Olivina is the only premium branded health margarine
made with extra light flavoured olive oil,
imported from the Mediterranean. Olivina
margarine contains 11% of the recommended
daily intake of vitamin A and 33% of vitamin
D (based on a 10g serving).
In 1999, Olivina margarine
was reformulated to improve its health
benefits. The new improved formula is:
- Lower in saturated fats (saturated
fats raise blood cholesterol)
- Cholesterol free (a diet low in cholesterol
can reduce the risk of heart disease)
- Non-hydrogenated and hence contains
less saturated fat (vs. fully or partially hydrogenated
margarines) and no trans fatty acids (which raise
blood cholesterol).
