Cosmos Health Inc. announced the U.S. launch of Oliv18, expanding its science-driven 18 Series nutraceutical platform into cardiovascular and antioxidant categories. Oliv18 is formulated with a whole olive polyphenol extract derived from the fruit and leaf of olive trees cultivated in the Moroccan stretch of the Saharan Desert. The extract is USDA and EU organic certified, produced using a 100% solvent-free process, free from any hydrolysis or waste-water processing, and standardized to hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein.

Hydroxytyrosol is the most studied polyphenol in olive oil, characterised by efficient absorption and recognised as the highest Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) polyphenol, and exclusive to olives, olive oil, and wine. It is estimated that a single 250 mg daily dose of Oliv18 delivers polyphenols equivalent to approximately 11 teaspoons of good quality extra virgin olive oil and meets European Food Safety Authority?s 5 mg/day hydroxytyrosol minimum dose for protection against LDL oxidation. Oliv18 is a whole olive polyphenol supplement sourced from olive fruit and leaf from the Moroccan Saharan desert, USDA and EU organic certified, made using a 100% solvent-free process with no hydrolysis or waste-water processing.

Key actives include 11% total polyphenols, including 7% oleuropein and 3% hydroxytyrosol. The daily dose is 250 mg per day, which is a clinically studied serving size. Oliv18 meets EFSA's 5 mg/day hydroxytyrosol minimum dose for LDL oxidation protection and the daily equivalent is approximately 11 teaspoons of good quality extra virgin olive oil.
