Summary

The consumption of the improved extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) of the Corbella variety could have a beneficial effect on the microbiota-intestine-brain axis (MGBA). Olive oil contains polyphenols that are not present in other oils, notably oleocanthal and oleacein, which behave similarly to ibuprofen and have a protective effect on some neurodegenerative diseases. The polyphenols of the oil present prebiotic characteristics, at the level of the intestinal microbiota, which metabolizes them forming bioactive metabolites that can have a modulating effect on the MGBA, improving brain health. In this study, the researchers seek to identify the benefits of the consumption of Corbella variety EVOO on MGBA in healthy participants. The overall benefit of the study would be to achieve knowledge that would allow its future applicability to prevent and improve certain diseases and in general contribute to optimal health.
