Thanks to its nutritional and bioactive profile, VIRENS offers potential health benefits strongly supported by medical research. Here are some of the key components and their associated benefits:
Vitamin E (tocopherols):
VIRENS is a natural source of vitamin E, an essential nutrient with antioxidant properties. Daily intake helps protect cells from oxidative stress, according to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). This antioxidant role is especially important in aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and cellular damage.
Moreover, vitamin E’s effect is enhanced when combined with phenolic compounds, increasing its power to protect cells—as shown in studies by Dr. Francisco Pérez Jiménez, the CORDIOPREV team (IMIBIC), and by Dr. Dolores Corella Piquer and her team in 2020 through the PREDIMED study.
Healthy unsaturated fats:
VIRENS is rich in monounsaturated fats, especially oleic acid. Scientific evidence shows these healthy fats help maintain normal cholesterol levels and reduce cardiovascular risk (PREDIMED study; López-Miranda, 2021). Both PREDIMED and CORDIOPREV have shown how EVOO-rich diets improve cardiometabolic health markers.
Phenolic compounds:
The phenolics in VIRENS are the stars behind its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and protective properties. EFSA recognizes that olive oil polyphenols protect blood lipids from oxidative damage—provided a minimum of 5 mg per 20 g of oil consumed daily is reached.

The combination of all these elements makes VIRENS a preventive ally. It helps reduce oxidative stress, supports cardiovascular health, and counteracts inflammation.

How to consume it
To enjoy its full benefits, we recommend a daily intake of 35 ml (about two tablespoons). The ideal way is raw—on an empty stomach, or as a dressing for vegetables, legumes, whole-grain bread, or even yogurt. It can also be used in low-temperature cooking, though its maximum functional effect is preserved when not heated.
Medical recommendations
VIRENS can be part of dietary approaches aimed at:
● Cholesterol control and cardiovascular health
● Reducing oxidative cellular stress (anti-aging)
● Preventing chronic inflammation
● Cancer prevention
● Supporting people with metabolic syndrome or insulin resistance
