistency of the results, however, contributes to the generalizability of the message.

Our design, did not allow modeling the first- and second-order possible carryover effects. The measurements of dietary intake relied on self-reporting and were therefore subjective.

Although the trial was blinded, some participants might have identified the low phenolic olive oil (LPC) or the high phenolic content (HPC) by their color and taste and, not liking them, masking a lack of full compliance despite a good overall compliance.

Page 34: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Consumption of all types of olive oil provide benefits on the cardiovascular risk profile, antioxidant endogenous defences (GSH), and oxidative DNA damage, without modifying levels of antioxidant endogenous enzymes.

The results of the study show that olive oil is more than a MUFA fat.

The phenolic content of an olive oil can account for greater benefits on blood lipids and oxidative damage than those provided by the MUFA content of the olive oil.

The results of the EUROLIVE study provide evidence to recommend the use of olive oil rich in phenolic compounds as a source of fat in order to achieve additional benefits against cardiovascular risk factors.

The EUROLIVE Study. ConclusionsThe EUROLIVE Study. Conclusions

Page 35: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Recommendations which stem from the EUROLIVE study are:

• Among the olive oils with a taste that better suits personal preferences, the best choice is that with the highest phenolic content.

• For health policy makers, the phenolic content of an olive oil should be present in the olive oil labels.

The EUROLIVE Study. ConclusionsThe EUROLIVE Study. Recommendations

Olive oils with high phenolic content are stronger, and, in general more bitter and greener than those with low phenolic content.

Olive oil must not be taken as a medicine.

Page 36: Aceite de oliva composicion y salud hecho por medicos barcelona 2006

Daily consumption of high phenolic olive oil did not compromise the endogenous antioxidant enzymes. In some studies, polyphenol-rich food and antioxidant supplementation led to a decrease in these enzymes, presumably due to a lack of activation of their production by the decrease in free radicals.

This decrease has been considered a negative effect in situations of free radical production, such as exercise, in which the role of the antioxidant enzymes is crucial in counteracting oxidative damage

The absence of changes in plasma antioxidant vitamins suggests an

independent effect of phenolic compounds from olive oil on oxidative

damage.
