When asked “what one thing should I do to improve my diet?”, I suggest extra virgin olive oil.

✅ EVOO BUYING CRITERIA
These are the main criteria my team and I used to source a Blueprint EVOO:

1. Cold pressed

2. High polyphenol count (over 400 mg/kg)
- Blueprint EVOO has 523.4 mg/kg total biophenols (HPLC)

3. High Oleic acid count (over 67%)
• Our current Blueprint EVOO (May Harvest 2023) has 72.26% oleic acid

4. Harvest Date
• Where possible, try to find EVOO with a recent harvest date. This lets you know when the olives were picked.
• The fresher the olives, the more nutrients they’ll have.

5. UV protectant bottle

6. Third-Party Tested
• Every single batch of oil needs to be quality tested by a trustworthy third party, so you know that it is what it says on the bottle.
• BP is rigorously 3rd-party tested - see the website for more information.

🔬EVOO STUDIES
The health benefits of EVOO are backed up by a lot of research. Here are some of the studies we consulted:

• Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7468912/

• Antioxidant status: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34716791/

• Cardiovascular risk: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31378629/

• Blood–Brain Barrier Function: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9736478/

• All-Cause Mortality: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35258870/

• Body composition and blood pressure: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28808791/

• Coronary Heart Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34372670/

Develop blueprint for most nutritious food product in history

The speaker is developing a 'blueprint product' intended to be the most nutritious food in history on a dollar-for-dollar, calorie-for-calorie basis.

Identify quality EVOO by its peppery taste and cough response

A sign of high-quality, potent extra virgin olive oil is a rich, peppery taste that is strong enough to make you cough when you drink it straight.

Source extra virgin olive oil from both hemispheres for freshness

To guarantee a fresh harvest year-round, the speaker's company sources its extra virgin olive oil from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

Choose high-quality olive oil for optimal health benefits

Just as a Snickers bar isn't healthy chocolate, most store-bought olive oil lacks the high polyphenol and oleic acid content needed for health benefits.
