Organic Greek Olive Oil is made only from Green Olives from the Island of Lesvos
Just like fine wine, the flavour, colour, and consistency of olive oils vary. This is due to different olive varieties, location, and weather. The olive oils of some small Greek producers are treated and priced just like fine vintage wines. The flavour and character of olive oil is determined by the exact type of tree, the soil and its position, how much sunshine it get, and so on.
Hand-picking is the most successful as the olives are undamaged. The timing of the harvest can also affect the flavour and colour of the olive oil. Once picked the olives should be pressed within 12 to 24 hours so no fermentation takes place causing acidity to rise. The lower the acidity the better the oil

In an uncontrolled trial by Dr Robert Lyons O.M.D., M.S., Eden extract (6) which contains extract from olive leaves resulted in 115 out of 119 patients with respiratory tract infections fully recovering. 60 out of 67 patients with dental infections (pulpitis, leukoplakia, stoma-titis), 120 out of 172 patients with viral skin conditions (e.g. herpes) and 30 out of 37 patients with skin infections (e.g. pyoderma and injuries). Furthermore, although not all of the patients fully recovered after taking the extract, none of them reported that they had not improved as a result of the treatment.
The report concluded that the rate of improvement and recovery from all bacterial and viral infections was approximately 98 per cent, and for all patients involved in the study, the body’s immune system was found to be strengthened. No patients experienced any adverse side effects.

Our Northern Minnesota wild rice is hand harvested the old way, in a canoe. This traditional gathering rite has been used by our ancestors for generations. Our wild rice grows naturally in the lakes and river beds on the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. This mouth watering nutty taste cannot be compared to the mass produced paddy rice.
