  • Cardioprotective effect of a virgin olive oil enriched with bioactive compounds in spontaneously hypertensive rats
    Vázquez, Alejandra; Sánchez-Rodriguez, Estefanía; Vargas, Félix; Montoro-Molina, Sebastián; Romero-Cuevas, Miguel; Espejo, Juan-Antonio; Vilchez, Pedro; Jaramillo, Sara; Olmo-García, Lucía; Carrasco-Pancorbo, Alegría; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel; Martínez de Victoria, Emilio; Mesa, Maria-Dolores (MDPI, 2019)
    Olive oil and its derivatives have been described to exert beneficial effects on hypertensive states and cardiovascular disease prevention. We studied the effects of chronic consumption of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), ...
  • Effects of virgin olive oils differing in their bioactive compound contents on biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammation in healthy adults: a randomized double-blind controlled trial
    Sánchez-Rodriguez, Estefanía; Biel-Glesson, Sara; Fernández-Navarro, Jose-Ramón; Calleja, Miguel Angel; Espejo-Calvo, Juan A.; Gil-Extremera, Blas; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel; Vilchez, Pedro; Alche, Juan de Dios; Martínez de Victoria, Emilio; Gil, Angel; Mesa, Maria-Dolores (MDPI, 2019)
    A regular consumption of virgin olive oil (VOO) is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. We aimed to assess whether the raw intake of an optimized VOO (OVOO, 490 ppm of phenolic compounds and 86 ppm of ...
  • Effects of virgin olive oils differing in their bioactive compound contents on metabolic syndrome and endothelial functional risk biomarkers in healthy adults: a randomized double-blind controlled trial
    Sánchez-Rodriguez, Estefanía; Lima-Cabello, Elena; Biel-Glesson, Sara; Fernández-Navarro, Jose-Ramón; Calleja, Miguel Angel; Roca Bigorra, Maria; Espejo-Calvo, Juan A.; Gil-Extremera, Blas; Soria-Florido, Maria; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel; Alche, Juan de Dios; Martínez de Victoria, Emilio; Gil, Angel; Mesa, Maria-Dolores (MDPI, 2018)
    The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of virgin olive oils (VOOs) enriched with phenolic compounds and triterpenes on metabolic syndrome and endothelial function biomarkers in healthy adults. The trial was a ...
  • From green technology to functional olive oils: assessing the best combination of olive tree-related extracts with complementary bioactivities
    Hernáez, Álvaro; Jaramillo, Sara; García Borrego, Aránzazu; Espejo-Calvo, Juan A.; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel; Blanchart, Gemma; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Carrasco-Pancorbo, Alegría; Mesa, Maria-Dolores; Fernández Prior, Maria África; Castañer, Olga; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat (MDPI, 2021)
    Our aim was to assess the combination of olive tree-related extracts with the most favorable profile of in vitro bioactive properties. We tested the antioxidant (increment of low-density lipoprotein resistance against ...
  • May bioactive compounds from the olive fruit improve the postprandial insulin response in healthy adults?
    Sánchez-Rodriguez, Estefanía; Vázquez Aguilar, Laura Alejandra; Biel-Glesson, Sara; Fernández-Navarro, Jose-Ramón; Espejo-Calvo, Juan A.; Olmo Peinado, Jose Maria; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel; Romero, Concepción; Brenes, Manuel; Martínez de Victoria, Emilio; Gil, Angel; Mesa, Maria-Dolores (Elsevier, 2021)
    Scope. The postprandial effects of virgin olive oils (VOOs) enriched with phenolic compounds and triterpenes from the olive fruit on plasma glucose and insulin (primary outcomes), and gastrointestinal hormones responses ...
  • The NUTRAOLEOUM Study, a randomized controlled trial, for achieving nutritional added value for olive oils
    Biel-Glesson, Sara; Mesa, Maria-Dolores; Torre Fornell, Rafael de la; Espejo, Juan-Antonio; Fernández-Navarro, Jose-Ramón; Fitó Colomer, Montserrat; Sánchez-Rodriguez, Estefanía; Rosa, Carmen; Marchal, Rosa; de Dios Alche, Juan; Expósito, Manuela; Brenes, Manuel; Gandul, Beatriz; Calleja, Miguel Angel; Covas Planells, Maria Isabel (BioMed Central, 2016)
    Background: Virgin olive oil, a recognized healthy food, cannot be consumed in great quantities. We aim to assess in humans whether an optimized virgin olive oil with high phenolic content (OVOO, 429 mg/Kg) and a functional ...
