Batch 002: Lab Snapshot
Harvested May 2025 · Third party tested in for potency, purity, and freshness · High Polyphenol Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This lab report reflects the oil from our May 2025 harvest. Future harvests will always undergo fresh third party testing before release.
Every harvest we release is tested for polyphenols above 400 mg/kg, ultra low oxidation, and heavy metals. This is our promise that what you’re taking daily is potent, pure, and genuinely beneficial for your health.
Total Polyphenols: >400 mg/kg
Polyphenols are the powerful plant compounds linked to heart, brain, and cellular health. Many olive oils don’t come close to the levels used in clinical studies. Batch 001 is well above them, so you can feel confident you’re getting a truly functional oil.
Free Fatty Acids (FFA): <0.1%
(Standard extra virgin requires <0.8%, and premium brands usually sit <0.2%)
Low FFA means your oil was made from healthy, undamaged olives and processed quickly after harvest. This number is a freshness marker and ours is far lower than required for “extra virgin” status, meaning a cleaner taste and longer shelf life.
Oleoc Acid & MUFAs: ~70%
(Minimum for extra virgin: 55%)
Oleic acid is the primary monounsaturated fat (MUFA) in olive oil, linked to heart, brain, and metabolic health. Batch 001 sits at ~70% oleic acid, well within the high oleic range. High MUFAs support healthy cholesterol balance, reduce inflammation, and help stabilise the oil itself, meaning both better health outcomes and greater freshness over time.
Peroxide Value: <11 meq O₂/kg
(Extra virgin limit: ≤20)
Peroxide value measures how much your oil has oxidised. The lower, the fresher and the more antioxidants are preserved. This result means Batch 001 is stable, potent, and ready to support your health for months after opening.
UV Coefficients: K232 <2.3 · K268 <0.15
(Extra virgin limits: K232 ≤2.50, K268 ≤0.22)
These numbers detect early or late stage spoilage that can’t be seen or tasted yet. Staying under these limits means our oil is in peak condition, with no signs of deterioration and optimal stability.
Heavy Metals: None detected
(Should always be undetectable. Even tiny amounts can build up in the body over time)
Every batch is screened for contaminants like lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. None were found just pure, potent oil you can trust every day.
A full lab report is all raw data, precise but hard to interpret. This snapshot highlights what actually matters most: polyphenols, freshness, purity, and stability. The values shown come from independent testing at bottling from our May 2025 harvest. As with all olive oil, natural oxidation means these numbers slowly change over time, but when stored correctly, the oil remains well within extra virgin standards throughout its shelf life. Future harvests will always be independently tested before release.
What Makes Olive Oil Actually Healthy? Polyphenols.
Low Polyphenols = Low Benefit. That’s why we cold press early harvest olives and bottle in UV resistant glass to lock in rare plant compounds with powerful antioxidant and anti inflammatory effects.
Most olive oils don’t have enough. Ours does.

We Were Tired of Olive Oil That Doesn’t Work
Most olive oils are low in polyphenols and even the ones that claim otherwise rarely show proof. We started LumenFoods to change that.
Lumen One EVOO is third party tested and carefully crafted to retain the polyphenols that actually support brain, heart, and metabolic health. It's built to deliver what most olive oils only promise.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Sets Our High Polyphenol Olive Oil Apart?
LumenFoods EVOO is crafted for longevity, not just taste. We guarantee ≥400mg/kg polyphenols, high oleic acid levels, and low free fatty acids. Every batch is independently lab tested for purity and potency.
From early harvest olives to UV resistant bottles, every detail is designed to preserve the oil’s health benefits at every stage.
Why Is Polyphenol Count Important?
Because it determines the real health benefits. Most olive oils have <100mg/kg. Ours contains over 400mg/kg meaning more anti inflammatory, anti aging, and heart protective power in every drop.
How Do I Use It?
One tablespoon a day. Drizzle it over meals, use in dressings, or take straight.
While some polyphenols are reduced during cooking, our EVOO starts with such a high antioxidant load that it still outperforms standard oils even after heat exposure.
Will It Taste Good?
Yes, but this oil isn’t about “notes of fig and pepper.”
It’s robust, grassy, and bold. Exactly what high polyphenol oil should taste like. Take it straight or drizzle it on your plate. You’ll feel the difference.
