As if olive oil weren't healthy enough, Italica imports, one of the top manufacturers and distributors of Spanish olive oil in the United States, has rolled out the world's first extra virgin olive oil enriched with omega-3 fatty acids. Derived from hake, salmon, and codfish, the omega-3s in the new product are incorporated into an artfully blended combination of selected oil varieties during the bottling stage. Omega-3s, or essential fatty acids, have been shown in studies to positively affect overall cardiovascular and physiological health. As the Scarsdale, N.Y-based company points out, now consumers can "protect the heart, soothe the joints, and lower cholesterol while enjoying the delicious flavor of pure Spanish olive oil." The suggested retail price for a 17-ounce unbreakable plastic bottle is $7.99. Learn more by calling (800) 431-1529 or visiting www.italicaoliveoil.com.
