OliveHeart

Development of a "smart" olive-based nutritional supplement for patients with coronary artery disease and metabolic syndrome

The Project

The present project focuses on the olive tree, a key element of Greek vegetation. The project methodology includes 6 work packages with interrelated and complementary actions as shown in the diagram.

The idea for this research proposal came both from the already successful collaboration of the two companies participating in the program (Unipharma and Pharmagnose) with the development of Olivomed and from the experience and collaboration of all partners in the study of natural products with beneficial actions.

The objective of the OliveHeart proposal is the development of a new, innovative nutritional product based on a “smart mix” of active ingredients of the olive (Olivomed-Smart) as well as the further investigation of the action of the existing Olivomed product based on detailed research and scientific documentation.
