Bryan Johnson says most olive oil studies lack quality verification, so he built a supply chain sourcing fresh EVOO from both hemispheres. He'll share what to look for when buying, and prefers the peppery flavor of high-quality oil over the bland versions he grew up with.
We had this problem where we knew how strong the evidence was for the health benefits of extra virgin olive oil. But we couldn't rely upon the quality and the guarantees of others. We were kind of chasing it like, where's your certificate of analysis? What are the levels? When is the harvest? So we decided to fix the problem ourselves and we started a supply chain acquiring this extra virgin olive oil from both hemispheres to always have a fresh harvest. In the notes below, I'm going to post the criteria that you want to look for when buying your extra virgin olive oil that matches with the scientific evidence used for the studies. And so you can buy it from me or find another supplier. I'm good either way. Do your thing. I love the extra virgin olive oil. It's so different than what I grew up with. Like I had it a few times as a kid. It was just kind of bland and taste, this is rich and peppery. So it's been a fun game. But yes, it adds a spice and fun to all my food.
