Medoliva PLUS is a natural extract of olive fruit polyphenols and citrus/lemon fruit juice and extracts encapsulated in maltodextrin or other similar food-grade carrier, via freeze-drying. Only pure water and no heating is used for its extraction and drying, so it is a totally green process without use of chemical solvents, which ensures optimal bio functionality and high antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. The product contains natural hydrotyrosol, tyrosol, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, anthocyanes, catechins and natural antioxidant olive and citrus/lemon fruit polysaccharides. The micro encapsulation of the freeze-dried product provides significant flavor and color reduction, resistance to high temperature, and gradual release of polyphenols.
