Lab Results - Current Release
Harvested Early 2025 · Third party tested for potency, purity, and freshness · High Polyphenol Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This snapshot outlines the independently tested quality markers of the current Lumen One release.
We collaborate with selected Australian growers and define clear production standards around harvest timing, fruit integrity, and extraction conditions.
Every batch is independently lab tested before release, confirming it meets our internal benchmarks for polyphenols, freshness, and purity.
Total Polyphenols: 485 mg/kg
Polyphenols are the powerful plant compounds linked to heart, brain, and cellular health. Most standard olive oils test significantly lower than the levels used in clinical research.
Our oil consistently tests above 400 mg/kg, so you can feel confident you’re getting a truly functional olive oil.
Free Fatty Acids (FFA): 0.19%
Free fatty acids are a key marker of freshness and olive quality. Lower numbers mean the olives were healthy and processed quickly after harvest.
At under 0.3%, this result is far below the extra virgin threshold, indicating exceptional freshness, a cleaner taste, and longer shelf life.
Oleic Acid & MUFAs: 69.5%
Oleic acid is the primary monounsaturated fat (MUFA) in olive oil, linked to heart, brain, and metabolic health.
At around 70% oleic acid, our oil sits comfortably in the high oleic range. Higher MUFAs support healthy cholesterol balance, reduce inflammation, and help protect the oil itself from oxidation.
Peroxide Value: 7.2 meq O₂/kg
Peroxide value measures early oxidation. The lower the number, the fresher the oil and the more antioxidants remain intact.
This result indicates excellent stability at bottling, helping preserve nutritional value and supporting your health for months after opening.
UV Coefficients: K232 <2.0 · K268 <0.13
These values detect early and late stage oxidation that can’t be seen or tasted.
Remaining well under these limits confirms the oil is in peak condition, with no signs of deterioration and strong oxidative stability.
Heavy Metals: Below laboratory detection limits
Arsenic: <0.010 mg/kg
Cadmium: <0.05 mg/kg
Lead: <0.010 mg/kg
Mercury: <0.05 mg/kg
Even trace contaminants can accumulate in the body over time, which is why every batch is screened before bottling.
All measured values were below laboratory detection limits, indicating no detectable heavy metal contamination in this batch.
This snapshot highlights the key markers we track most closely: polyphenol content, freshness, purity, and stability, based on independent testing at bottling from the current 2025 harvest.
As with all olive oil, natural oxidation means values can shift slightly over time. When stored correctly, the oil remains well within extra virgin standards throughout its shelf life, and every future harvest will be independently tested to the same standards.
