The Health Benefits of Fragata Home‑Style Green Queen Olives

When it comes to adding a burst of Mediterranean flavor to your meals, Fragata Home‑Style Green Queen Olives (670g) stand out—not only for their taste but also for their impressive health profile. In this blog, we’ll delve into the numerous health benefits of green Queen olives and explore why Fragata’s home‑style processing makes them an ideal choice for your pantry.


1. Heart‑Healthy Monounsaturated Fats

Green olives are naturally rich in monounsaturated fats—particularly oleic acid—which research shows can help:

  • Lower “bad” LDL cholesterol: By reducing oxidation of LDL particles, these fats support healthier blood lipid profiles.

  • Maintain healthy blood pressure: Diets emphasizing monounsaturated fats have been linked to better vascular function and balanced blood pressure levels.

Fragata’s cold‑brining technique preserves the delicate oleic acid content, ensuring each olive delivers maximum heart‑protective benefits.


2. Potent Antioxidant Power

Olives are small but mighty when it comes to antioxidants:

  • Oleuropein & Hydroxytyrosol: Unique to olives, these polyphenols combat oxidative stress and inflammation throughout the body.

  • Vitamin E: A fat‑soluble antioxidant that protects cell membranes from free‑radical damage.

Fragata’s home‑style curing process avoids harsh chemicals, so these naturally occurring antioxidants remain intact—giving you a purer, more potent olive.


3. Natural Anti‑Inflammatory Properties

Chronic inflammation is a root factor in many health conditions. The bioactive compounds in green olives help:

  • Modulate inflammatory pathways: By downregulating pro‑inflammatory enzymes, olives can support joint health and overall immune balance.

  • Soothe digestive discomfort: Their natural oils can aid gut lining repair and promote a balanced microbiome.

Fragata selects only the highest‑grade olives at peak ripeness and employs gentle fermentation, which enhances their anti‑inflammatory profile without adding unwanted additives.

At roughly 5–7 calories per olive and negligible carbs, these pitted green Queen olives make for:

  • A satiating, guilt‑free snack: The healthy fats help curb cravings and stabilize blood sugar.

  • A keto‑ and paleo‑friendly option: Fits seamlessly into low‑carb and whole‑food diets.
